Approximately 415 million people worldwide suffer from rosacea. Conventional topical treatments such as gels, ointments, creams and lotions have demonstrated limited effectiveness due to skin’s natural barrier nature, which hinders the penetration of active ingredients. To overcome these problems novel drug delivery systems has been developed. These systems have the ability to enhance drug's efficacy by increasing their penetration across stratum corneum also these systems provide sustain and controlled drug release at targeted sites thus prevent the side effects of the drug. This article offers necessary details regarding rosacea like its types, etiology, diagnosis along with the novel therapies which is being used for the treatment of rosacea. Future prospects for the treatment of rosacea are also covered.
