I believed what i am having is post inflammatory erythema which stays for years. It can get redder in colder or hotter temperatures. Which laser can i do to get to normal skin appearance? I did two sublative rejuvenation and it didnt show much improvement. This picture was taken 1 month post 1st treatment. Post 2nd treatment looks worst. Is V-beam the only choice u have?
