Hello, I had vbeam laser with purpuric settings for the third time and i have spots left after the bruising, this has never happend before. It's been two months and they don't seem to be going away. I've already tried arnica cream 3 weeks after my treatment but i don't think it's doing anything anymore. I don't know what happend,they used the same settings. I think maybe one day i got sun exposure without protection, should i use hydroquinone or something else?

Answer: Combined Rosacea Treatment with YellowLaser, chemical peels, botox
Good evening! You are correct - Vbeam treatments should be spaced approximately 3-4 weeks apart for optimal cosmetic results. Make sure to speak with your board-certified dermatologist to determine how many treatments are right for you.
For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest...
Vbeam treatment can lead to scabbing if too much energy is absorbed by the top layers of skin. The scabbing is similar to a superficial burn. If severe enough, the burn can lead to a white spot, which can be temporary or permanent, depending on many factors.
