You’re Making Me Blush!

September 26, 2013


Embarrassment graces us all from time to time along with the blushing. But what if you keep blushing, even when you aren’t embarrassed? This frequent, often life-disrupting redness is known as rosacea.

Rosacea is a chronic condition more typically found in people with extremely fair skin. People experience chronic redness of the cheeks, nose, chin or forehead with rosacea. But it goes beyond blushing – people also experience bumps and pimples and even visible blood vessels.

A “flare-up” occurs when something irritates your skin or causes the blood vessels to expand. Common triggers are exercise, sun and wind exposure, stress and spicy foods. There are no cures and the cause is unknown. But what you can do is control the signs and symptoms of rosacea. Talking to one of our certified dermatologists is the first step!

Once you schedule an appointment with our dermatologists, managing your rosacea becomes much easier. They can help you map out a plan that fits your needs and schedule. Feel free to call us today!

If you have any questions about rosacea or any other changes in your skin, please call us today at 865-690-9467. Skin health is an important part of total body wellness. Schedule an appointment with one of our board certified physicians to get your skin the care it needs so it can reach its fullest, healthiest potential.
