Rosacea typically affects the central face, is more common in fair-skinned people, begins after age 30 and persists with intermittent or continuous outbreaks.
Condition in
Rosacea
Overview
People with rosacea report facial redness, acne on the central face, and flushing. Triggers that can make rosacea worse include sunlight, exercise, hot or cold weather, certain foods, alcohol (especially wine), and emotional stress.
Our approach
Rosacea is not life-threatening but can be embarrassing and painful. In severe cases, especially in men, the nose may enlarge as a result of the ongoing inflammation. Medical treatment, sun protection, and avoidance of triggers can help reduce symptoms.
