📖What is Rosacea?
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects the face, causing persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes acne-like breakouts, most commonly in fair-skinned adults over 30. The condition tends to progress through periods of flare-ups and remission, and can worsen over time if left unmanaged, occasionally leading to thickened skin, particularly around the nose. Various triggers such as sun exposure, spicy food, alcohol, and temperature extremes can provoke flushing and worsen symptoms. While not medically dangerous, rosacea can significantly affect self-esteem and quality of life due to its visible facial impact.
