We founded this site so the fourteen million Americans, and countless others internationally, who suffer with this very treatable condition have a place to find answers. The most common symptom involves the growth of telangiectasia, which are small blood vessels that form just under the surface of the skin causing redness and in some cases excessive tissue growth. This is often seen on the nose, cheeks, chin, forehead and even eyes in the case of “ocular rosacea”. Diffuse redness on the face is the hallmark sign of rosacea. Perhaps a condition called rhinophyma, an abnormal growth of the tissue on the nose, is the most troubling manifestation of rosacea. Many adult sufferers of rosacea are not aware they even have the condition, and if they do make the connection between their symptoms and a diagnosis, they do not realize how treatable it is. Research performed over the last several years into new lasers and topical regimens has develop new methods for controlling rosacea which has revolutionized the management of this skin problem. Our goal is to give patients access to this new knowledge.
