Find another dr. Go to a good dermatologist. I have rosacea. You need to be on tetracycline. 250 mg 2x daily. Every night you should be applying Metrogel to your entire face. This is standard treatment and the key to keeping it under control. My first derm didn’t put me on that and my skin was getting worse. SO I got another opinion, thank God! It cleared up in a few weeks. You will eventually be weaned off the pills but will stay on the Metrogel forever. By the way, Metrogel is a clear gel and antibiotic. I am constantly being told my skin is beautiful. I don’t have any more bumps! It used to get fire-engine red and rough like it was wind-burned. No more! I bet MY rosacea WAS worse than yours is now. ALso the sun aggravates it. Get another dr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!… Print my answer out and show it to him!
