for Rosacea
Topical creams or serums containing green tea extract (EGCG) used to reduce facial redness, inflammation, and telangiectasia in rosacea.
How it works
EGCG inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokines and reduces angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation), addressing two key pathological features of rosacea. Also has antioxidant and UV-protective properties.
What to watch for
Product quality varies. EGCG content should be standardised. Modest results compared to prescription treatments. Use as an adjunct.
