How is skin with fine dilated capillaries described?

Hyperpigmented
Rosacea-prone
Couperose
Acneic

The correct answer is: Couperose

Skin with fine dilated capillaries is described as couperose. This describes a skin condition where there is redness and a tendency to flush easily. Option A, hyperpigmented, refers to skin with darkened patches or spots and would not be associated with dilated capillaries. Option B, rosacea-prone, describes a skin condition that causes persistent red patches, visible blood vessels, and often small bumps. Although rosacea and couperose have similar symptoms, rosacea-prone skin would not necessarily have visible dilated capillaries. Option D, acneic, describes skin that is prone to acne, which is usually characterized by pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads, and would not be associated with dilated capillaries either. Therefore, the correct answer is C, couperose, as it specifically describes skin with visible dilated capillaries.
