Reddening of the skin on the face
When the skin sees red
Those who suffer from skin prone to redness often struggle with visible veins, red spots or a glowing face. There are many reasons for redness. Basically, three causes or skin conditions can be distinguished:
While some people always have an even, natural skin tone, others’ skin quickly looks red.
Symptoms: Diffuse redness, feeling of warmth, discomfort (e.g. itching).
Origin: Sensitive skin reacts particularly sensitive to stimuli due to a disturbed protective barrier and hypersensitive nerve fibres.
Causes and influencing factors: Internal and external, e.g. food or physical exertion. The importance of the psyche plays a special role.
Even though couperosis is not a skin condition by definition, sufferers often suffer considerably from the redness of the skin.
Symptoms: Dilated veins under the skin (telangiectasias) that appear mainly on the cheeks and are permanently visible.
Origin: Regularly occurring blood congestion dilates the blood vessels. Due to a weakness of the connective tissue, the ability of the tissue to contract again is reduced. Over time, permanent vasodilatation occurs that cannot be reversed. In addition, new veins can form, which further increase the visual redness.
Causes and influencing factors: Internal, mainly hereditary factors, but also skin care influence couperosis.
Skin redness can also be caused by the skin disease rosacea (or rosacea). A dermatologist will make the correct diagnosis.
Symptoms: Redness, dilated veins, papules, pustules and/or discomfort (e.g. itching). In the late stages, thickening and enlargement of the sebaceous glands on the face - usually centrally on the nose, forehead and cheeks - are also common.
Origin: The chronic inflammation in the connective tissue worsens in episodes. Depending on the subtype and stage, the symptoms are initially temporary and then permanent.
Causes and influencing factors: A combination of genetic factors and external triggers (e.g. UV radiation or the demodex mite) is suspected.
When it comes to caring for sensitive skin, less is always more! Ideally, skin care products should be coordinated and routinely applied. Constantly changing skin care products can cause additional irritation and is stressful for the skin.
