Approximately 415 million people in the world are affected by one of the four subtypes of Rosacea. This cause is unclear, but there are some contributing factors associated with it. Rosacea affects both men and women, and although women are more likely to get Rosacea, men tend to have more severe cases.
Four Subtypes of Rosacea:
- Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea (Subtype One)
- Papulopustular Rosacea (Subtype Two)
- Phymatous Rosacea (Subtype Three)
- Ocular Rosacea (Subtype Four)
Do you know which one you have?
Clients can help to reduce the visible symptoms of Rosacea by limiting any triggers associated with Rosacea flare-ups like the ones below.
