What is Rosacea?

Rosacea is a chronic (long-term) skin condition that causes the face to become unusually red. It also can cause swelling. The condition sometimes produces pink bumps (papules) or pimples filled with pus (pustules). Rosacea affects the eyes of about half of all people who have the condition.

About 13 million people in the U.S have rosacea. There is no known cure for rosacea, but there are a variety of treatments for it.
