Rosacea is a common condition which can cause redness, bumps, swelling, and/or dilated blood vessels (called telangiectasias) especially on the nose, cheeks, forehead, and chin. Rosacea is a chronic condition and rarely resolves without treatment.
The cause of rosacea is still unknown, but there are a number of exacerbating factors that should be avoided. Triggers of rosacea include but are not limited to sunlight, wind, cold or hot temperatures, alcohol, spicy foods, hot drinks, skin care products, rubbing or scrubbing of the face, and exercise. Sun block of at least SPF 30 and hats are recommended. Rosacea treatment options vary widely, depending on symptoms. Facial redness and acne-like lesions are often treated with oral antibiotics and topical medications and telangiectasias can be treated with laser therapy.
DermaSculpt Fractional Laser - The DermaSculpt Fractional Laser Treatment is designed to address acne scars, scars, wrinkles, uneven pigmentation and wrinkles around the eyes. It treats aging or sun damaged skin by targeting sections of the skin matrix that have been damaged. It then generates microscopic ‘wounds’ within that area, thereby triggering the body’s natural healing response, boosting the production of both collagen and new skin cells.
Intense Pulsed Light Laser - Intense Pulsed Light therapy (IPL) is an effective and efficient treatment for skin pigmentations including brown spots, sun spots, lentigos, and melasma. The IPL is a high energy beam which penetrates the superficial skin layer and is selectively absorbed by the pigmented cells underneath the skin causing them to fragment into minute particles. These minute particles are then removed later on by the body’s systems.
Pulsed Dye Laser – Pulsed dye laser (PDL) is a type of laser therapy used for treatment of age spots, moles, psoriasis and birthmarks. PDL uses a beam of light at a specific wavelength and is used for conditions or spots on the skin which are made up of blood and blood vessels. This laser can be used for all ages and all skin types. Pulsed-dye laser treatments are minimally invasive and may cause bruising which may last a few days.
V-Raser Vascular Laser – The V-Raser laser delivers safe, effective treatment of common high-flow blood vessels, including red and blue vessels especially on the face.
