IPL PhotoFacial treatments work well for eliminating facial redness.

A series of 3 or 4 IPL PhotoFacial treatments are helpful in reducing flushing and redness associated with rosacea. Metronidazole-gel is a topical antibiotic that will not decrease your facial redness. I hope this is helpful for you.
