Acne / Rosacea Treatments

Most of us get the odd pimple or patch of skin irritation, from time to time, but for some of us spots and blotches are a permanent problem. Acne and Rosacea are common skin complaint we see in the clinic – luckily both are treatable these days.

Improving Rosacea with IPL

Rosacea is a skin ailment involving dilated blood vessels which leave people looking permanently flushed. Sufferers may also get pimples and blotches on the nose and cheeks. Intense Pulsed Light can successfully treat the dilated blood vessels and the red areas without any risk of injury to surrounding areas of healthy skin.

A series of treatments will greatly reduce episodes of flushing, and thread veins can be eradicated. Depending on the extent of the problem good clearance can usually be achieved with 3-4 treatments.
