Rosacea

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that primarily affects the face, causing redness, visible blood vessels, and in some cases, small, red, pus-filled bumps. It often begins with episodes of flushing and blushing, and over time, the redness may become persistent. Rosacea typically affects the central part of the face, including the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin.

The exact cause of rosacea is not well understood, but a combination of genetic, environmental, and vascular factors is believed to contribute to its development.

  • Persistent redness

    Redness on the face, particularly on the central parts like the cheeks and nose.

  • Visible blood vessels

    Small blood vessels on the skin surface may become visible.

  • Pimples and bumps

    Some individuals with rosacea develop red, pus-filled bumps, resembling acne.

  • Eye irritation

    In some cases, rosacea can affect the eyes, causing symptoms like redness, dryness, and irritation.
