Rosacea, also referred to as "adult acne", is a common disease that affects nearly 14 million Americans. It is not clear what causes Rosacea, and there is no cure, but it can be treated. Some symptoms include redness, pustules, papules, and swelling on the face. Over time, small blood vessels and pimples will appear around the reddened area.
You should not attempt to diagnose and treat the problem yourself, as many over-the-counter medications may actually do more harm than good. Prescription medications or certain procedures, such as a photofacial, may be in your best interest. Schedule a free consultation to find out how to get your rosacea under control.
