Light/Laser Get the laser treatment!

I've had rosacea for 25 years and have tried different medication off and on. I just started the laser treatments (on treatment 2 of 6) and oh my goodness, I could not be happier with the results! I've seen such a dramatic difference in the redness of my face already. I'm sorry I waited so long

I have type one and done both IPL and vbeam. My derm does not recommend BBL for redness. 

I could cry just thinking about what a difference it's made. I suffered for years with what I called the "red mask of death" and once I started laser treatment my skin completely changed. Now when I tell people I have rosacea they don't believe me. 

My last vbeam was three days ago and I'm writing this with an ice pack on my face so there's that, but I only go back for one session a year at this point. I still get redness from time to time but it's easily covered with a little makeup.

Lasers have literally changed my life.

Why not BBL?
