The main cause of rosacea is a genetic predisposition. We most often inherit a tendency towards rosacea from our loved ones, and then gene activation depends on each person’s individual characteristics. Rosacea can often be mistaken for acne, as the symptoms are very similar. However, acne is more common among young people, while rosacea is more common in people over the age of 30.
It should also be understood that rosacea can occur with any skin type, so the approach to choosing home care and professional treatment products will also differ.
More work is required for dry skin with rosacea to strengthen the lipid layer and alleviate inflammation; it is also best to choose gentle products;
For oily skin, attention should be paid not only to anti-inflammatory products, but also to high-quality cleansing.
When choosing cosmetic products for treating rosacea, we recommend selecting products containing the following:
- Niacinamide
- Adaptogens
- Complexes designed to reduce inflammation and redness
- Vitamin K2
- Plant extracts
- Green tea extract
- Ceramides
- Azelaic acid
- AHA acids
