What Looks Like Rosacea

Acne
Acne is the most common skin disorder seen by doctors, and has similar attributes to rosacea. In fact, it will affect almost every one of us at some time in our lives.

Contact Dermatitis
Contact dermatitis is a result of external substances contacting the skin producing either an irritant dermatitis or an allergic contact dermatitis.

Lupus Erythematosus
Lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease, that is, a disease that alters the function of your immune system.

Perioral Dermatitis
Perioral dermatitis is a common facial rash consisting of small inflamed papules (bumps), and sometimes tiny vesicles (water filled blisters) or pus spots, which are often clustered around your mouth, base of your nose, and your chin.

Seborrheic Dermatitis
Seborrheic dermatitis is a common, red, scaly rash that you will mostly see on your head, face and upper trunk. There are ill-defined, red-to-salmon pink patches with a greasy looking scale that sometimes crusts in parts of the skin that is rich in oil glands.
