Abstract:
Despite presenting with similar symptoms, triggers, and progression patterns as adults, rosacea in children and adolescents is frequently overlooked as a primary differential diagnosis. However, initial manifestations of classic clinical types can be observed from infancy onwards. The frequent association of childhood rosacea with ophthalmologic manifestations is of particular importance in addition to the knowledge of special subtypes such as idiopathic aseptic facial granuloma. Therapeutic options of pediatric rosacea partly overlap with those of common differential diagnoses such as acne vulgaris or perioral dermatitis. However, both the disease itself and its manifestation in this age group entail challenges in the selection of active ingredients and the development of therapeutic concepts. In addition, advice on triggering and aggravation factors is required in order to provide optimal long-term support for those affected.
