Abstract

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease, affecting mainly the central areas of the face. It is more frequently in the female genre between the 3 rd and the 5 th decade of life. We present a case of a patient suffering III grade rosacea for 10 years. This patient received several treatments for a long time without solving, or improving her clinical features. She was treated orally and topically with retinoids, and her condition evidently improved in six months, with scarcely adverse reactions.
