The Redness & Vein Eraser treatment works by using advanced energy-based technology to target and collapse small, dilated blood vessels beneath the skin’s surface. This reduces the appearance of redness, rosacea, and superficial veins. The heat generated by the treatment helps to constrict these blood vessels, which minimizes the redness and inflammation associated with rosacea. When combined with an appropriate skincare routine, the treatment helps keep redness and flare-ups under control, promoting long-term improvement and a more even skin tone.
Your appointment time will depend on the area being treated, but is typically scheduled for 30 minutes.
The results of this treatment can last several months to over a year, depending on your skin type and lifestyle factors. Regular maintenance treatments, along with a good skincare routine, can help prolong the results and keep redness and rosacea under control. Factors like sun exposure, stress, and certain triggers may cause new flare-ups over time, but with proper care, the effects of the treatment can be long-lasting.
You may need multiple treatments to achieve your desired results; sometimes stubborn facial veins make take up to three treatments. Our expert estheticians can help you determine what is needed to meet your goals.
