Demodex Folliculorum in Development of Dermatitis Rosaceiformis Steroidica and Rosacea-Related Diseases

During investigations with rosacea, demodex folliculits and dermatitis rosaceiformis steroidica patients some interesting questions appeared. Why Demodex is found in several situations where the sebum secretion is low ? Why infestations with Demodex is increasing with age and reach up to 100% in elderly people, 5 when sebum excretion rate reach a maximum between the age of 16 and 40, and thereafter declined in both sexes, particularly in females? The higher Demodex density observed in papulopustular stage of rosacea, demodex folliculitis and dermatitis rosaceiformis steroidica suggest, although it does not prove, that the mite plays a role in formations of papules and pustules what is common in some of the stages of all these diseases.
