Rosacea

Intense Pulsed Light treatment has been shown to be very effective in the treatment of Rosacea. It works by a process called photothermolysis. This light therapy selectively destroys the abnormal vessels (thread veins) that cause the Rosacea effect, allowing thicker walled micro vessels to be laid down. 

Treatment can be mildly uncomfortable, but no anaesthesia is required, and most people describe

the discomfort as moderate and acceptable, not unlike a quick pin prick and warm feeling.

The number of sessions required varies from client to client dependant on many factors. Though results can been seen after a few treatments, a minimum of 3 and up to 12 treatments are required to deliver best results. However maintenance may be required. 

Best results are obtained for lighter skin types. We recommend a consultation with your clinician to ascertain if the treatment will be successful for you.
