Rosacea is a common and chronic skin condition that primarily affects the face, causing redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small, pus-filled bumps. It typically occurs in adults and can lead to feelings of self-consciousness and discomfort.
Persistent redness, often resembling a blush or sunburn, appears on the central parts of the face, including the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin. Small, visible blood vessels (telangiectasia) may appear on the face due to inflammation of the skin. Some people with rosacea experience papules and pustules that resemble acne. These can be painful and filled with pus. The affected skin might feel hot, tender, or stinging. In some cases, rosacea can lead to eye problems like dryness, redness, and a gritty sensation, known as ocular rosacea.
The exact cause of rosacea is not fully understood, but several factors are thought to contribute. A family history of rosacea might increase your risk of developing the condition. Blood vessels may dilate more easily, leading to redness and visible blood vessels. Skin irritation or damage might trigger the development of rosacea. Demodex mites are microscopic organisms found on the skin that might play a role in causing or exacerbating rosacea. Certain factors like sun exposure, hot beverages, spicy foods, alcohol, and extreme temperatures can trigger or worsen rosacea symptoms.
Diagnosing rosacea typically involves an examination of the affected areas by a dermatologist. There are no specific tests for rosacea, but your doctor may ask about your symptoms, triggers, and medical history to rule out other conditions.
Prescription topical creams, gels, or oral antibiotics can help reduce inflammation and control the symptoms. Laser treatments can target visible blood vessels and redness. Using gentle, non-irritating skincare products and sunscreen can help manage symptoms. Identifying and avoiding triggers that worsen symptoms is essential.
Cold compresses, green tea extracts, and natural anti-inflammatory ingredients might provide relief.
Managing rosacea is an ongoing process. It's important to follow your dermatologist's recommendations, continue your prescribed treatments, and make lifestyle adjustments to prevent flare-ups.
While you can't prevent rosacea, you can reduce its severity and frequency. Use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays with broad-spectrum sunscreen. Keep a diary of your symptoms to identify and avoid triggers that worsen your condition. Use mild, fragrance-free skincare products to avoid irritating your skin. Practice stress-reduction techniques like meditation and deep breathing.

"I can’t believe I did not know about this kind of service! This was absolutely perfect for my health concern and they were able to provide me with the necessary medication and with such cinch. Completely recommended this service. For minor health concerns, this can save you an unnecessary and costly trip to an urgent care center."
"Amazing!! Easy and fast! I didn’t have to take my 4 year old into an urgent care where only god knows what germs are there. The doctor sent the script right to my pharmacy within minutes!!!"
"I would give 10 stars if I could! CallonDoc is literally the reason I am recovering instead of suffering as I write this. I was skeptical at first, but I’m not kidding when I tell you I got prescribed my antibiotics and picked it up at the pharmacy within 2 hours. So instead of waiting & paying around 300$...I paid 40$!! I’m very pleased."
No, rosacea is different from acne although it can share some similar symptoms like bumps and redness. While there's no known cure for rosacea, it can be effectively managed with proper treatment and lifestyle adjustments.
Certain foods and beverages like spicy foods, hot drinks, alcohol, and foods high in histamines can trigger rosacea flare-ups in some individuals. Keeping a food diary and noting any correlations with symptom exacerbation can help you identify personal triggers.
Over-the-counter products might be too harsh for rosacea-prone skin and could worsen symptoms. Dermatologist-recommended prescription medications and gentle skincare routines are often more effective in managing rosacea without causing further irritation.
Yes, you can wear makeup, but it's important to choose non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic products that won't exacerbate your symptoms. Opt for mineral-based makeup and apply it gently. Always remove makeup thoroughly to prevent clogged pores and irritation.
Yes, rosacea can lead to a subtype known as ocular rosacea, causing symptoms like dryness, redness, and a gritty sensation in the eyes. To manage this, practice good eyelid hygiene, use preservative-free artificial tears, and consult with an eye doctor or dermatologist for appropriate treatment options.
