Struggling with constant facial redness, visible veins, or red bumps that won’t go away? You may be dealing with rosacea, a chronic but manageable skin condition that affects the face—especially the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead. While it’s not harmful, rosacea can be frustrating, both physically and emotionally.
At Airaclinics in Hyderabad, we specialize in diagnosing and treating all forms of rosacea with personalized care. Our goal is to calm inflammation, reduce flare-ups, and help you regain your natural, healthy glow with science-backed solutions.
What Is Rosacea?
Rosacea is a long-term inflammatory condition that causes visible redness, facial flushing, and in many cases, acne-like breakouts. It primarily affects adults and tends to develop gradually, starting with mild blushing and progressing to more persistent symptoms.
While it’s often mistaken for acne or sun damage, rosacea is a distinct condition with unique triggers and treatment protocols. Without early treatment, symptoms can intensify and lead to permanent skin changes, such as thickened skin or enlarged blood vessels.
Key Signs and Symptoms:
Rosacea can look different for every individual, but the most commonly observed symptoms include:
- Persistent redness on the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin
- Frequent flushing or blushing that becomes longer-lasting over time
- Visible broken blood vessels (telangiectasia)
- Small red bumps or pus-filled pimples
- Burning, stinging, or dry sensations in the skin
- Rough or thickened skin texture
- Eye redness, dryness, or irritation (ocular rosacea)
In more advanced stages, rosacea can lead to rhinophyma, a condition where the skin on the nose thickens and becomes bulbous.
Common Rosacea Triggers:
Understanding what worsens rosacea is key to preventing flare-ups. At Airaclinics in Hyderabad, we guide you through identifying and avoiding personal triggers. The most frequent ones include:
- Sunlight and hot weather
- Hot beverages like coffee or tea
- Alcohol, especially red wine
- Spicy foods
- Intense exercise
- Emotional stress or anxiety
- Wind exposure or cold weather
- Incorrect skincare or cosmetic products
Trigger management is often as important as medical treatment in keeping symptoms under control.
Types of Rosacea:
Rosacea is typically categorized into four clinical subtypes:
- Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea – Characterized by redness, flushing, and visible blood vessels
- Papulopustular Rosacea – Acne-like breakouts along with persistent redness
- Phymatous Rosacea – Skin thickening, especially around the nose (rhinophyma)
- Ocular Rosacea – Involves eye discomfort, irritation, dryness, or swollen eyelids
At Airaclinics, we perform a thorough skin analysis to identify your subtype and severity before creating a treatment plan.
How Rosacea Is Treated at Airaclinics – Step-by-Step
Step 1: Comprehensive Skin Evaluation
We begin by assessing your skin’s condition, identifying the subtype of rosacea, and evaluating potential external triggers.
Step 2: Lifestyle and Trigger Assessment
Our dermatologists help pinpoint lifestyle habits, diet, and skincare elements that may be aggravating your symptoms.
Step 3: Customized Medical Treatment
Depending on your diagnosis, we may recommend:
- Topical treatments to reduce inflammation and redness
- Oral medications such as antibiotics or low-dose isotretinoin for severe breakouts
- Ocular therapies if your eyes are involved
Step 4: Light or Laser-Based Therapy (if needed)
For visible blood vessels and deep redness, we may use IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) or vascular lasers to reduce vascular congestion and calm the skin tone.
Step 5: Sensitive Skin Skincare Routine
We recommend or prescribe gentle, rosacea-friendly products including:
- Fragrance-free cleansers
- Mineral-based sunscreens
- Non-comedogenic moisturizers
- Skin-calming serums
Step 6: Follow-up and Progress Tracking
Rosacea is long-term, so we ensure you receive periodic check-ins and adjustments to keep flare-ups at bay and results steady.
Additional Tips for Managing Rosacea:
In addition to professional treatment, everyday habits make a huge difference. Here’s what we advise:
- Apply sunscreen daily (SPF 30 or higher)
- Avoid saunas, steam rooms, and long hot showers
- Limit alcohol and spicy food intake
- Manage stress through breathing exercises or yoga
- Use cold compresses during flare-ups for relief
- Avoid scrubbing the face or using harsh exfoliants
These small changes, when combined with professional care, can significantly improve your skin’s appearance and comfort.
