Rosacea affects 415 million people worldwide. It's a skin condition that results from a variety of factors and triggers, the latter of which can be difficult to pinpoint if you don't know where to start. We have board-certified dermatologist Dr. Michele Farber of Schweiger Dermatology in NYC as a guest today, and she breaks down what rosacea actually is, the four subtypes, how to identify triggers, products and ingredients to use and avoid, plus treatment options available.
