Broken Blood Vessels - Face/Body
Treatment for broken blood vessels (also known as telangiectasias) on the face and body may include a combination of radio frequency therapy, laser genesis, and IPL (intense pulsed light). Here is a general outline of a treatment plan that may be personalized for you at Olive Tree Med Spa:
Consultation: Before starting treatment, it is important to have a consultation with a qualified medical professional to assess the severity of your broken blood vessels and discuss your treatment goals. They will also assess your overall health and any medications you are taking to ensure that the treatment is safe for you.
Radio frequency therapy: Radio frequency therapy uses heat to target and destroy the blood vessels that cause broken capillaries on the skin. The heat is delivered through a handheld device that is passed over the affected area. This treatment is generally well-tolerated and has little downtime.
Laser genesis: Laser genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment that uses heat to stimulate collagen production and improve the appearance of broken blood vessels. The laser is passed over the skin and produces a warming sensation. This treatment may require multiple sessions to achieve desired results.
IPL: IPL (intense pulsed light) is a light-based treatment that uses a broadband of light to target and destroy broken blood vessels on the skin. The light is delivered through a handheld device that is passed over the affected area. This treatment may also require multiple sessions to achieve desired results.
It is important to follow the instructions of your medical professional and use any recommended aftercare products to maximize the benefits of your treatment and minimize the risk of side effects. It is also important to protect your skin from the sun and to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 to help prevent further damage to your skin.
