I go bright red when exercising. Can vbeam help?

Question

I have pale English/Irish skin and I go bright red when I go to the gym or get embarrassed. I feel like I need to wear makeup to the gym. Would vbeam help fix this?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Redness is improved with lasers but blushing/flushing is not.  It sounds like you have physiological flushing with will not be really improved with any cosmetic treatment.  Botox injections sometimes help in my patients.  Best, Dr. Emer.

M. David Cole, MD, FAAD · Answer

I do not think you will be helped much by laser treatment for physiologic flushing, but you may be helped by a product such as Mirvaso, which acts directly to stop the blood vessel dilation which is responsible for the redness of physiologic flushing.  Make an appointment with a board-certified dermatologist.  Hope this helps!
