Facial Redness

Couperose is a dermatological condition characterized by the presence of telangiectasias, or dilated capillaries visible on the skin's surface, that mainly appear on cheeks, nose, and sometimes chin. This phenomenon is due to an alteration of cutaneous microcirculation, which leads to persistent dilation of blood vessels. The result is diffuse redness, often accompanied by increased skin sensitivity, sensation of warmth, itching, or mild burning. Often, couperose is considered an initial stage of rosacea, a chronic inflammatory condition that, in more advanced cases, can evolve into more intense and persistent redness, accompanied by skin thickening and more marked inflammation.

Vascular Laser: The Gold Standard for Couperose Vascular laser is one of the most effective treatments for eliminating visible telangiectasias. It works by emitting a specific wavelength that is absorbed by hemoglobin in capillaries, causing their progressive closure without damaging surrounding tissues. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL): For Evening Skin Tone IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a technology that uses polychromatic light pulses to reduce redness and improve skin tone. Unlike laser, it acts on a wider range of wavelengths, allowing treatment of both dilated capillaries and diffuse erythema. It's particularly indicated for sensitive skin and for those with moderate couperose. Regenerative Treatments: The Role of Lipogems Clinics that adopt advanced regenerative approaches offer treatments with Lipogems, a technique based on the use of autologous adipose tissue to restore skin balance. The harvested fat is purified and injected into the skin to stimulate cell regeneration and improve capillary quality. This treatment reduces inflammation, redness, and skin sensitivity, offering long-term benefits. Treatment of couperose at Image involves a combined approach between advanced technologies, regenerative treatments, and targeted skincare. Laser and pulsed light are the most effective solutions for eliminating visible capillaries, while techniques like Lipogems and transdermal treatments help strengthen the skin and improve microcirculation.
