Are There Different Types of Rosacea?

There are four types of rosacea, and your dermatologist should be able to tell you which one you have;

Papulopustular rosacea

Persistent redness with bumps or pimples, raised patches or acne-like breakouts with small puss filled spots.

Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea

Facial flushing and persistent redness on the nose cheeks and middle forehead, leading to visible broken veins; sensitive, stinging, swollen or rough scaly skin.

Rhinophyma rosacea

This is a rarer form of rosacea and its symptoms are thickening of the skin, usually around the nose, and bumpy skin texture

Ocular rosacea

Watery, red, irritated eyes; or dry, itchy or sensitive to light, this type of rosacea can lead to sight problems.
