I have seen result a few years ago with IPL therapy, but only did 3 sessions. Approximately how many sessions would be needed to see optimal and lasting results? My skin texture is being affected now.
Answer: Reducing Rosacea--Pulsed Dye Laser/V Beam, Yellow Laser, IPL, Microsecond Yag, Clear + Brilliant I find that vascular lasers help all forms of rosacea including flushing and papulopustular, but isotretinoin is often best for the PP type. It's difficult to give you a time-frame, but it will take a series of treatments. Please see an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Vbeam help defuse the redness from rosacea Vbeam laser is an excellent modality for patients who have rosacea, blushing of the skin, facial and body telangiectasia, spider veins, redness, post surgical redness, and skin flushing. It is a safe procedure that can be used at varying depths to help treat micro blood vessels in the skin. We also use it in our office for facial skin inflammation, keloids, and hypertrophic scarring. It is an important part of scar therapy. Vbeam can be combined with chemical peels and other lasers, but experience with the treatment is essential. The Vbeam laser does not affect deeper tissue. Schedule a consultation with an expert in Vbeam and you will find it to be an excellent modality for many skin types. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Lasers for rosacea? Rosacea is not an easy or simple malady to correct. There are variations of this troublesome condition, ranging from mild to severe. We don’t really ‘cure’ it, rather we ‘manage’ and try to improve rosacea both with topicals and lasers. We have found using both IPL (intense pulsed light) and the 532/940 focused lasers have afforded our patients relief and improvement after several sessions.

Answer: Pulsed Dye Laser for Rosacea Treating Rosacea depends on the type of Rosacea you have. The following are subtypes of Rosacea: 1. Subtype 1 – flushed, red facial skin, facial spider veins, sensitivity, and dry skin 2. Subtype 2 – acne breakouts, very red skin, oily skin, sensitive skin 3. Subtype 3 – rare type of rosacea with bumpy portions of skin, especially on the nose, and oily skin 4. Subtype 4 – affects the eyes causing burning, stinging, blurry vision, and dryness There are a variety of methods used to treat Rosacea including photodynamic therapy and Cynergy pulsed dye laser. This laser is FDA-approved and revolutionary at removing redness and scars from your skin. For more information, I recommend getting a in person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist.

Answer: IPL is a good choice Since you had good results with IPL in the past, I'd recommend starting there. Vascular lasers would be an option if IPL were not helping. We generally treat rosacea with 6-8 IPL treatments, then do maintenance treatments as necessary.
