Skin Redness
Treatments
Vascular phototherapy and barrier-repair protocols that target chronic flushing, broken capillaries, and post-acne red marks (PIE). Treatments collapse damaged vessels and restore an even skin tone.
How Redness Treatment Works
Skin redness typically stems from two root causes: structural vascular dilation (rosacea, broken capillaries) and surface inflammation (Post-Inflammatory Erythema left over from healed acne).
Treating structural redness requires closing the damaged pathways. Targeted light therapy (BBL) heats and coagulates broken blood vessels beneath the skin, forcing the body to reabsorb them and clearing visible red webs from the surface.
For inflammatory redness and PIE, we focus on rebuilding the skin's defensive barrier using tailored chemical exfoliants and deep hydration. By treating both the vessels and the barrier, we reduce flare-ups and restore a consistent, even tone.

Skin Redness Reviews
"I've struggled with a red, flushed face for 15 years and was tired of always looking hot. After just two BBL sessions with Lauren, the baseline redness on my cheeks is completely gone. I can finally wear zero foundation."
"The broken capillaries on my nose were making me so self-conscious. Jaycee used the laser to trace them, and they literally vanished instantly. It was like magic. Highly, highly recommend."
"My skin is incredibly reactive and stings constantly. Christian put me on a custom calming facial regimen and completely fixed my skin barrier. The stinging has stopped and the redness is so much better."
"I had horrible red PIE marks left over from cystic acne. I thought they were permanent scars. The Laser Facial completely wiped them out in 3 sessions. My skin is totally clear."

Questions
What to know before booking a skin redness treatment at ELLEMES.
It depends on the cause. Broken capillaries and sun-induced redness can be destroyed permanently. However, genetic flushing (like rosacea) is a chronic vascular condition that requires ongoing management and maintenance sessions.
PIE refers to the flat, pink or red marks left behind after a cystic acne breakout heals. This is caused by vascular damage and trapped blood beneath the skin. It is treated differently than brown marks (PIH) and responds well to Chemical Peels and gentle Laser Facials.
Most patients find BBL vascular treatments very tolerable. It often feels like a quick, warm rubber band snapping against the skin. Because redness-prone skin is inherently sensitive, we use advanced sapphire cooling tips on our lasers to keep the skin comfortable throughout the procedure.
If your skin stings when you apply basic moisturizers, you likely have a severely compromised skin barrier (often from over-exfoliating or using too much retinol). In this case, you need barrier repair and soothing hydration, not more lasers or peels.
For initial clearance of distinct broken capillaries, it often takes 1 to 3 sessions. For widespread diffuse redness or severe PIE, we typically recommend 3 to 6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart to achieve a consistent, even tone.
