Vascular Laser Treatment in Brisbane
DermaV Laser for Rosacea, Redness & Visible Blood Vessels
Vascular laser therapy is a medical treatment used in dermatology to target visible blood vessels, facial redness and selected vascular skin conditions. It may be considered for appropriate patients following specialist assessment.
At Your Dermatologist, vascular laser treatment in Brisbane is delivered by a specialist dermatologist or qualified registered nurse, using a medical-grade vascular laser system, including the DermaV platform, as part of an evidence-based, individualised treatment plan.
What is vascular laser treatment?
Vascular lasers emit specific wavelengths of light that are absorbed by haemoglobin within blood vessels. This allows selective targeting of dilated or abnormal vessels while minimising damage to surrounding skin.
Vascular laser therapy is an established dermatological treatment when delivered under appropriate medical supervision with accurate diagnosis and dosing protocols.
What is the DermaV laser?
DermaV is a medical-grade vascular laser platform designed to treat superficial vascular lesions. It allows controlled, adjustable energy delivery tailored to:
Skin type
Vessel size and depth
Location on the body
Individual sensitivity
Treatment outcomes depend on correct diagnosis, appropriate energy selection and specialist oversight not the device alone.
Rosacea Laser Treatment in Brisbane
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that may cause:
Persistent facial redness
Flushing
Visible facial blood vessels (telangiectasia)
Background erythema
While medical treatments help control inflammation and flare frequency, vascular laser therapy may be considered for persistent redness or visible vessels that remain despite appropriate medical management.
How vascular laser may help rosacea
For selected patients, vascular laser treatment may:
Reduce visible superficial blood vessels
Improve background facial redness
Support overall rosacea management
Laser therapy does not cure rosacea, and maintenance treatment may be required over time. Suitability depends on the subtype of rosacea, skin type and overall disease control.
Other conditions that may be considered for vascular laser
Vascular laser treatment in Brisbane may also be considered for:
Facial telangiectasia
Spider veins in selected areas
Red scars or post-inflammatory erythema
Certain vascular birthmarks
Assessment determines whether laser therapy is appropriate or whether alternative treatment is recommended.
Why specialist dermatologist assessment matters
Redness and vascular lesions can have multiple causes, including rosacea, sun damage, inflammation or pigmentary conditions.
Specialist assessment helps to:
Confirm the correct diagnosis
Distinguish vascular redness from pigmentation
Exclude underlying inflammatory disease
Determine whether vascular laser treatment is suitable
At Your Dermatologist, laser treatment is recommended only when the expected benefit outweighs potential risks.
What does vascular laser treatment involve?
Treatment typically includes:
Skin preparation
Delivery of short pulses of laser energy
Protective eye shielding
Post-treatment care instructions
Treatments are performed in clinic and do not require general anaesthesia.
What results can be expected?
Vascular laser treatment aims to:
Reduce visible blood vessels
Improve persistent redness
Improve overall skin appearance
Results vary between individuals. Multiple sessions are often required, and complete clearance cannot be guaranteed. Some conditions, particularly rosacea, may require ongoing maintenance.
Possible side effects
Temporary effects may include:
Redness
Mild swelling
Bruising in some cases
Temporary darkening of treated vessels
Your dermatologist will discuss risks, aftercare and realistic expectations prior to treatment.
