The concern
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition characterised by facial redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and sometimes, small red bumps or pustules. It typically affects the central areas of the face, such as the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin. Rosacea can cause discomfort and self-consciousness.
The Skin & Face Clinic offers treatments to reduce the visible signs of rosacea, improving self-confidence and self-esteem.
Frequently asked questions
The exact cause of rosacea is unknown, but it is believed to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors, along with abnormalities in blood vessels and an overactive immune response in the skin.
Acne is a common skin condition characterised by clogged pores, pimples, and blackheads. Rosacea, on the other hand, is a chronic skin condition causing facial redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes, small bumps, without the presence of typical acne lesions.
Rosacea treatment can vary in terms of discomfort depending on the method used, however, it is not designed to hurt.
No, there is no cure for rosacea. However, there are a number of treatments available that can help to control the symptoms and improve the appearance of the skin.
There are a number of things you can do at home to help manage your rosacea, such as:
- Avoid known triggers. Common triggers for rosacea include sun exposure, extreme temperatures, spicy foods, alcohol, and caffeine.
- Use a gentle skincare routine. Use gentle cleansers and moisturisers that are fragrance-free and non-comedogenic (meaning they won’t clog your pores).
- Wear sunscreen every day. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.
