Will IPL treat this redness? (Photo)

Thank you for your question! IPL is an effective treatment for treating vascular lesions including rosacea. A series of 1-3 treatments may be necessary to achieve desired results.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is an effective option for managing rosacea. Initial treatments are typically scheduled 1-2 weeks apart, gradually extending to 4-6 weeks as redness diminishes. While there is no cure for rosacea, IPL offers an excellent solution for maintaining clearer, healthier-looking skin over time. It is important to note that when using IPL to treat sun damage, treatments should be 4-6 weeks apart.

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.
