Abstract

Rosacea is one of the most common facial dermatoses. There are four basic clinical subtypes of this disease, most often characterized by transient and persistent erythema of the face, telangiectasias, papules and pustules, or by hyperplasia of soft tissues of the face.

Etiopathogenesis of rosacea is not fully understood yet, it is supposed to be multifactorial, including dysregulation of the innate immune system, role of skin commensals and neurovascular dysregulation. The review presents the current classification and approaches to the treatment of this disease, including therapeutic measures, local and systemic therapy.
