I need help with prolonged resistant erythema from Fully Ablative Erbium Laser? (Photos)

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,

Hi. Your condition will be classified as prolonged post ablation erythema which in some cases indicates an ongoing low level of inflammation.
My advice will be to use an anti-inflammatory topical soothing and redness relief serum such as phytocorrector from skinceuticals plus a series of vascular laser such as VBeam or Excel V or even microsecond pulse Nd:YAG plus some recovery serum containing growth factors such as essential serum from skin medica.
