What is Rosacea?
More than 14 million people in North America have rosacea, a chronic skin condition. Women, fair-skinned people between the ages of 30 and 60 are more likely to be affected.

Symptoms and signs of rosacea include:

Areas of redness on your face

Small red bumps or pustules on your nose, cheeks, forehead, and/or chin

Small blood vessels on your nose and/or cheeks (called telangiectasia)

Tendency to flush or blush

Rosacea may also result in a red, bulbous nose, called rhinophyma, or a burning or gritty sensation in your eyes, called ocular rosacea.
