Rosacea is one of the most frequent skin diseases in adulthood – and one of the most unpleasant, since it generally occurs on the face and is immediately visible.
Rosacea
Women are affected more often than men, and light-skinned persons are affected more often than dark-skinned persons. Couperose is a concomitant or resultant condition.

Rosenpark Klinik is a private clinic accredited according to section 30 of the Trade Regulation Code [Gewerbeordnung].

The redness, which resembles a mild sunburn, can be concealed with cosmetics. During the period of the treatment you should avoid UV light and apply sun protection.
You can find more information in our "Dermatology" information sheets, which you can request from us free of charge.
