Rosacea
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition
It causes facial redness, visible blood vessels, bumps, and skin sensitivity. It often affects the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin, and can flare up in cycles.
It’s not curable, but it can be controlled with proper skincare, treatment, and lifestyle adjustments.
