What Is Rosacea?

Rosacea is an inflammatory skin condition that affects the facial blood vessels, leading to visible redness, heat, or bumps. It tends to develop gradually and may worsen over time without treatment.

While rosacea isn’t contagious, it can flare up due to heat, stress, spicy food, or certain skincare products. Because symptoms vary, personalised care is key to managing it effectively.

Types of Rosacea

Rosacea can present in different forms, and individuals may experience more than one type at a time:

  • Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea: Persistent redness and visible blood vessels (telangiectasia)
  • Papulopustular Rosacea: Red bumps or pimples resembling acne
  • Phymatous Rosacea: Skin thickening, usually around the nose (rhinophyma)
  • Ocular Rosacea: Affects the eyes, causing redness, dryness, or irritation
  • Neurogenic Rosacea: A less common subtype involving burning, stinging, or flushing

What Causes Rosacea?

The exact cause of rosacea is still unclear, but several contributing factors have been identified:

  • Abnormal blood vessel function
  • Genetic predisposition
  • Immune system overactivity
  • Environmental triggers: Sun, heat, wind, or cold
  • Dietary triggers: Spicy foods, alcohol, hot drinks
  • Stress and emotional changes
  • Use of harsh skincare products
  • Microorganisms: Such as Demodex mites, which may aggravate symptoms
