Rosacea Treatment Cairo, Egypt

Rosacea is a frequently seen skin disorder which presents itself as diffuse redness, flushing that comes and goes, telangiectasia (distended capillaries and couperose), especially in the nose and upper cheeks, or may involve large, isolated or widespread papules and pustules. The lesions and problems normally affect the center panel of the face, mainly the nose and cheeks, but may involve the forehead and chin as well. In advance stages, the nose can become enlarged in a condition known as rhinophyma   Rosacea is often diagnosed in the 30 or 40 something range, but may be seen as soon as the early 20s, and as late as age 60. Rosacea is more prominent in women than men, but rhinophyma (characterized by a bulbous, enlarged red nose) is more common in men.

A form of rosacea may also affect the eyes. Ocular rosacea can result in eye redness, scaling of the lids, and conjunctivitis   Rosacea may affect dry or oily skin types. In oily skin, pores often appear dilated; nose pores enlarged and often impacted, and the nose may also have obvious telangiectasias, especially in the nostril area.
