Rosacea is a common skin disease that causes redness and swelling on the face. Often referred to as “adult acne,” rosacea may begin as a tendency to flush or blush easily, and progress to persistent redness in the center of the face that may gradually involve the cheeks, forehead, chin and nose. It also may involve the ears, chest and back. As the disease progresses, small blood vessels and tiny pimples begin to appear on and around the reddened area; however, unlike acne, there are no blackheads.

When it first develops, rosacea may come and go on its own. When the skin doesn’t return to its normal color and when other symptoms, such as pimples and enlarged blood vessels, become visible, it’s best to seek advice from a dermatologist. The condition rarely reverses itself and may last for years. It can become worse without treatment.

Pimples of rosacea appear on the face as small, red bumps, some of which may contain pus. These may be accompanied by the development of many tiny blood vessels on the surface of the skin persistent redness of the face.
