The condition is associated with a compromised skin barrier and an overactive immune response. If left untreated, it can worsen over time and lead to permanent skin changes.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Causes_of_Rosacea\"><\/span>Causes of Rosacea<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>1.

Immune System Reactions:<\/strong> An overly sensitive response of the skin to external factors can trigger the disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Microorganisms:<\/strong> An increase in the Demodex folliculorum mites is associated with rosacea.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Vascular Issues:<\/strong> Dilation of blood vessels and easy flushing can exacerbate the symptoms of the disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Environmental Factors:<\/strong> Sun exposure, temperature fluctuations, spicy foods, and alcohol can trigger the condition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Stress and Psychological Factors:<\/strong> Intense stress can intensify rosacea symptoms.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Symptoms_of_Rosacea\"><\/span>Symptoms of Rosacea<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Redness (Erythema):<\/strong> Persistent or recurring redness on the face, particularly on the nose, cheeks, and forehead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Visible Capillaries:<\/strong> Small vessels on the skin&#8217;s surface becoming visible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pimple-like Lesions:<\/strong> Inflamed, raised, and sometimes painful lesions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eye Involvement (Ocular Rosacea):<\/strong> Burning, redness, and dryness in the eyes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Skin Thickening (Rhinophyma):<\/strong> Thickening and reshaping of the tissues around the nose (in advanced cases).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Diagnostic_Methods\"><\/span>Diagnostic Methods<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. Clinical Examination:<\/strong> The dermatologist diagnoses by examining the patient&#8217;s skin structure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Dermatoscopy:<\/strong> Used for a detailed examination of the capillaries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Biopsy:<\/strong> A skin biopsy may be performed in suspicious cases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Eye Examination:<\/strong> If eye involvement is suspected, an ophthalmological evaluation is conducted.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Treatment_Methods_for_Rosacea\"><\/span>Treatment Methods for Rosacea<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>1.
