Redness/Flushing & Broken Capillaries
Redness and broken capillaries can be caused by a number of things, such as years of sun exposure creating sun damage or can be symptoms associated with a common skin condition called rosacea (see Rosacea under Areas of Concern) and other skin conditions.  These symptoms can be exacerbated by stress, spicy foods and certain topical ointments that contain acids and/or granules.

 
How do you get rid of it?
Redness and flushing are most often treated with topical medications that have been prescribed by the Dermatologist.  However, a pulse-dye laser procedure is best used for treatment of broken capillaries, as topical medications will not address this concern.  Pulse-dye lasers (see Vbeam/Gentle Yag under Laser Procedures) will additionally help with redness and flushing when topical medications have become inefficient or have maximized their potential for the patient.
