Wondering if I can use a BellaFlash laser hair remover to eliminate a spider spot/telangiectasia on my face?

greenbeantownMar 17, 2018
I am in my late 30s; complexion is pale/caucasian. I have a small round telangiectasia / spider spot on the center of my cheek. It's been there for a year. It's an inch and a half below my eye -- directly on the "apple" of my cheek. I understand that some lasers could remove it. I have a Bella Flash laser hair remover. Could I use that to try to treat the spot? I am wondering if the Bella Flash's pulse/lightwave would be effective or not. Thanks.

Thank you for your question. I advise avoiding any treatments in the affected area near hemorrhoid until it is fully healed. I recommend rescheduling your appointment and letting your treating physician know of the situation. Best of Luck!
