Does Heredity Play A Part In The Development of Rosacea?

Though there is no conclusive evidence that proves that rosacea is passed from generation to generation, survey results published by the National Rosacea Society certainly seems to suggest that it may play a part.

It was reported that almost 52% of survey respondents (600 person sample size) acknowledged that someone in their family had or presently have rosacea. More interesting was that of those who confirmed that they did have a relative with rosacea that most indicated that it was a person in the immediate family.

Based on the high percentage of sufferers with relatives and family members also experiencing rosacea symptoms, it would seem that there is a high probability that heredity has a part to play in a person’s development of rosacea. So, if you are concerned about developing this skin condition or are experiencing symptoms, you may need to look no further than your family members for confirmation!
