Abstract
The cause of rosacea is speculative [1, 2]. Regardless of theories about its pathogenesis, no single therapeutic strategy successfully treats all types of rosacea and all patients with rosacea [3-5]. This chapter explores the therapies in various subsets of rosacea. Evidence-based studies and other reports are cited [6]. The efficacy of these treatments often has not been supported by the highest levels of evidence, namely, randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials.
