WARNING!
Rosacea
is NOT caused by a deficiency of allopathic drugs!
The
use treatments such as topical Benzoyl peroxide, Azelaic acid,
or retinoid treatments can lead to even further irritation for
Rosacea sufferers.
Rosacea
is caused by a deficiency of nutrients.

Rosacea, often incorrectly referred
to as "adult acne" affects an estimated 14 million Americans
each year. Many misconceptions exist and I personally encounter
a bevy of “over diagnosed” patients as well. My goal
is to help clarify rosacea – its diagnosis, treatment and
what you REALLY need to know.
WHO GETS ROSACEA?
Women are more often affected by rosacea.
The condition tends to appear between the ages of 25-55.
Heredity plays a definite role in
the probability of developing rosacea. Patients with fair skin
from ethnic backgrounds such as Great Britain (including Ireland,
Scotland and Wales), Germany and Scandinavia have a predilection
towards rosacea; however, anyone of any race can develop rosacea.
Patients who’ve had a past
history of significant acne, family histories of severe acne or
rosacea have a greater incidence of rosacea.
HOW DO I KNOW I HAVE ROSACEA?
Rosacea is really a constellation of skin
symptoms, not merely limited to blemishes. While not all patients
are going to encounter all potential concerns, multiple features
at once typically surface. These include:
redness of the face
flushing
the presence of small blood vessels
("broken" blood vessels)
acne (all forms – papules,
pustules, cysts)
occasional surface irregularities
of the nose (called rhinophyma)
symptoms of redness, irritation
or the feeling of "grit" in the eyes, and sometimes
clear discharge (ocular rosacea)
skin sensitivity or dryness
oiliness
enlarged sweat glands(sebaceous
hyperplasia)
