Rosacea & Redness Treatment

Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes blushing or flushing and visible blood vessels in your face. It may also produce small, pus-filled bumps. These signs and symptoms may flare up for weeks to months and then go away for a while. Rosacea commonly affects the central third of the face, especially the nose, and its intensity varies over time.

Rosacea symptoms and signs include
Redness of the face (easy facial blushing or flushing), tiny red pimples and fine red vascular lines (telangiectasias) on the facial skin, rhinophyma (an enlarged, bulbous red nose), and eye problems, such as swollen, red eyelids (blepharitis), conjunctivitis, and rosacea keratitis.
• Rosacea may be mistaken for rosy cheeks, sunburn, or quite often, acne.
• Rosacea triggers include alcohol, hot or spicy foods, emotional stress, smoking, and heat.

Rosacea & Reddness Care

Rosacea can affect anyone. But it’s most common in middle-aged white women. There’s no cure for rosacea, but treatment can control and reduce the signs and symptoms. 

The Cutera® Laser treatments for Rosacea

1. Erbium YAG laser
2. Intense pulsed light therapy (IPL)
3. Laser Genesis
4. Laser Toning

 

1064 YAG laser

1064 YAG laser treatment targets visible blood vessels. It’s also used to correct excess tissue that can make the nose appear bulbous, a symptom of phymatous (type 3) rosacea. It can also add to its shape.

Intense pulsed light therapy (IPL)

Intense pulsed light therapy is different than laser therapy. Instead of using one laser that focuses in on your skin, it uses several wavelengths of light at once. IPL aims to get rid of unwanted pigment, redness, or unevenly toned areas of your skin. IPL lighten and reduces redness, rosacea, dilated blood vessels and “broken” blood vessels on the face, neck and chest. It also helps to control flushing and has a lesser effect of improving skin texture through collagen stimulation and improves pore size minimally by temporarily reducing oiliness.

Laser Genesis

The Laser Genesis procedure utilizes non-invasive laser technology to safely, discretely and effectively treat fine line wrinkles, large pores, uneven skin texture, diffuse redness and scars. It evens out mild pink or ruddy skin tones, improves pores and mild scarring. You can expect to see subtle yet consistent results after each treatment, without unwanted side effects such as bruising or excessive skin irritation.

Laser Toning

Hollywood Laser Toning is a fast and painless procedure done to help improve the look of skin. It’s used primarily by people with oily skin, acne, and enlarged or clogged pores. This treatment is also beneficial if you’re starting to see the effects of sun damage to your skin. Laser carbon peels deeply exfoliate skin. They also help stimulate collagen production, and reduces inflammation and redness.
