    Couperose: Causes, Symptoms, and Solutions

    Couperose, a form of rosacea, is a skin condition characterized by the presence of small, dilated blood vessels (telangiectasia) visible on the surface of the skin. Redness is primarily localized on the cheeks, cheekbones, and around the nose. In addition to redness, you may experience unusual warmth and increased skin sensitivity.

    Often hereditary, couperose can be triggered by various factors such as temperature fluctuations, lifestyle (alcohol and smoking), UV exposure, certain medications, and the use of cosmetics and skin irritants. This condition is more common in women and individuals with sensitive and fair skin.

    Treatment Options for Couperose and Rosacea: At Epiderma, the treatment of couperose is performed through sclerotherapy or photorejuvenation. Sclerotherapy involves small injections of sclerosing agents to reduce the appearance of dilated blood vessels. Photorejuvenation uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to address specific skin conditions.

    What is the difference between rosacea and couperose?

    Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by redness and inflammation of the skin, often including papules and pustules. It is a broader condition with a range of symptoms. Couperose is a specific form of rosacea, primarily marked by dilated blood vessels visible on the skin’s surface, without the papules and pustules typical of rosacea.

    How does a couperose treatment work?

    1- Sclerotherapy Treatment

    During your initial consultation, you will be seen by a doctor trained in phlebology to assess your health. They will conduct a thorough examination of the telangiectasias on your face to determine the most suitable treatment for your needs.

    The treatment of couperose through sclerotherapy is administered by a doctor or nurse. It involves injecting a sclerosing agent into the vein to be treated, with the dosage and strength determined beforehand. This treatment is quick, non-invasive, and requires no recovery time. To optimize results, follow-up sessions may be recommended based on your needs, and the necessity for additional treatments will be assessed.

    2- Photorejuvenation Treatment

    During your first visit for couperose treatment, you will meet with a medical aesthetic technician who will discuss your concerns and evaluate your health. During each session, an intense pulsed light (IPL) device is specifically adjusted to target the dilated blood vessels responsible for redness. After the treatment, redness and a temporary intensification of spots may occur before the skin dries and exfoliates naturally. It is important to apply sunscreen to protect the skin.
