Rosacea is a skin condition characterized by persistent redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and sometimes acne-like bumps, most commonly affecting the central face. Symptoms can vary in intensity and may come and go.
Rosacea often presents differently from person to person, making individualized care especially important.
The exact cause of rosacea is not fully understood, but it is thought to involve vascular sensitivity, inflammation, and an impaired skin barrier. Triggers may include sun exposure, heat, stress, spicy foods, and alcohol.
Because rosacea-prone skin is often more reactive, treatments must be carefully selected to avoid irritation.
