Constant Redness, a Rosacea Symptom?

Tags: redness, rosacea
For some reason my skin is constantly red. its not terribly red, its just like I have a tint. Its almost as if I'm always a little sunburned, I have pretty fair skin I suppose, but even during the winter I was just as red.
Its also not a solid red, when I apply pressure and release, my skin flashes white and then fades back into red in a second or so, kind of like when you have sunburn. Could this be rosacea? or is this something else? Thanks!

Constant redness - a rosacea symptom
Sounds like Rosacea to me. Most individuals with facial redness also have individual superficial blood vessels (telangiectasias). If you dislike the redness, certain vascular laser/light devices including the pulsed-dye laser (v-beam), Nd:YAG laser and IPL/fotofacial can help.
Good luck.
