How is rosacea diagnosed?
There is no test needed to diagnose rosacea. Typically, a doctor can diagnose rosacea simply by examining your skin and reviewing your medical history. However, you may have tests to rule out other conditions that can sometimes cause symptoms similar to those of rosacea.
Who gets rosacea?
An estimated 16 million people in the US alone are affected by rosacea. Rosacea is most common in middle-aged women with fair skin and Celtic or Northern European ancestry. However, anyone, including men, children, and people with darker skin tones, can get rosacea.
Does rosacea hurt?
Rosacea affects everyone a little differently, so it really depends on the type of rosacea, the severity, and the person. Some people with erythemato-telangiectactic rosacea (ETR)—characterized by flushing or redness of the face—complain of their skin being very sensitive and stinging or burning.
What triggers rosacea?
There are many potential triggers for rosacea flare-ups, including but not limited to hot drinks, spicy foods, alcoholic beverages, extreme temperatures (hot or cold), sun or wind exposure, emotions, exercise, and certain medications or cosmetic products.

Does my Treaty doctor replace my regular doctor?
Treaty is there to supplement the care you are already receiving from your primary care physician (PCP), not replace it. As with any changes to your health or medications you may be taking, always keep your PCP updated on treatments you may be prescribed through Treaty.
How will my Treaty doctor know which treatment is right for me after only a short virtual visit?
Before your virtual visit, you will fill out a medical questionnaire that will help the doctor understand your medical history, including previous and current conditions you may have, as well as any products or medications you may be allergic to. Depending on your particular skin condition, you may also be asked to upload a few photos of your skin so your Treaty doctor can better assist you.

You will need a device connected to the internet in order to access your appointment. Video may be required for some appointments.

Getting an appointment with one of our doctors is not only convenient, but it's also quick—as in, as little as 15 minutes quick. However, if you're not immediately available for an appointment, one can be scheduled for you for at a later time.
How long is the appointment?
Most appointments take about 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
Will my insurance cover my prescription?
