- Facial Redness: persistent flushing or redness, particularly in the central face area like the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin
- Visible Blood Vessels: small, visible blood vessels (telangiectasia) on the skin surface, often appearing as spider-like veins
- Papules and Pustules: red bumps (papules) or pus-filled lesions (pustules) resembling acne, especially in the central face
- Burning or Stinging Sensation: skin sensitivity, often accompanied by a burning or stinging sensation

What Causes Rosacea?
Rosacea tends to run in families, suggesting a genetic predisposition to the condition. Abnormalities in facial blood vessels may contribute to flushing and persistent redness, and an exaggerated immune system response to environmental triggers can lead to inflammation and symptoms. An overgrowth of Demodex mites on the skin may also play a role in triggering symptoms. Environmental triggers including sun exposure, hot or spicy foods, alcohol, stress, and certain skincare products can further exacerbate rosacea symptoms.
Types of Rosacea
Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea is characterized by facial redness, visible blood vessels, and flushing. Papulopustular Rosacea exhibits redness, swelling, and acne-like breakouts on the face. Phymatous Rosacea leads to thickening of the skin, enlargement of the nose (rhinophyma), or changes in other facial features. Ocular Rosacea affects the eyes, causing redness, dryness, irritation, and sensitivity to light.
Treatment for Rosacea
Treatment typically involves topical medications creams or gels containing antibiotics, azelaic acid, or anti-inflammatory agents to reduce redness and inflammation and oral medications such as doxycycline or tetracycline to control inflammation and acne-like breakouts. Laser therapy, including intense pulsed light (IPL) or vascular lasers, targets blood vessels to reduce redness.
