Rosacea

What is it

The disease only affects the skin of the face, it affects people of mature age. This is both a medical and an aesthetic problem. The first symptom is frequent reddening of the skin under the influence of various physical (temperature changes, sun, wind, alcohol) and mental (emotions) stimuli.

The reasons

It occurs on the basis of seborrhea and vasomotor disorders. The rapid reaction to external stimuli causes the vessels, deprived of elasticity, to widen, creating poured erythema. The changes affect the nose, cheeks and the space between the eyebrows, a feeling of heat on the face after drinking warm drinks and alcohol, also when entering a warm room. Skin changes take the form of erythematous, papular or pustular changes depending on the severity of the acne. Then, small, dilated vessels appear. Inflammation of the conjunctiva and the margins of the eyelids is observed as frequent complications. The course of the disease is usually many years.

A properly selected treatment usually brings a definite improvement. Both external and oral treatment are always selected individually.
