Definition:

Rosacea is a facial rash usually composed of prominent redness and sometimes pimples as well. Rosacea usually occurs in the central part of the face and involves the nose, cheeks, chin and/or forehead. Flushing, and symptoms such as burning, stinging, and tingling may also be problems for the patient with rosacea. Long term Rosacea may produce Rhinophyma, an enlarged nose, typified by W.C. Field’s nose.
