Clinically, rosacea can present with flushing, erythema, papules, pustules, telangiectasias, phymatous changes, pruritus, burning, and stinging. In 2017, the National Rosacea Society Expert Committee recommended a phenotype-based classification for therapy. In this review, we identify monotherapies and multimodal treatment approaches for the clinical management of rosacea including topical, systemic, laser and light, alternative, and combination therapies.Keywords: combination therapy, management, monotherapy, rosacea, therapy, treatment
