Treatment of rosacea skin

According to a previous study, 10% of the population is affected by this skin condition, though there are geographical variations, and age and gender also influence susceptibility to symptoms. In most cases, the condition first appears in people in their thirties or forties, but in some instances, symptoms may develop even earlier.

Stage 1: permanent redness (rosacea erythematosa-teleangiectatica)

In many cases, facial blushing appears simultaneously on the forehead, nose, chin and cheeks, and may be persistent or intermittent. Initially, it appears in small patches, but later these patches may converge to form a larger area of redness. If this unpleasant symptom is accompanied by inflammation, it is called rosacea erythematosa-teleangiectatic. At this stage, people also report a burning, stinging sensation, itching or dry skin. In rarer cases, there may also be reddening around the eye or swelling of the eye itself.

2. Stage 2: pustules (Rosacea papulopustulosa)

In addition to the already established inflamed blood vessels, inflammatory lesions can also be seen around the parathyroid glands. These appear as bumps on the skin, which must not be removed by pressing. Their treatment requires the right active ingredients for the skin and the right expertise! These acne-like bumps are often mistaken for acne!

3. Stage 3: swelling of the skin

Hypertrophic: characterized by tissue hyperpigmentation and redness, dilated pores, capillaries and sore nodules on the skin surface. Inflammation causes the skin to thicken in the affected areas.

The symptoms of rhinophyma are concentrated in the nose, causing the nose to become distorted and enlarged. Rhinophyma is caused by an overgrowth of the parotid glands and connective tissue of the nose.

Even though the causes of rosacea are still unknown, the following factors may have an impact :

• hereditary factors
• stomach and intestinal diseases
• blood pressure fluctuation
• hormonal changes
• Factors that cause warming, vasodilation (e.g. alcohol, coffee, hot foods, strong spices)
• suspected bacterial background, skin flora upset (e.g. skin rash)

As the causes of rosacea are not clear, it is recommended that people with genetic heredity should pay attention to avoiding the following in order to avoid the onset of rosacea:

• Hot drinks, alcohol (may cause blood vessels to pop)
• Spicy food, spicy diet
• Too hot or extremely cold (also damages the vascular network)

• Nervousness, tantrums, violent emotions and consequent fluctuations in blood pressure
• Non-professional cosmetics not recommended by a professional
• Strong medicines, chemicals

In addition to genetic background, the development of rosacea has been linked to certain microorganisms, so the Facial care and cleansing, hygiene is also a very important factor, but you should strive to use skin-friendly cosmetics recommended by a professional.
