Rosacea can cause redness that is distressing to live with. Care starts with a medical consultation to discuss your symptoms and treatment options. Laser treatment may help with visible redness and blood vessels.
Which of these is right for you is a decision for your physician, made at your consultation once they have assessed your skin — this page is a starting point, not a diagnosis.
Laser Skin Treatments
Laser treatment for a smoother complexion, brighter sun-damaged skin, benign pigmented lesions, and visible face and leg veins. Each protocol is tailored to your skin tone and the concern being treated.
A Laser Facial is suited to sun-damaged skin, red or ruddy complexions, light telangiectasia (spider veins), and uneven pigmentation — most often on the face but usable almost anywhere on the body. Each protocol is tailored to skin tone and needs.
Avoid sun exposure for one week before a Laser Facial treatment.
Suggested course
Laser Facial: 3–6 treatments usually required for lasting results. Benign pigmented lesions: more even colour is often visible in as few as 2 treatments, with a full course of 4 at 3–4 week intervals. Vascular treatments (spider veins): often clear in as few as 2 treatments, spaced 4–8 weeks apart.
