Rosacea + treatment with botox for flushing (iontophoresis)

What is "Iontophoresis"? This will apparently allow the drug to be delivered with more accuracy to the right depth in the skin. As someone who has had botox injections experimentally to try and treat rosacea and rosacea flushing, this is a step forwards. I had a frozen face for 2-3 months and effect on flushing was difficult to gauge. There have been very mixed reports on botox for facial flushing and redness, based on my personal experiences I would not recommend this to others (for the face).

This powerpoint presentation gives a useful background to iontophoresis
