I have capillary damage and severe redness on my penis from overuse of hydrocortisone, any suggestions? (Photos)

Question

Will Vbeam or other laser treatments help reduce redness and visible damage? Are there other treatments that might help? Local dermatologist I consulted would not consider performing laser treatment, told me simply to live with the issue. Damage has existed for about two years without improving. I am very fair skinned. Reddening worsens depending on variety of factors and amount of blood flow. Looks especially bad after sexual use.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

​The best treatments for capillary issues are vascular lasers such as pulsed dye laser, Excel V, Aerolase, Venus Versa IPL, Laser Genesis or Yellow laser. The settings are determined on a per case basis, so it is best to consult with an expert to determine what will work best for you. We often combine vascular lasers with non-ablative fractional lasers such as Clear + Brilliant or Venus Viva for better results. I would suggest seeing a cosmetic dermatologist for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.​
