Rosacea

Rosacea is a chronic condition characterised by facial redness. Spots or pimples sometimes accompany the redness. Unless it affects the eyes, it is typically a harmless cosmetic condition. It primarily affects caucasions of mainly northwestern European descent and has been nicknamed the 'curse of the Celts' by some in Ireland and the UK, but can also affect people of other ethnicities.

Rosacea affects both sexes, but is almost three times more common in women. It has a peak age of onset between 30 - 60.

Treatment options include IPL, LASER, topical preparations and medications.
