Lasers for telangiectasia on glans of penis

January 14, 2024
Asked By:alex1802 in Bucharest, RO

Over the past years, I've developed on the glans of the penis a condition similar to facial rosacea. It was caused by warm baths. Had in office consults with dermatologists and confirmed it's not STD. The glans gets very red during erection and the redness persists afterwards. It's accompanied by a lot of dryness. If I stretch the skin I can clearly see telangiectasias. It worsened recently and it worries me. Can vBeam/YAG laser or IPL be used on the glans to close up the vessels?
