Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

In our office, we have several treatments that can help improve common vascular skin issues, including rosacea, post-inflammatory erythema, red scars, facial blushing, and spider veins. The Vbeam laser continues to be the gold standard for redness, including rosacea and post-inflammatory erythema. In some cases, we add Venus Viva RF coagulation to help improve redness on the skin from spider veins, inflammation, and rosacea. 
  
Generally, several sessions are required to improve redness on the skin. Vbeam laser, IPL Limelight, and Venus Viva all work very well with minimal downtime. 
  
Patients with rosacea may benefit from topical creams to help soothe inflamed skin. We recommend Elevase Moisture Booster. For Post-inflammatory erythema, Plato’s Scar Serum is recommended twice daily. 
  
Best,

Can not fully understand your question, best answered by your dermatologist who performed the procedure as your skin type and PWS will play a role in the specifications or settings. In context of dry skin use Aquaphor, Vaseline or Aqueous cream if needed. Further instructions by your treating specialist. Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
