Studies have demonstrated that red tones in the face\nhave the strongest correlation to the perception of poor health by others\nviewing us\u2014more than any other aesthetic complaint of aging. Fortunately for us,\nthe treatment of red tones and broken capillaries can easily be addressed very\neffectively with the use of laser therapy.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lasers for red lesions on the face (i.e. birthmarks, broken\ncapillaries, scars, red tones) represent one of the oldest and most successful\nuses of lasers. This 30-year-old treatment uses the scientific premise called\nselective photothermolysis. This technique works by selectively heating hemoglobin,\nwhich is conveniently found in blood vessels, the fundamental target for red\naesthetic complaints. Hemoglobin absorbs yellow light more efficiently than any\nother component of the skin. Using a yellow laser can heat hemoglobin\nselectively, while leaving all the other structures of the skin unharmed.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This technique can be safely used on infants and toddlers\nwith vascular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skinwellnessflorida.com\/medical\/birthmarks.html\">birthmarks<\/a>,\nwithout the need of general or local anesthesia. Adults can also easily\ntolerate this procedure to remove aesthetic nuisances such as broken\ncapillaries. Patients suffering from rosacea often develop differing degrees of\npermanent redness, ranging from the occasional flushing to matted and broken\ncapillaries to a permanent red look\u2014which can all be treated quite successfully\nwith lasers.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you are bothered by the chronic look of feeling flushed\nor are interested in giving yourself a healthier appearance, let your provider\nknow so that we can properly consult with you on this very predictable and safe\nprocedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out more about lasers for Naples, Marco Island, Bonita\nSprings, Ft.
