Laser Treatment for Rosacea – Before and After

Rosacea is a common chronic skin condition that often affects people of Northern European descent. While its exact cause isn’t fully understood, rosacea can appear in different forms. Some types resemble acne, with bumps and pimples, while others—like the case shown here—cause persistent redness and visible blood vessels.

For many patients, topical or oral medications can help reduce inflammation and flare-ups. However, when rosacea progresses to fixed redness and broken capillaries, these symptoms will not go away with medication alone. In these cases, the most effective option is laser treatment.

The patient featured here had long-standing redness and fine blood vessels across the cheeks. After evaluation, we recommended the Aerolase Neo—an advanced, gentle laser that safely targets redness and visible vessels without damaging surrounding skin.

How the Aerolase Neo Works for Rosacea

The Aerolase Neo uses a unique 650-microsecond pulse technology to deliver energy deep into the skin. This energy closes off abnormal blood vessels and reduces inflammation, leading to clearer, more even-toned skin. Treatments are well-tolerated, require no downtime, and can be performed on all skin types.

In the before image, redness and dilated vessels are clearly visible. In the after image, you can see a dramatic reduction in redness, improved skin tone, and a healthier overall appearance. The appearance of the skin will continue to improve over time as the body continues to breakdown the treated vessels.

If you have rosacea that hasn’t improved with medication—or if redness and visible blood vessels are affecting your confidence—laser treatment may be the answer.

Make an appointment at Aglow Dermatology to have your rosacea evaluated and learn if the Aerolase Neo or another treatment option is right for you.
