M89, a combination of 89% of vichy volcanic mineralizing water and hyaluronic acid is beneficial as an adjunct for the management of rosacea: results from an observational international study

INTRODUCTION

Rosacea is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease characterised by persistent erythema associated with periodic intensification or ‘flares’. Fixed centrofacial erythema is a characteristic feature, others being flushing, papules, pustules and telangiectasia. M89 contains 89% Vichy volcanic mineralizing water (VVMW) and 0.4% hyaluronic acid. It is hypoallergenic and contains no perfume, thus being suitable for subjects with rosacea. VVMW originates from the French volcanic region and contains 15 minerals with a total mineral concentration of 5.2g/l. These minerals reinforce the natural defences of the skin in restoring the natural skin barrier, stimulating antioxidant activity and reducing inflammation, which is commonly observed in subjects with rosacea.
