32, male, what is the best treatment for redness from facial flushing? (Photos)

Question

Hello there, I’m a 32 year old male wanting to address facial redness caused by flushing. My face is generally on the pink to red side. No Dx of rosacea. Fitzpatrick skin type 2. I believe I’ve narrowed down my search to 3 best options. Excel V+, VBeam, and BBL. I would greatly appreciate expert opinions on which might be best or other options. Thanks for your time. Sincerely, B

You might consider the use of microdroplets of Botox injected in a special grid pattern throughout the red/flushing prone area of the cheeks. It is a is a very simple and relatively inexpensive approach to treating this problem. Although your research has led you to more expensive "bells and whistles" gizmos, you would be wise to exercise a healthy amount of "buyer beware," since the hard science to support the use of any of these devices lags woefully behind the heavy marketing to promote them. And, remember, there's so much misinformation and misleading information out there on the net because there is no regulation of the material nor any fact checker for what's appears there. You would be wise to consult a board certified cosmetic dermatologist, and best of luck.
