This treatment is called intense pulsed light (IPL) laser therapy.

Treating Red Facial Disorder SD
In order to eliminate the painful and unsightly symptoms of rosacea, the dermatologists at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology use the Rosacea IPL treatment device to direct broad spectrum light rays to specific layers of skin tissue to target specific problems, such as pigmentation, broken blood vessels, and damaged tissue. The treatment triggers the skin’s natural healing process to replenish the targeted skin cells and achieve healthy, smooth skin that is free of unsightly redness.
An IPL session typically takes only about half an hour to 45 minutes and requires no recovery time, unlike typical cosmetic laser treatments. Following a session, patients can return to their daily life with only a slight redness or puffiness to the skin that typically disappears in a matter of hours. Even better, after a series of sessions, patients can enjoy the full results for a long time, especially if they take good care of their skin.
