Which group of people is Rosacea frequently diagnosed in?

1. Children

2. Teens

3. Fair skinned adults

4. Dark skinned adults

The correct answer is: Fair skinned adults

Rosacea is a skin condition that causes redness and swelling in the face. While it can occur in people of all ages, it is most commonly diagnosed in fair-skinned adults, particularly those over the age of 30. This is because fair-skinned individuals are more prone to having sensitive skin and are more likely to experience the facial flushing and blushing associated with rosacea. Additionally, rosacea tends to develop gradually over time, making it more likely to be diagnosed in adults rather than children or teens. While it is possible for dark-skinned adults to have rosacea, it is less common and may be more difficult to diagnose due to the skin's natural pigmentation.
