Condition
Rosacea & Visible Veins
Wavelength: 1064nm Nd:YAG
Rosacea causes persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes bumps on the face. Spider veins and cherry angiomas are visible blood vessels that appear on the face and legs. These conditions can significantly impact confidence and quality of life.
Why it happens
Vascular concerns can be influenced by genetics, sun exposure, heat, alcohol, inflammation, hormones, skin sensitivity, aging, or pressure in small vessels.
Before treatment
Avoid tanning, heat exposure, and strong skin irritation before treatment.
Tell Apex about blood thinners, clotting concerns, vascular conditions, medications, pregnancy status, or recent procedures.
Avoid aggressive exfoliation or active skincare as instructed.
Arrive with clean skin and no makeup on the area when possible.
Bring photos or notes if your redness flares with specific triggers.
Post-treatment expectations
Temporary redness, swelling, warmth, or purpura can occur depending on the vessel and settings.
Avoid heat, hot yoga, saunas, intense exercise, and alcohol as directed after treatment.
Use gentle skincare and sun protection while the skin settles.
Vessels may fade gradually as the body clears treated tissue.
Multiple sessions may be needed and rosacea can still flare from triggers.
How Apex Treats It
The 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength of the Candela GentleMax Pro Plus can be selected for suitable vascular concerns after assessment. Apex checks vessel type, skin tone, medications, triggers, and history so treatment is planned carefully and expectations stay realistic.
