My face turns red whenever I'm embarrassed or nervous. For example, when I'm presenting something my whole face turns red and my ears. Its annoying and I don't know how to control it. Sometimes it turns red when I'm not even embarrassed or nervous. I don't think its rosacea, but I really don't know what it is. I want to know if there is a solution. I'm hoping there is because I don't plan to go to college with this problem where I'm most likely going to have to take public speaking classes!

Answer: Red Face of Rosacea Dear pamjam8: Sounds like your rosacea is precipitated by anxiety which is not uncommon. Treatment options for rosacea vary from topical, oral, IPL and laser treatments. It is best to see a skin care expert who can safely guide you along your treatment plan. Best wishes.

Answer: Facial Redness Rosacea, is a common condition of redness, coarse skin texture and the presence of telengiectasias ( tiny broken capillaries) on the face. Flushing -- or as we say , " anything that makes you flush or blush", can also be a sign of Rosacea! Ask you health-care provider next time you are in . The good news is that these signs and symptoms can be readily treated with a variety of lasers. IPl lasers ( such as the LimeLight) will reduce the overall redness and flushing and vascular lasers such as Cutera's Coolglide will more selectively treat the more vessels and improve the skin texture.
