Rosacea is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition which principally affects the face. Unlike a temporary flush, the redness remains for extended periods of time and if left untreated, could become more persistent and pronounced.
Some of the signs of rosacea include:
- Uncontrollable blushing or flushing
- Persistent redness (similar to a sunburn)
- Raised bumps or pimples with accompanied stinging or burning
- Visible blood vessels
- Thickening of the skin
- Bloodshot eyes

How Does IPL Photorejuvenation Skin Treatment Work?
IPL photorejuvenation is a non-invasive and non-ablative skin treatment that uses high intensity pulses of light to improve the appearance of the skin.
There are a number of benefits associated with this rosacea skin treatment including:
- Elimination of facial redness
- Reduction of bumps and pimples
- Elimination of visible blood vessels
- Can be used on all skin types
- Minimally-invasive & painless
- Requires no downtime
How it works |
This rosacea skin treatment device emits a range of light waves which are precisely calibrated to target the haemoglobin in your blood vessels. This controlled injury triggers the body’s natural response to break down and remove the damaged tissue, replacing the problem area with new cells and clearer, better looking skin |
How long is the treatment? |
The duration of this rosacea skin treatment depends on the size and location of the treatment area. Typically, one IPL photorejuvenation treatment will take approximately 30-90 minutes. |
How many IPL treatments will I need? |
You will be able to see some improvement in your appearance after just one skin treatment. However, a series of 3-5 treatments will help you fully achieve your desired results |
Does IPL Photorejuvenation have any side effects? |
Most patients can return to work immediately after this rosacea skin treatment. However, you may experience some temporary side effects such as:
