Rosacea
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition characterized by persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and often small, pus-filled bumps on the face. While commonly mistaken for acne or an allergic reaction, rosacea is distinct and can become more severe over time if untreated. It typically affects the central areas of the face, including the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead, and may cause a burning or stinging sensation.
This condition can impact anyone, but it is most common in individuals with fair skin, particularly those of Northern European descent. Flare-ups are often triggered by lifestyle and environmental factors, such as sun exposure, stress, spicy foods, alcohol, and hot or cold weather.
Effective management of rosacea involves understanding individual triggers and utilizing customized treatment options. Our dermatology team offers a comprehensive approach, including prescription medications, laser therapy, and skincare regimens to help reduce symptoms and improve skin appearance.
