Does this look like acne rosacea?

[Cherryup]

I have been diagnosed via video call with acne rosacea, I'm really not sure it is though.

I've read the NHS info on it and it doesn't really fit. I've suffered from cystic acne for years and I think this red bit and lumps are infected cysts, they're very painful and swollen.

Generally I have about 3 big sore lumps at a time which last a week or two, usually on my chin or cheeks near my nose.

This is more how it usually looks.

Yes it does, ask for Soolantra at the doctors, it doesn't work for everyone but it's very good for this kind of rosacea

Yep, classic type 2. Soolantra will sort this out for you - don’t let them fob you off with anything else. It will get worse before it gets better but is an absolute game changer. I had papules and pustules all over my face and you wouldn’t even know I had rosacea now. Miraculous stuff.

It's seriously a wonder cream, branded Soolantra but know as ivermectin, it makes you sensitive to the sun but I can live with that for its results

Soolantra also worked wonders for me, I still have a red complexion but can cover it with makeup, it is amazing to be free of the spots having suffered for over 15 years.

Ooh thank you, I will request that.

Is it prescription only cream?

Yes prescription, you can buy from pharmacies online but it's pricey
