Solutions for Rosacea and Facial Redness

Rosacea is a disorder of the face that results in redness, prominent blood vessels, swelling of pores, and skin eruptions similar to acne. Also called "adult acne", the cause of rosacea is unknown. It occurs most often in fair skinned people, particularly those who blush easily. Women are more commonly affected, although men are more severely affected. Symptoms usually begin to appear between ages 30 to 50, and the disorder is most often seen in middle-aged or older people.

Treatments must be individualized depending on the severity of your condition and the symptoms you want treated. At Skinzone Medical, our doctor will design a treatment plan to meet your needs. The redness, broken capillaries, and enlarged blood vessels can often be reduced in only a few visits.

Rosacea can also be associated with burning and grittiness of the eyes. This is a form of eye irritation called rosacea conjunctivitis. If you have these symptoms you should see an ophthalmologist.
