Is Waxing On Face Safe While Suffering From Rosacea?

I have rosacea, and spend alot of time in the sun. I also have a lot of fine hair on my face. I just got the bright idea to wax, and it appears as though I have lost some skin. Looks like a scrape. Now I m scared that I could have scared myself, even though there s no frank bleeding... What should I do?

HI
I really appreciate your concern, if this is formation of wound then it need to be taken care with antiseptic application but it would be better to get done the clinical examination, and for that you have to see the dermatologist, hope this information helps, take care have a nice day.
