Dermal Treatment
This includes laser therapy and other treatments like dermabrasion and electrocautery typically done by professionals on the skin directly. [5] Laser therapy involves the use of intense light to clear enlarged blood vessels. [6] The procedure can be painful but you do not require an anesthetic. Temporary side effects you may experience include bruising, tenderness, swelling, and crusty of the skin. You may need to do this once in a while to retain the appearance of your skin.
Dermabrasion is a procedure where the top layer of skin is filed off. It is usually used for rosacea that has caused severe thickening of the skin. Electrocautery is used to treat rosacea by clearing damaged blood vessels on the skin with an electric current.
