Couperose

Couperose lasernCouperose or Rosacea is a genetic dilation of the small superficial blood vessels in the skin. They often occur in the area of the nose (nostrils), cheeks, and also on the chin.

With intense pulsed light (IPL) the skin appearance can be considerably improved.

TREATMENT PROCEDURE

The light pulse is absorbed by the hemoglobin, the blood pigment, in the blood of the vessel, where it is converted into heat. The sudden heating of the vessel causes coagulation, clotting of the blood. This prevents further blood flow through the vessel, which is now destroyed. The heat in the vessel walls causes inflammation, resulting in their adhesion. At that point, the vessel is effectively destroyed.

It takes 2 to 5 treatments at intervals of 3 to 6 weeks.

WHAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED BEFORE THE PULSED LIGHT TREATMENT?
For 3 weeks before and after the treatment, avoid sunbathing, visiting a solarium, and applying self-tanning cream or any products containing acids.
WHAT DOES A TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?
In the beginning, the skin zone is measured to determine your melanin index with the Skintel (determination of your skin type), then the treatment can be started. In the end, the skin is treated with a skincare cream as well as sun protection.
HOW DOES THE TREATMENT FEEL?
Depending on the skin zone, the flash is perceived as a picking, heat impulse, or short pain.
HOW LONG DOES A TREATMENT TAKE?
From 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the zone and the effort required.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS DOES IT TAKE?
It takes 2 to 5 treatments.
CAN ALL SKIN TYPES BE TREATED?
Only skin types I-IV can be treated. Darker skin types cannot be treated.
WHAT IS THE TREATMENT PROCEDURE?
The skin vessels will turn dark red-gray. Redness and swelling may occur, which usually disappear within a few hours. In large areas, the swelling can last up to a week.
HOW DOES THE TECHNIQUE WORK?
This intense filtered light is selectively absorbed by the superficial skin vessels, heating and destroying them for a short time. The stagnated blood is expelled from the body. The skin vessels are destroyed.
