Rosacea Treatment Results: What to Expect

After a rosacea treatment session, most clients notice reduced redness and a calmer skin tone within days. There may be some temporary warmth or light flushing post-procedure, which usually resolves within 24 hours. With continued care and follow-up sessions, flare-ups become less frequent, and the skin’s texture and tone significantly improve.

What Causes Rosacea and Flushing?

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition often triggered by sun exposure, temperature extremes, spicy foods, alcohol, or stress. It causes visible blood vessels, prolonged redness, and skin sensitivity. In Edmonton’s dry, cold climate, rosacea symptoms can intensify due to environmental stress on the skin. While rosacea isn’t curable, proper treatment and management can keep it under control.

How Rosacea Treatment Works

IPL and vascular lasers deliver targeted light energy into dilated blood vessels and pigmented areas. This collapses the vessels without damaging surrounding skin, reducing redness and calming flare-ups. Multiple sessions enhance results over time and keep symptoms under control.

We provide a multi-modal approach to rosacea, combining advanced technology and medical-grade care. Our most effective options include:

  • IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): Ideal for diffused redness and flushing, IPL targets dilated blood vessels and reduces redness by delivering precise light pulses deep into the skin.
  • Vascular Laser Therapy: This focused treatment targets larger broken capillaries and visible facial veins. It’s especially effective for clients with visible red lines or blood vessel patterns on the cheeks and nose.
  • Rosacea-Safe Medical Facials: Gentle facials infused with anti-inflammatory ingredients can calm the skin, boost hydration, and strengthen the skin barrier without triggering flare-ups.
  • ZO Skin Health Products: Our clinic-exclusive medical skincare line includes rosacea-safe products with calming agents, niacinamide, and antioxidants to reduce sensitivity and flare-ups between treatments.
  • Lifestyle and Trigger Management: Our team will work with you to identify common rosacea triggers—such as heat, spicy foods, alcohol, and stress—and provide a skincare and lifestyle plan to help minimize them.

By combining in-clinic treatments with proper at-home skincare, we help you manage your rosacea symptoms effectively and regain comfort and confidence in your skin.

For even greater improvements in skin comfort and clarity, we often combine rosacea treatments with a HydraFacial or personalized ZO medical skincare regimen. These options deliver deep hydration, calm inflammation, and strengthen your skin barrier—making flare-ups less likely and your results longer lasting.

Not a Candidate for IPL? Explore These Alternatives

If your skin isn’t suited for IPL or you’re targeting more than just redness, we offer powerful alternatives like the Fraxel laser for advanced skin resurfacing or microneedling to smooth texture and stimulate collagen. These treatments are especially helpful for rosacea clients with roughness, enlarged pores, or lingering redness.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best treatment for rosacea?

The best treatment depends on your rosacea type and symptoms. We may recommend IPL, vascular laser therapy, calming facials, or a medical skincare regimen. For some, a combination of treatments provides the best long-term results.
Yes, but timing matters. If you’re currently using topical medications like Metrogel (metronidazole) or Rosiver (ivermectin), we may ask you to pause their use a few days before and after laser or light-based treatments to prevent skin sensitivity. During consultation, we’ll guide you on how to safely integrate in-clinic treatments with your prescription routine.
No—while IPL is highly effective for diffuse redness and flushing, we also offer vascular laser therapy for broken capillaries, soothing medical facials, and ZO medical-grade skincare to help manage symptoms between treatments.
Most treatments involve minimal discomfort. IPL and vascular laser may feel like a light rubber band snap, while facials and skincare are completely gentle. We always tailor the procedure to your comfort level.
Most clients need 3–5 initial sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance treatments every 6–12 months, depending on severity and lifestyle triggers.
Rosacea is a chronic condition with no permanent cure, but with consistent care and the right treatment plan, symptoms can be dramatically reduced and controlled over time.
