Just because it is red does not mean it is facial flushing.

This is a condition that requires a diagnosis from a dermatologist for accurate differentiation from facial flushing, as it involves a combination of various conditions that can be mistaken for facial flushing, such as seborrheic dermatitis, acne, demodectic mange, and folliculitis.
Facial flushing is a condition in which blood vessels in the face or nose expand due to various causes and become visible on the epidermis. While most people only recognize facial flushing as the symptom of the face turning red, it can also occur due to the expansion of capillaries or inflammation such as folliculitis or seborrheic dermatitis.
If you suspect symptoms of facial flushing, you must first receive an accurate diagnosis and undergo step-by-step treatment to prevent the condition from worsening. At PHD Dermatology, we identify the precise cause and proceed with treatment based on a thorough plan.

Using continuous light source LEDs for more objective and accurate skin measurements
With four light sources, all implemented using LEDs, the effects before and after the procedure can be verified through images showing evenly distributed light.
By using a total of four light sources—UV light, polarized light, normal light, and gloss light—it is possible to integrate data captured from these four sources to accurately analyze various skin problems objectively.
PHD Dermatology Facial Flushing Treatment At PHD Dermatology, various treatment options are available to provide customized care for patients.
Facial flushing is difficult to define as a single condition. Since it manifests as a result of various conditions or diseases, treatment and prevention vary depending on the cause.
At PHD Dermatology, after a dermatologist performs an accurate differential diagnosis (compared to conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, acne, demodectic mange, and folliculitis), we combine appropriate drug treatment (oral antibiotics, topical agents such as Soolantra and Rosacea Gel) and barrier strengthening treatment (LDM management, recommendation of appropriate moisturizers) rather than just non-unconditional laser treatment.

The key to treating facial flushing! You must treat dilated capillaries and damaged blood vessels.

Laser treatment that directly treats dilated and damaged blood vessels and restores elasticity to the surrounding skin
Since facial flushing is often caused by vascular issues, we recommend laser treatment capable of treating vascular lesions. PHD Dermatology is equipped with a variety of vascular treatment lasers, allowing us to effectively treat various vascular lesions—ranging from thin vessels close to the skin surface to vessels of varying sizes—depending on the skin condition.

Principle of laser treatment for facial flushing

It targets hemoglobin, which produces the red color in the blood.
Facial flushing occurs when blood accumulates in the face due to the dilation of blood vessels, causing the face to appear red. To treat facial flushing, symptoms improve if the widened blood vessels are narrowed or removed. The principle involves irradiating a laser that is absorbed by hemoglobin to momentarily raise its temperature, using this heat to destroy surrounding blood vessels. This reduces redness and simultaneously makes the skin smoother.

Maximizing treatment effects through lesion treatment and collagen production induction

Break away from standardized treatments and use high-performance laser equipment optimized for flushing and vascular treatment.

We provide customized solutions using lasers that are excellent for treating facial flushing, tailored to the specific symptoms and the laser and treatment methods.
V-Beam Perfecta
GentleMax (1064nm long-pulse Nd:YAG laser)
Silfirm X
Ellipse I2PL
LDM Management (Redness Mode)
Use of the 595nm wavelength, most effective for vascular treatment

V-Beam Perfecta, capable of selectively treating only blood vessels

This is a laser machine capable of selectively treating lesions using a wavelength of 595nm, which is well absorbed by hemoglobin. Because the laser beam width can be widely adjusted from 0.45m to 40msec, it is a laser that does not cause thermal damage to surrounding normal tissue. Additionally, it is equipped within the V-Beam (Perfecta) laser, and the application of cryogen effectively cools the epidermis, protecting it from heat during laser pulses.
Use of wavelengths effective for vascular treatment
By utilizing the 595nm wavelength, which is most effective for vascular treatment, energy is delivered only to the vascular lesion site, enabling more effective treatment.
Treatment that does not cause thermal damage to surrounding normal tissue
It works very effectively because it can deliver high energy to the lesion more safely by lowering the energy density per micro pulse with 8 micro pulses and delivering energy uniformly to the lesion site.
Minimize skin damage with a powerful DCD cooling system
Using the DCD cooling system, the skin remains continuously cool during the procedure. By minimizing pain and skin damage, treatment is possible for infants as well as adults.
Uses a 1064nm long pulse that has high absorption in blood vessels and can penetrate deeply.

GentleMax 1064nm long-pulse Nd:YAG, highly effective for treating large blood vessels and capillaries

GentleMax is a laser equipped with a 1064nm long-pulse mode. The 1064nm long-pulse Nd:YAG GentleMax laser constricts dilated blood vessels and improves elastic fibers in the dermis layer, thereby alleviating facial flushing and gradually making the skin clear and transparent. It is equipped with a self-contained gas cooling system (DCD) that protects the skin surface and reduces pain.

Selectively treat only abnormal blood vessels with Repay Mode! Silfirm X

SYLFIRM X is a device that utilizes RF to deliver high-frequency heat to desired areas within the skin, allowing for simultaneous treatment of both the shallow surface and the deep layers. Unlike conventional radiofrequency devices, its Repair Mode reacts only to abnormal blood vessels in the basement membrane and dermis. By selectively treating only the overgrowth of abnormal blood vessels in lesions, it enables not only the simple removal of melasma but also improvements in skin tone and texture, and offers excellent efficacy in treating facial flushing.

Removal of wavelengths above 950nm, Ellipse I2PL

After precisely calculating the energy amount and irradiation time to destroy blood vessels, light with a wavelength of 555nm to 950nm is irradiated onto the epithelium of the treatment site. This light is absorbed by hemoglobin in red blood cells and is immediately converted into thermal energy. Due to this converted thermal energy, the blood vessel walls suffer semi-permanent damage and are removed by the body's self-defense mechanisms; in this process, vascular lesions show an excellent treatment prognosis.
The Key to PHD Dermatology's Facial Flushing Treatment

Soothing sensitive skin in conjunction with a care program

For erythematous skin that has become sensitive to irritation, flushing can be reduced by avoiding harsh treatments and focusing on rapid soothing and hydration. LDM penetrates the skin with high-density ultrasound to effectively reduce protein-degrading enzymes that cause skin aging and inflammation, while promoting the production of fibroblasts. When LDM management is combined with laser treatment for facial flushing, it helps treat the condition by calming inflammation within the skin caused by the flushing.

Laser treatment for facial flushing requires delicate techniques, and the laser wavelength or energy must be applied differently depending on the individual's skin condition. At PHD Dermatology, we establish a 1:1 customized treatment plan for facial flushing based on symptoms, affected area, and skin type.
If you blindly apply a strong laser to target red blood vessels, it can actually irritate the skin and worsen the condition.
Treating with high laser intensity can eventually weaken the skin barrier and lead to secondary conditions; therefore, laser therapy that targets only blood vessels must be combined with treatments that protect the skin barrier. At PHD Dermatology, we strive to go a step beyond simple facial flushing treatment to minimize the likelihood of lesion recurrence.
