What Is It And Why Does It Occur?

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that leads to facial redness, visible capillaries, and sensitivity. It most commonly affects the cheeks, nose, and chin, and may also present with small bumps or flushing that worsens over time.
While the exact cause is not fully understood, contributing factors include genetics, an overactive immune response, vascular irregularities, and environmental triggers such as heat, alcohol, stress, or certain skincare products. Even in mild cases, the condition can flare unpredictably, making consistent management key.

What Patients Typically Notice

Patients often describe a persistent redness that looks like a “sunburn that won’t go away.” Others notice frequent flushing, visible thread-like veins, or skin that reacts easily to changes in temperature or products. Some also experience discomfort, such as burning or stinging sensations. Beyond physical symptoms, rosacea can cause self-consciousness — particularly when flare-ups occur without warning.
