Key Lab Markers
- Clinical diagnosis (persistent facial redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, papules/pustules—no comedones differentiates from acne), SIBO breath test (CRITICAL—hydrogen/methane, 50%+ rosacea patients have SIBO, treating SIBO often clears rosacea), H. pylori testing (stool antigen or breath test—common in rosacea), Comprehensive stool test (dysbiosis, other pathogens), Skin scraping (microscopy—assess Demodex mite density, if >5 mites per cm² suggests overgrowth), Food sensitivity panel (IgG—identify triggers, but elimination diet more reliable), Histamine/DAO level (if suspect histamine intolerance), Hormone panel (if peri/menopausal—fluctuations worsen rosacea), Vitamin D, Omega-3 Index, Zinc, CBC, Comprehensive metabolic panel
