How IPL/Laser Works?
- It is believed that the light from IPL and pulse dye Lasers have two actions that help in Rosacea.
- Firstly, red thread veins absorb the light energy, which makes them hot. This damage encourages the body to reabsorb the veins, improving and fading their appearance.
- Secondly, the light energy warms the collagen fibres in the skin. This stimulates new collagen and collagen remodelling, which improves the support of the small blood vessels and helps to delay the development of more thread veins.
- The heated/dried blood then gets cleared away by the white blood cells in a process called phagocytosis.
- By treating the blood vessels the vascular response is diminished.

More InformationÂ
How does Rosacea treatment work?
- We use a combination approach to treat Rosacea. We will combine the following with our Laser/IPL treatment to further improve your skin and enhance the results from treatment.
- We will look at your diet, it is known that a high acidic diet can be a contributing factor to Rosacea.
- We will look at your lifestyle, any stressful situations can worsen Rosacea.
- The type of work you do, if you’re working outdoors without sun protection you can develop Rosacea.
- Homecare products you use can irritate Rosacea, so it’s important we introduce calming products specific for Rosacea.
- Vitamins and Minerals you can consume to help maintain healthy function of the skin.
How our Laser and Light treatment works?
- Light based treatments of vascular lesions deliver sufficient energy to the vessels in order to thermo coagulate the vessel with minimal damage to the surrounding skin.
- Following the treatment, the damage vessels are absorbed by the body and the skin appears less red.
- IPLs and pulsed dye lasers are excellent to use on diffused redness as they are superficial.
Techniques We Use
- Pulse Stacking, this involves stacking the energies. First shot oxyhemoglobin is converted into methemoglobin and metahemoglobin will be absorbed better by a second shot. This is a more effective treatment method.
- Paintbrush feathering techniques using Lasers delivering up to 12000 pulses to whole face per treatment.
Who is suitable for the Treatment?
- Our Treatment is suitable for most people who suffer from embarrassing red facial flush, however, best results are obtained for those with fair skin, and there is less chance of side effects.

- If you are on certain medications that make you unsuitable for laser/IPL treatment. In this case the client will be advised to come off the medication for several weeks before returning for the treatment.
What steps are involved in the treatment?
- Your skin is cleansed with a gentle gel cleanser suitable for more sensitive skin.
- Goggles are put over the eyes and a chilled gel is applied to the skin to aid light absorption by the vessel.
- The light applicator is then placed onto the skin and a short pulse of light is released. The applicator is moved to the neighbouring area and the process is repeated until the entire area is treated.
- The gel is removed and skin cleaned up.
- The treated area is cooled to prevent residual burning sensation.
- A special Rosacea cream is applied to the face.
- A tinted Sun Protection cream is applied before you leave the clinic.
How long does the treatment take?
