Should I still get V-Beam even though my marks don't blanch out with pressure?

Bentey
I have some red erythmatic macules from the inflammation left behind by acne. Some of which are indented and other are flat. That being said, my concern is not the indentations but more of the redness in them. I am planning on getting V-beam since I heard great things about it on here for redness. However, I read of something called the blanching test for PIE(applying pressure on the area to see if it changes color for a split second). My marks do not, should I still do V-beam?
