Rosacea / Facial Redness
- By using IPL & absorbing superficial blood vessels in the skin, this treatment can be used to diffuse redness and high colour.
- Best results on skin type 1-3
- For optimum results 3-6 treatments are needed at 4 week intervals
- Top up treatments may be needed in the future to maintain these results


Vascular lesions/thread veins
- Using the light source, vascular lesions (thread veins) are broken down by coagulating the blood vessels, diffusing redness to the skin.
- 2-4 treatments are generally necessary to remove thread veins; however this will depend on size and severity of the veins.
- Depending on location & size of vein, a method of advanced electrolysis to cauterize the blood vessels may also be used to remove thread veins.
