We investigated how well zinc penetrates the skin in individuals with rosacea, a common condition that affects skin barrier function. Using a non-invasive technique called reflectance confocal microscopy, we compared the skin barrier permeability between those with rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and healthy individuals.
Our results revealed that zinc penetration was greater in patients with rosacea compared to those with healthy skin. Specifically, we observed higher intensity readings of zinc at a depth of 8 micrometers in the skin of rosacea patients. This indicates that their skin barrier might be more compromised in the upper layers.
Interestingly, when comparing both conditions, we found that patients with atopic dermatitis showed greater zinc penetration at deeper layers of the skin. This suggests subtle differences in how these two conditions affect skin barriers. Overall, the findings suggest that patients with rosacea experience increased permeability in the upper layers of the skin due to weakened barrier function.

Zinc has become a noteworthy player in helping manage rosacea, a skin condition characterized by redness and bumps that can be quite distressing. We examined various studies that assessed zinc’s effectiveness, particularly focusing on a 5% zinc sulfate solution.
The results were promising, showing that this zinc treatment significantly reduced the severity of acne rosacea. Specifically, nearly 40% to 60% of patients reported a moderate to good response after using the zinc solution. This suggests that zinc could be an effective option for those struggling with rosacea symptoms.
While the evidence surrounding zinc as a standalone treatment is encouraging, it’s important to remember that its effects are often part of broader treatment strategies. Thus, while zinc might offer benefits, it’s most effective when considered alongside other treatments.

Great for acne and rosacea, I began taking this for my adult acne/rosacea. I noticed a difference within about three days, and it has considerably reduced the number of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads I experience, as well as the redness on my face. I've now switched to Thorne's zinc picolinate on the advice of a doctor specialising in nutritional medicine, as he claims that this form is much better absorbed and Thorne is a very reputable brand.
