Acne Rosacea, also known as just Rosacea, is a common skin condition that few people know about and even fewer don't know they suffer from it. Rosacea is caused by the dilation of tiny microvessels called arterioles, capillaries, and venules, which occurs close to the surface of the skin. This causes the skin to break out with blotchy red areas called papules

Rosacea is a facial rash that occurs in middle-aged men and women. It may be transient, recurrent or persistent. The cause of rosacea is unknown and it affects people mainly in their 30s and 40s. Rosacea used to be called 'acne rosacea' but it is quite different from acne.
