Auburn Rosacea treatments, blood vessell treatments in roseville






	Laser Services (Services > Laser Services > Facial Redness, Vessels, and Rosacea) FACIAL REDNESS, VESSELS, AND ROSACEA Rosacea is a common, chronic skin condition that causes redness and inflammation of the face. It is usually found on the cheeks and nose but can also affect the forehead and chin. Enlarged vessels and capillaries are often visible. Patients complain that they “blush” easily and will have intense flushing after a shower or exercise. With our IPL photofacial treatments, at last the embarrassing flushing and redness of rosacea can be treated. Patients will also note that their sunspots also fade. Although the treatments are not specifically designed to treat pore size, many report that they notice an improvement in not only pore size but tone and texture as well. The treatments are gentle, safe, and effective, with little down time. Unlike at medi-spas and most doctor’s offices, Dr. Shibayama insists on evaluating and performing all photofacials herself for optimal safety and effectiveness. What areas can be treated? The most commonly requested areas are the face, neck, and chest. Dr. Shibayama will customize a treatment plan according to your skin type. What is the treatment like? The skin is first cleansed. The laser is then passed gently over the skin. Our revolutionary cooling tip keeps the skin cool and comfortable before, during, and after the pulsed light is emitted. Patients often describe the sensation as similar to a mild rubber band snap against the skin. Treatments are quick--a full face photofacial takes about 15 minutes. Afterwards there is some redness and a sunburn like sensation for a few hours up to a few days. Normal activities can be resumed immediately and makeup can be applied although sunscreen is recommended on the treated areas. How many treatments are needed? In general 3-5 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart are recommended for optimal reduction in redness. The results will last for months to years, depending on compliance with the use of sunscreens. A broad spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen will protect your investment for a longer time. With redness and rosacea an occasional (once or twice a year) touch up may be beneficial. All procedures are performed by Dr. Shibayama.
