In some individuals, problems with blood flow or the amount of oxygen in the blood causes certain skin conditions.
- Sun exposure
- Hormonal changes
- Heredity
- Acne
- Aggressive skin treatments

Red Skin FAQs
Sugar causes inflammation in the body, which can result in red skin patches. However, if you already suffer from inflammatory conditions like eczema and rosacea, the sugar consumption could make them worse.
Many people find that after some alcohol, their faces turn a little red. This is known as “flushing”, and the reasons why this happens is because the body can sometimes struggle to digest alcohol in its entirety. Alcohol can trigger rosacea, which is a redness in the skin that happens when the blood vessels enlarge and generate more blood flow. Though this redness can disappear, over time it can lead to a permanent expansion of the blood vessels as well as thread veins on the skin.
