TREATMENT INFORMATION
HOW DO LASER TREATMENTS FOR ROSACEA WORK?
Aerolase is an FDA-approved laser technology used by licensed physicians in breakthrough ways of treating the signs of rosacea, persistent redness, and those visible blood vessels. The best part? The laser treatment results are noticeable with a single 20-minute session performed in the comfort of our San Antonio office. With no downtime needed, most of our patients head back to work or continue with their day after treatment.
BENEFITS OF LASER TREATMENTS FOR ROSACEA, REDNESS & VEINS
The Aerolase has advanced 650-microsecond laser energy that painlessly suppresses inflammation. The wavelengths of laser light target and destroy blood vessels without harming surrounding tissue. Laser treatment is effective with minimal risk of adverse outcomes, especially compared to traditional treatment options for the visible symptoms of rosacea.
TREATMENT FAQS
How Many Laser Treatments Do You Need For Rosacea?

​
Do Laser Treatments With The Aerolase Laser Hurt?
No! One of the most exciting benefits of Aerolase’s advanced technology is that it provides painless, effective results. In contrast to other laser treatments, Aerolase patients experience only a mild warming sensation during sessions.
​
What Other Conditions Can Aerolase Treat?
Aerolase laser treatments are effective against acne, unwanted hair growth, loose, aging skin, melasma and hyperpigmentation, psoriasis plaques, nail fungus, ingrown hairs, and more.
