Redness, Flushing & Rosacea-Type Concerns

Diffuse redness
Rosacea-type flushing and visible vessels
Small facial telangiectasia

How it happens (physiology)

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disorder involving vascular dysregulation (abnormal dilation/reactivity of superficial facial vessels) and immune dysregulation, sometimes with Demodex and microbiome involvement.

Variations

Erythematotelangiectatic: flushing, persistent redness, visible capillaries.
Papulopustular: redness with inflammatory papules/pustules.
Phymatous: thickening, especially nasal.
Ocular: eye involvement.

Severity & treatment approach

Mild diffuse redness: vascular-safe skincare, lifestyle triggers addressed, possible gentle IPL/1064 nm laser.
Moderate (visible vessels, frequent flares): combination of medical therapy (topicals/orals via physician) and procedural options (IPL / vascular laser) spaced appropriately.
Severe or phymatous/ocular involvement: primarily managed medically (often dermatology) with procedures as adjunct; energy-based devices need cautious, staged use.
