Common Skin Conditions

Rosacea

What is rosacea?

Rosacea is more commonly known as “adult acne”, although many times rosacea presents as persistent facial redness without pimples. The redness with or without pimples generally occur on the central face (nose, cheeks, forehead, chin) of fair-skinned adults. Early cases of rosacea may present as a tendency to flush or blush easily, but can progress to persistent enlarged blood vessels on the face. This is a chronic condition, meaning that it cannot be cured, but it can be effectively controlled by treatment prescribed by your dermatologist. Such treatments may include topical and/or oral antibiotics, facial sunscreen, and laser surgery.
