Rosy cheeks may be a sign of health, but they can also be a sign of a bothersome and now easily correctible skin condition. Diffuse redness refers to a general redness caused by dilated capillaries just below the skins surface. Areas most commonly affected are the nose, forehead and cheeks. Diffuse redness is often associated with a condition called rosacea, and it can be hereditary. Now an innovative technology recently introduced by Cutera, one of the leading developers of laser-based skincare devices, can effectively treat diffuse redness on the face and neck. The device, Laser Genesis, can destroy fine capillaries just below the skin. The capillaries and blood they carried are reabsorbed into the body, and nourishing blood flow circulation continues in the normal veins deeper below the skins surface.Laser Genesis treatments are simple and typically have no side effects. A trained skincare professional moves the laser handpiece back and forth over the treatment area about one-half inch above the skin. Patients usually feel a gentle warming of the skins surface, and describe the procedure as relaxing and therapeutic. You can immediately return to normal activities, simply using sunscreen if engaging in outdoor activities. The individual treatment results are subtle, but the overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic. We use Laser Genesis at our medical spa in Summit, New Jersey for treating diffuse redness as well as conditions associated with sun exposure and premature aging of the skin, and are very pleased with the results, as are our patients.
