Rosacea: What is it and how can you manage it? Back to basics: Don’t waste time or money having facials or peels – seek medical advice about an hour ago
Paler, sensitive Celtic skin can be especially prone to rosacea, and while most people might overlook the skin condition as simply redness in the complexion, it is much more complicated than that. If you have been struggling to manage it – according to the HSE, as many as one in 10 Irish people have rosacea – or experienced dismissive attitudes, you’re certainly not alone. I turned to consultant dermatologist at the Blackrock Clinic’s Centre for Restorative Dermatology, Dr Rosemary Coleman, for some clarity on what rosacea actually is, and how it can be managed.
