Rosacea / flushing / facial redness treatment report from: Dan

Would they recommend this: Yes

TreatmentType: Photoderm, view reports of all Photoderm treatments

Details: I have had Vbeam and Photoderm/IPL over the past two years and have had mixed results. I have had my first IPL and the results were good. Vbeam seems to be good for treating more visible veins near the surface, meanwhile the IPL is seemingly better for treating an overall deep redness from damaged skin. I am going for my second treatment today and hopefully I will see the same improvement. I have also noticed that if you get good results sometimes it is good to just leave it at that and not strive for perfection because sometimes these treatments can have a negative effect; I don't care what any doctor might tell you. IPL also contributes to better looking skin in my opinion by helping with acne and just an overall smoother look. However, when I first completed my second Vbeam my face was virtually perfect and then I thought I could do whatever I want (excessively drink) and then it went back to my normal state and never returned through Vbeam.
