About Rosacea Treatment
Rosacea is a progressive condition most commonly experienced on the cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin. It has flare-ups and periods of remission, and although there is no known permanent cure, the symptoms can be contained and managed, with regular treatments.
The non-invasive technology uses multiple wavelengths of light to treat the dilated blood vessels on the affected areas of the face. Effectively, what causes the Rosacea in the first place, absorbs the light emitted onto it to destroy the particles that display facial redness.
A dedicated treatment plan recommended by our clinical therapists will ensure redness and inflammation are kept under control.
How IPL Rosacea Treatment Works
Unlike some laser systems that target a single vessel at a time, IPL covers larger treatment areas in a single pass, making it highly effective for the diffuse facial redness that characterises most rosacea presentations.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
- Your therapist cleanses and assesses your skin
- A cooling gel is applied to the treatment area
- The IPL handpiece is passed across the skin in controlled pulses
- Most clients describe the sensation as a mild warmth or a light elastic flick
- Total treatment time is 20 to 30 minutes
- You can return to your day immediately after (some short-lived redness is normal)
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Most clients see meaningful improvement within 4 to 6 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on:
- The severity and duration of your rosacea
- Your skin type and sensitivity
- Which rosacea subtype you have
- How consistently you manage your triggers between sessions
Because rosacea is a progressive, chronic condition rather than a one-time concern, we recommend a maintenance schedule after your initial course to keep results stable.
Benefits of IPL Rosacea Treatment
- Reduced overall facial redness
- Reduce skin flushing
- Reduce skin inflammation
- Minimised appearance of visible broken capillaries and spider veins
- Calmer, more even skin tone
- Minimal downtime (mild redness typically settles within 1 to 2 days)
- Non-invasive with no anaesthetic required
- Cumulative improvement across a course of treatments
- Treatable as part of an ongoing management plan for long-term control

Rosacea is a skin condition can be as minimal as a slight redness of the cheeks and nose or as severe as enlarged nasal oil glands and noticeable tissue build up around the nose (Rhinophyma). It is believed to be the inflammation and swelling of blood vessels. It is most common in middle-aged women. The symptoms most commonly include facial redness, small blood vessels, inflammation, and swelling.
To effectively treat and clear most active inflammatory Rosacea, we recommend 4-6 treatments every 2-4 weeks.
You may feel a short burst of heat as the light permeates the skin. Some people describe the sensation as a tingling or a slight pinching sensation.
The main side effects are mild, temporary swelling and redness. Crusting and bruising can also occur like a sunburn blistering.
The results of laser treatment for Rosacea are gradual. Over 4-6 treatments is when most clients see an overall reduction of approximately 75%. Although results vary depending on skin type and priority areas.
IPL works best on fair to medium skin tones. During your consultation, our therapists assess your skin type and rosacea presentation to confirm suitability and customise the treatment settings for you.
IPL uses broad-spectrum light across a wide treatment area, making it ideal for diffuse background redness covering larger sections of the face. Vascular laser uses a single precise wavelength, which can be better for targeting individual visible vessels. At Results Laser Clinic, our therapists will recommend the right approach based on your specific presentation.
Because rosacea is a chronic condition, new vessels can form over time, and flare-ups can still occur if triggers are not managed. This is why we build a long-term management strategy, not just a course of sessions. Most clients maintain excellent results with periodic maintenance treatments and consistent trigger awareness.
Yes. IPL is well tolerated even by sensitive skin when settings are appropriately calibrated. Always disclose any active skin conditions, medications, or recent sun exposure at your consultation so your therapist can adjust accordingly.
