Rosacea

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that causes redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small, raised bumps on the face.

Rosacea and persistent facial redness can cause chronic irritation, sensitivity, and visible flushing that affects both comfort and confidence. While rosacea is a long-term skin condition, effective treatments can help calm redness, reduce flare-ups, strengthen the skin barrier, and improve overall skin health. 

What Is Rosacea? 

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that typically causes: 

  • Flushing or persistent facial redness 
  • Visible blood vessels (telangiectasia) 
  • Small, red bumps that may resemble acne 
  • Skin thickening: in some cases, especially around the nose, the skin may gradually become thickened and develop a swollen or bumpy appearance 
  • Eye symptoms such as dryness, irritation, or redness may also occur in some individuals, particularly alongside facial symptoms 

Commonly affecting the cheeks, nose, and chin, rosacea is often triggered by heat, spicy food, alcohol, or emotional stress. Though its cause is not fully understood, it tends to flare in cycles and can worsen without proper care. 

Common Causes & Triggers 

  • Heat and sun exposure 
  • Spicy foods and alcohol 
  • Emotional stress 
  • Exercise or hot beverages 
  • Genetics and skin sensitivity 

Prevention & Maintenance Tips 

  • Use a daily broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher 
  • Avoid known triggers when possible 
  • Stick to gentle, fragrance-free skincare 
  • Avoid harsh exfoliants or hot water when cleansing
