A condition as rosacea, red-faced blotchy skin complexion may be something you are struggling to cover up with makeup, but Papillon Bleu Medical Aesthetics Center has a more permanent solution for you. We target redness and rosacea treatment with the Cynosure ICON IPL MaxG Technology.
WHAT IS ROSACEA AND IT’S MAIN CAUSE?
The condition is a long-term skin condition that typically affects the face. It results in redness, pimples, swelling, and small and superficial dilated blood vessels. Often, the nose, cheeks, forehead, and chin are most involved.
Anything that causes your rosacea to flare is called a trigger; sunlight and hairspray are common skin redness triggers, but other common triggers include heat, stress, alcohol, and spicy foods.

Frequently Asked Questions
IPL Treatment FAQ
Individuals looking to reduce signs of aging, rosacea, redness, and hyperpigmentation without undergoing surgery can benefit from light-based laser therapy. Optimized light technology is beneficial for clearing vascular and pigment-related lesions. If you would like to learn more about how the treatment works, or schedule a consultation, please contact our clinic.
Depending on the concern you are treating the side effects of the treatment can vary. For pigment or pigmented lesions, typical after-effects of the treatment consist of, slight redness, immediate darkening of the pigment (this is what we want to see) followed by crusting or flaking of the pigment over the next 5-7 days. This is your body naturally removing the pigment and your pigment will be visibly lighter and or removed completely.
For vascular imperfections, blushing and rosacea treatments, you can expect redness, some mild swelling or puffiness, and darkening of the blood vessels, over the next 2-4 weeks your body will naturally re-absorb these treated vessels and they will disappear.
After a full consultation and patch test to assess your suitability for the treatment, you will be cleansed and given full blackout goggles to wear during treatment. Your specialist will apply some lux lotion to enhance the comfort of your treatment and your session will begin. During your treatment you will experience a flashing light although your eyes will be fully protected with metal blackout goggles, virtually pain-free you will also experience a sensation similar to the snap of an elastic band with most patients describing the after-sensation of the treatment as a mild sunburn sensation. Treatment times are generally 30mins.
Most patients enjoy healthier skin 2 weeks after their IPL treatment. At this point, the body naturally gets rid of damaged cells and clears broken capillaries away, revealing a healthier and smoother complexion. Facial rejuvenation with IPL is a non-surgical procedure that offers unparalleled results and faster healing times than traditional methods.
