Often difficult to diagnose, rosacea requires comprehensive treatment that considers – among other factors – the major psychological impact this skin condition can have. Expert in rosacea for over 15 years, Laboratoire BIODERMA has incorporated the latest scientific advances into the new SENSIBIO AR+ range. Find out how this new complete skincare routine can make your life easier and your skin more comfortable.
Rosacea is a skin condition that affects around 5%* of the world population. Until recently, it was rarely spoken about, despite being one of the most visible skin conditions leading to unpredictable “flare-ups” that redden the skin. Facial redness often provokes disparaging remarks and judgments, particularly as the condition remains little-known and is often erroneously associated with alcoholism, holism, sunburn or poor hygiene.
Those affected also experience unpleasant sensations that are invisible, but omnipresent. Rosacea can cause psychological suffering and have a significant impact on quality of life.
How do you get rid of rosacea? This is a common and legitimate question, but for the moment, there is no treatment. However, there are effective ways to control and learn to live with the symptoms.

Living with rosacea means first and foremost learning to accept the way other people look at you, as the facial redness is visible and difficult to conceal – your efforts may well make it worse. As well as the visible signs, you are constantly reminded of your condition with heating, tingling and burning sensations, which are hard to ignore.
Every morning, a simple glance in the mirror can be a source of anxiety. You can try to control your diet, stress levels and emotions to avoid the factors that trigger flushes and flareups. As a result, your skin may end up draining your mental energy with a direct impact on your mood.
For a long time, rosacea and lasting redness were somewhat of a blind spot in dermatology. As a source of embarrassment, and even shame, they weren’t talked about. But little by little, the word is getting out via social networks and with help from influencers who have lifted the veil.
At the same time, researchers are making progress in understanding rosacea, which can still be difficult to diagnose. It is often confused with other skin problems with similar symptoms, for example, acne, eczema or lupus. Redness, flushing, visible small vessels, feelings of discomfort and overheating are the main symptoms. But it’s often best to consult a dermatologist for a professional opinion.
Specialising in sensitive skin for over 30 years, Laboratoire BIODERMA has developed deep expertise in rosacea, including patented RosactivTM technology – which efficacy has been recognised by dermatologists and consumers alike. SENSIBIO AR moisturising cream is currently No.1 in France, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Portugal, Spain and Turkey*.
In light of recent discoveries, Laboratoire BIODERMA innovated to go even further in supporting people with rosacea-prone skin to improve their comfort and quality of life. The new formulations, textures and products in the SENSIBIO AR+ range draw on Laboratoire BIODERMA's expertise, as well as user feedback and expectations when faced with a skin condition that currently has no treatment.
