Entering June, the temperature around the country is gradually rising. While the weather is getting hotter, has your skin become disobedient?
Poor skin condition always makes people feel very unhappy, especially when erythema, swelling and even pus flow occur for a long time. If your face is prone to red and hot when exposed to the sun or exercising, and cannot subside for a long time, then be aware that you may have roseacne.
What is Rose Acne, why do you get Rose Acne?
Rose acne, commonly known as [rosacea], is a chronic skin disease, but it is not only related to the nose, but also commonly found on cheeks and brow, and in a few cases it will also occur behind ears, chest and back and other parts.

The main basis for diagnosis of rose acne is facial flushing. If the skin is exposed to ultraviolet rays, cold and hot stimulation, mood swings or confined environment, flushing will occur and will not subside for a long time, then it may be rose acne.
The etiology of rose acne is not completely clear at present. The most common reason for young women is improper use of skin care products and cosmetics and excessive skin care. Some skin care products and cosmetics have added hormone components, which may induce rose acne when used for a long time.
Is facial flushing necessarily rose acne?
Skin problems are usually caused by many factors, and sometimes the same manifestations may come from different reasons. Therefore, facial flushing is not necessarily rose acne, and the diagnosis must be better made by combining medical history and previous treatment methods.

Typical manifestation of rose acne, In the early stage, paroxysmal flushing or erythema appeared symmetrically in the middle of both faces or cheeks. It is often accompanied by scalding sensation, and then transitions to persistent erythema. On the basis of erythema, skin barrier function is gradually damaged (dry and itchy), with or without papules and pustules. This is a dynamic process, i.e. Vascular lesions occur first, and then skin appendages and skin barrier lesions occur.
However, the situation of some patients is just the opposite, because they suffer from acne first, problems with hair follicle sebaceous gland skin appendages, and may have used laser and other treatment methods (the skin barrier is damaged in a short period of time, and then repaired), and then symptoms such as facial flushing, scalding, dryness and itching occur.
In this case, although some skin lesions are distributed according to the pattern of rose acne and seem to meet the diagnostic criteria of rose acne, they are not rose acne and are easily misdiagnosed and confused.
What if you get rose acne?
If you have Rose Acne, you can use drugs or laser and other medical and beauty methods to treat it. At the same time, attention should be paid to the use of cosmetics and skin care products as well as daily living habits.
