Rosacea is a common skin disease that causes redness and red pimple-like breakouts on the face. It begins with a tendency toward “flushing and blushing” and may then progress to a persistent redness of the central face.

Melasma presents with brown patches on the cheeks, bridge of the nose, forehead and upper lip. It is most common in women with skin of color and occurs more frequently in those with a family history of the condition.
