    Default good laser dermatologist in the UK

    Hello,

    I'm knew to this forum. I have rosacea and want to get laser treatment to get rid of the symptoms. Can anyone recommend who they think is the best out there. From what I read Dr Crouch seems to be highly respected. I am wary about going to these private clilnics and being treated by someone who may know how to operate a laser but has no deep medical understanding or experience in treating rosacea.

    If you can help me find a good dermatologist I will be grateful.

    Thanks

    Elliott

    Where are you in the UK and how far would you be prepared to travel.

    I would recommend Dr Crouch, having been treated by him on numerous occasions.

    Well worth going to see Dr C. I have been very happy with my treatment at his clinic, he has a range of machines and lots of experience with treating rosaceans.

    I have had good results with IPL in the past; however seem to have hit a brick wall

    recently and need to re-think & reassess my treatment!
