Summary: IPL And Laser Versus Topical Treatment For Rosacea and Facial Redness
IPL And Laser Versus Topical Treatment For Rosacea and Facial Redness
As promised, here is my second article in my 'Red Complexion & Rosacea series. This article deals with the topic of permanent facial redness that includes an investigation into the truths, myths, costs and pros and cons of available treatments.
My first article 'Flushing, Blushing, Facial Redness Misconceptions and Treatments' dealt with flushing, which is a natural automated, psychological or allergic response to the environment.
Furthermore, the first article highlighted the fact that these responses can be reduced, controlled and prevented using a combination of methods and treatments. These include relaxation, physical exercise, lifestyle changes, topical treatments and natural supplements; or in extreme cases prescribed medication and therapy maybe necessary.
Permanent facial redness is a physical condition whereby the blood vessels and capillaries have become damaged as a consequence of:
Over exposure to the sun. Long term and frequent unhealthy flushing (not physical exercise flushing). Toxins caused by long term high alcohol consumption. Hereditary condition. Symptoms of rosacea. Free radicals that damage skin. Example, from smoking.Damaged blood vessels or thread veins are often referred to as broken. This does not imply they are leaking, it means they have become permanently dilated. As a result the blood constantly remains visible. If rosacea symptoms are present, lumps, bumps, and thickened red skin may accompany the visible capillaries.
How is Permanent Facial Redness Treated?
Facial redness and damaged capillaries can be treated by using either topical creams or IPL (Intense Pulse Light Therapy) and Laser treatment. The aim of topical treatments is to shrink damaged blood vessels and capillaries and strengthen skin cell walls against future damage. Laser & IPL treatments target and destroy damaged blood vessels and capillaries.
The most commonly asked question by people experiencing facial redness and rosacea is; which type of treatment is best?
Laser and IPL Treatments
Laser Treatment can only be applied by certified medical professionals. It works by emitting an intense narrow beam of light heats and destroys the damaged capillary. There is a slight risk of scar ring with laser treatment.
IPL Treatment can be applied by non certified people such as beauty salon assistants. IPL flashes light, which matches the color of blood in the vessel. The IPL light energy is absorbed by the blood in the vessel, the blood is heated and the vessel is damaged and removed, but all other tissues around the blood vessel are not affected. IPL is more popular for this type of treatment as it is faster, supposedly gives less after effects and there is no risk of scarring.
Misconceptions
Instant results.
Truths
It takes around 5 treatments over a 6 month period for best results.
Pros
High success rate. Visible results in just a few treatments.Cons
Painful with swelling sometimes experienced afterwards that can last a few days. Possible side effects; hyperpigmentation, nausea and swelling High cost, up to 00 for 5 treatments. The risk of getting a poor quality treatment by unprofessional IPL operators. No Money Back GuaranteeReputable Topical Treatments
Quality topical treatments endorsed by the medical profession contain natural active ingredients that aim to reduce inflammation, promote healing as well as nourishing and strengthening the skin. The philosophy behind this type of treatment is that it aims to treat the root cause and not just the immediate symptoms.
Misconceptions
Fast results
Truths
Like laser and IPL treatments, they take a few months before effective results are seen.
Pros
It costs a fraction of laser/IPL at around 0 for a 6 month treatment. No side effects Long termCons
Lower success rate than Laser/IPL Visible results take longer than with Laser/IPL.Which To Choose?
There is no 100% guarantee that either solution will work, or that the redness symptoms or damaged capillaries will not return. However, by choosing a proven topical treatment first, and the treatments produced your desired results, then this would save you a considerable amount of money
