Enjoy Clearer, Healthier-Looking Skin with Laser Therapy
Often confused with a severe case of acne, rosacea is a chronic condition that typically affects people in their 30s and 40s. Nearly 20 million people throughout North America suffer from the flushing and red patches that are often associated with rosacea and other skin-reddening conditions. Rosacea typically affects skin on the face, including the cheeks, nose, chin and forehead, and if left untreated it typically worsens over time. The subtle redness often progresses to more defined papules and pustules, unsightly bumps and pimples made even more visible due to nearby dilated blood vessels. People with rosacea may also experience ocular rosacea, signalled by redness, itchiness, or a burning sensation in the eyes or eyelids.
Until recently, people suffering from rosacea relied on creams and antibiotics to treat outbreaks of rosacea. Laser treatment for rosacea is now an option for patients with the condition. Now, thanks to laser therapy at the Laser Essential & Skin Care clinic in Toronto, people who suffer from rosacea no longer have to live with the condition. Using pinpoint laser technology, the vascular structures that are responsible for causing rosacea are destroyed. As time passes, the vessels are absorbed by the body and fade from sight, leaving patients with clearer, healthier-looking skin.
How many treatments are required to eliminate rosacea?
Patients typically respond after three to six laser therapy treatments, which are normally administered in three- to four-week intervals.
How long does each treatment last?
Depending on the size of the rosacea outbreak, a laser therapy treatment typically lasts between 20 and 30 minutes.
Is laser therapy painful?
Most patients describe laser therapy as a slight sting or pinch, similar to being snapped with a rubber band. To alleviate the need for topical anesthetics, rosacea patients at the Laser Essential & Skin Care in Toronto benefit from our Zimmer Cryo Chiller, a new technology that reduces discomfort during a laser procedure by blowing a constant stream of cool air over the surface of your skin. With the Zimmer Cryo Chiller, a computer-controlled cryogen applicator maintains the skin temperature to a comfortable level.
Is there any downtime following laser therapy?
No. Patients are free to resume all daily activities immediately following a procedure, although your Laser Essential & Skin Care specialist will advise you on certain limitations, such as avoiding sun exposure for four to six weeks.
Can people of all skin types benefit from laser therapy?
Yes. The state-of-the-art lasers at the Laser Essential & Skin Care clinic offer customized treatment to most skin type.
How much does Rosacea laser treatment cost?
