Is V-Beam Good for Facial Erythema / Ruddy Complexion?

Question

I have mild rosacea on my cheeks, when i'm not flushed i'm a bit pink. Would V-beam on low settings help me?

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Our protocol for hyper-erythematous redness uses a combination of lasers and Nanofractional RF to help reduce localized and perfuse hypervascularity in the skin. We begin with an evaluation of the redness and evaluate the cause of the hypervascularity. Treatments with Limelight IPL, Vbeam Perfecta, and Nanofractional RF are then used to reduce the blood vessels and telangiectasia within the skin. Patients benefit from post-treatment application of Elevase Moisture Booster with ceramides.

The VBeam laser is the gold standard for treatment anything that is vascular or red. It is great for treating generalized redness, enlarged vessels (telangiectasias), rosacea, hemangiomas, vascular lakes, poikiloderma, and port wine stains, You must make sure that the ruddy complexion is not a cummulation of actinic keratosis, which would be best treat, in my opinion, with Levulan followed by activation with the VBeam.
