🩺 Acne & Rosacea – What’s the Difference?
Acne is a common skin condition caused by blocked pores, excess oil, and bacteria, leading to spots and breakouts.
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that typically causes facial redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and sometimes spots that can resemble acne.
Although they can look similar, they require different treatment approaches.
