Rosacea

Rosacea

Rosacea is a long-term facial skin condition characterized by the outbreak of small, red, pus-filled bumps. There is no cure for rosacea; however, some treatments can reduce its symptoms. The cause of rosacea has not yet been determined; however, studies point to a connection with the immune system, a protein, or even a skin mite.

Symptoms can include:

• Facial redness
• Acne-like bumps
• Enlarged nose
• Facial spider veins
• Swollen or thickened skin
