Dear readers,
In this article we look at a chronic skin disease that is often undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, rosacea.
If you are affected, here’s what you need to know about rosacea to better understand and effectively manage it.
What is rosacea?
Rosacea is an inflammatory skin condition that often occurs on the face. The most common symptoms include persistent redness, visible blood vessels, papules and pustules. Although the exact cause of rosacea is unknown, genetic factors, environmental triggers and the presence of Demodex mites all play a role.
Diagnosis and treatment
The correct diagnosis of rosacea is crucial. Our experienced team at the Pulheim Skin Center uses modern diagnostic procedures to create individual treatment plans. From topical creams to antibiotics and laser therapy, we offer a wide range of treatment options to control symptoms and improve the well-being of our patients.
Lifestyle and skin care
A healthy lifestyle can have a big impact on rosacea symptoms. Learn how a balanced diet, avoiding trigger factors and a gentle skincare routine can help minimize flare-ups. We specifically highlight how choosing nutrient-rich foods such as omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory foods can have a positive impact on skin health.
Nutrition tips for rosacea patients
