Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis characterized by flushing, persistent erythema and other skin features such as telangiectasia, roughness, inflammatory papules and pustules, and less often phymatous changes. It primarily affects the medial part of the face, including the cheeks, nose, chin, and central part of the forehead, but can sometimes extend to other parts of the body, usually the upper torso. Patients with rosacea may also present ocular symptoms. It most often affects people of lighter skin, and occurs between the ages of 30 and 50. Although the pathophysiology of rosacea is still unclear, it is probably a multifactorial disease that can be caused or exacerbated by various internal and external factors. It manifests itself in several clinical forms on the basis of which it is divided into four subtypes: erythematotelangiectatic, papulopustular, phymatous and ocular rosacea. Topical use of brimonidine, ivermectin and azelaic acid, as well as oral use of doxycycline and isotretinoin, have the most convincing evidence of the effectiveness of rosacea therapy. Due to the fact that it affects the face, rosacea has a negative impact on the quality of life and self-confidence of patients, so the application of decorative cosmetics is necessary. The role of health professionals is to advise patients on proper skin care with appropriate cosmetic products, adherence to prescribed therapy and avoiding trigger, which can significantly contribute to improving the quality of life and mental state of patients.
