... As rosacea progresses, other symptoms can develop such as semi-permanent erythema, telangiectasia (dilation of superficial blood vessels on the face)...
I'm not sure about the mites on the face as the cause of rosacea because my own experiences mimics the definition above.
When I get exposed to the sun, even briefly, red spots appear all over my arms and face. Some spots are as large as peaches. The spots appear randomly and disappear after a few minutes when I'm in a shade.
The only spot remains on the nose. They're tiny and look like pimples, but never heal.
