I am not sure what you mean. Can you explain in more detail what information you require?

it can be any number of things... lupus, rosacea, seb derm or other infections.

i'd get checked for lupus most certainly if you don't have other signs of rosacea and/or seb derm (p&p's and/or flakes and scabs)... i think it's a simple blood test to determin, not sure.

but the butterfly mark is generaly something to do with blood vessels if i'm not mistaken.
