Cortisone creams, lasers and IPLs all remove acne red spots quickly.

Prescription cortisone creams such as triamcinolone cr 0.1% is probably the easiest way to remove acne red spots. IPLs and lasers are a more expensive way. Sincerely, David Hansen,MD

Redness from acne

If you have active acne and have hyperpigmentation from inflammation, IPL can help. Also somne lasers can help keep the acne at bay.

Time always works, but the pulsed dye laser can speed things up

A tincture of time is always a reliable remedy for the resolution of the post-inflammatory redness, but if you want a little help, the pulsed dye laser can sometimes expedite the resolution. I promise you that with enough time, your redness will go away on its own, but again, if you want to go to the $$ distance, then you can seek out some pulsed dye laser treatments. Good luck.

IPL and Pulsed Dye Laser work the best to remove redness from acne.

IPL and Pulsed Dye Laser work the best to remove redness from acne. I the V-beam Laser from Candela, the Cynergy Laser from Cynosure and the VascuLight Elite IPL from Lumenis. All of these device work well to remove the redness following acne lesions. SkinMedica Redness Relief Calmplex is also a good product to use.
