Asked By:Pierotti17

I am post accutane by 7 weeks. redness occurred during and mostly after accutane. Did not have rosacea before. Triggers are: nervousness/embarrassment, cold weather and exercise. Hot flushes every now and again ( when embarrassed). Causing psychological distress to me and stopping me socialising as much.
