Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease of the skin. Exact pathogenesis is not yet elucidated, although all of these are influences due to the imbalance of the innate immune system, the overgrowth of skin coma and the aberrant neurovascular signaling. Rosacea has a physically limited effect, but from a psychological point of view, the impact is very high. Non-pharmacological treatments are very important in preventing triggering and subsequent care by hydration and appropriate sunscreen. From a pharmacological point of view, both systemic and topical interventions can be performed, however current therapies are not curative. Proper skin care plays a pivotal role in maintaining remission and alleviating the symptoms of rosacea.
