Area of Science:

Dermatology
Clinical Medicine

Background:

Acne rosacea is traditionally considered uncommon in patients with darker skin tones.
Previous literature has limited data on rosacea presentation in black individuals.

Observation:

This report details three distinct cases of rosacea observed in black patients.
Clinical and dermatoscopic images are provided to illustrate the presentation.

Findings:

The described cases suggest that acne rosacea may occur more frequently in black patients than previously documented.
The clinical manifestations in these patients warrant further investigation.

Implications:

Increased clinical suspicion for rosacea in black patients is recommended.

Further research is needed to understand the prevalence and specific characteristics of rosacea in diverse populations.
