Where this leaves you
Most of what makes acne and rosacea hard to treat is knowing which one you are dealing with and what actually works for it. The overlap cases in this quiz are not unusual - they are the ones that come through my clinic every week, often after months of the wrong treatment. Reaching a clear diagnosis and a plan is what a consultation is for.
