Research shows that typically people don’t start to see rosacea until after the age of 30, but what causes it is still up for debate. Scientists have looked into a variety of factors ranging from genes to overactive immune systems, but they haven’t yet pinpointed a single cause for rosacea.
Even so, the American Academy of Dermatology Association says that most people who get rosacea are:
- Between 30 and 50 years old
- Fair-skinned, and often with blonde hair and blue eyes
- From Celtic or Scandinavian ancestry
- Likely to have someone in their family tree with rosacea or severe acne
- Likely to have had a lot of acne themselves
