Have you noticed that your skin looks more flushed than usual? Or you have little pimple-like bumps that tend to appear on your face when you’re feeling particularly stressed?
If that’s the case, you may be suffering from a skin condition known as rosacea.
In this article, we’ll dive a little deeper into what rosacea is, including what it looks like and what treatments are available for it.
Rosacea is a surprisingly common skin condition; in fact, the American Academy of Dermatology estimates that 1 out of every 10 Americans has it. And while the causes of rosacea remain relatively unknown, dermatologists are sure that people with a family history of rosacea are more likely to get it.
At its core, rosacea is an auto-immune skin condition that can be triggered by a number of stressors, including:
You are more likely to develop rosacea if you’re a middle-aged woman, have sun damage, smoke, and/or have a family history of rosacea.
Rosacea takes on many forms, depending on the person. It terms of what it looks like, rosacea symptoms commonly include:
Rosacea typically comes in the form of facial redness, which is particularly centered around the nose and mouth. This redness can even take the form of broken blood vessels, which are particularly prominent on the nose and cheeks.
These bumps are commonly mistaken for acne, but they’re typical symptoms associated with rosacea. If you have bumps that don’t seem to subside with acne treatments, you may actually have rosacea.
Over time and without treatment, rosacea can actually cause a thickened, enlarged nose.
There’s no known cure for rosacea, which means that people with this skin condition should focus on treating symptoms and maintaining triggers for flare-ups.
At Levy Dermatology, we can help you treat symptoms associated with rosacea, including facial redness, pimple-like bumps, and more.
