About Rosacea
Rosacea is a common long-term inflammatory condition that mainly affects the face. Symptoms vary from person to person and may include persistent redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, spots or bumps, and increased sensitivity. Although it’s a long-term condition, a range of effective treatments exists to reduce symptoms and keep flare-ups to a minimum — and identifying your personal triggers is often half the battle.

Rosacea FAQs
There’s currently no cure — but that’s not the same as nothing working. Most people achieve good control of their symptoms with the right combination of trigger management, skincare and treatment.
Not always. Depending on the type and severity of your rosacea, your plan may involve skincare and lifestyle measures, topical treatment, or oral medication where appropriate.
Triggers are personal, but common ones include sun exposure, hot drinks, alcohol, spicy food, temperature changes and stress. Pinpointing yours is an important part of your plan.
