Couperose on the face appears as redness and a sensation of heat. In couperose, the small blood vessels in the facial skin become dilated. These dilated vessels are visible as redness, initially on the cheeks, nose, and around the sides of the nose. Over time, the redness may spread across the entire face and even to the neck area. In addition to redness, a typical symptom of couperose is a feeling of warmth or flushing. Couperose can be treated with laser therapy.

Couperose refers to vascular changes. In couperose, the small blood vessels in the facial skin are dilated. These dilated vessels appear as redness, initially on the cheeks, nose, and around the sides of the nose. Over time, the redness may spread across the entire face and even to the neck area. In addition to redness, a typical symptom of couperose is a sensation of heat or flushing. In some cases, couperose and dilated blood vessels can be managed through dietary habits. However, the tendency toward redness is often genetic, and it cannot be eliminated simply by changing one’s lifestyle.
There are many home remedies for treating couperose, but home care has its limitations. Vascular changes can be effectively and safely removed with laser treatment.
Couperose usually causes a cosmetic concern. Facial couperose is often treated with laser therapy (microsclerotherapy). The aim of the treatment is to break down or block the small blood vessels that cause cosmetic issues. In laser treatment, superficial capillaries are treated with laser light, which coagulates the blood within the vessel. Once the blood flow in the capillary is stopped, the vessel gradually disappears from view. After the procedure, circulation shifts to vessels located deeper than the capillaries.
Laser treatment is highly suitable for, among other things, small vascular changes on the face and couperose. Please come to the treatment without makeup, jewelry, or piercings.
In most cases, vascular patterns begin to fade immediately after laser treatment, but the final results are typically seen within three months. Complete resolution cannot always be expected even with laser treatment. However, nine out of ten patients have been very satisfied with the results.
After laser treatment, the skin may be slightly red or bruised. If the treated vascular changes are located on the lower legs, compression stockings may be used as aftercare for some time. The results of the treatment are usually visible within 2–6 weeks, although the final outcome may only be seen after several months.
As a rare complication after treatment, telangiectatic matting may occur, meaning that small new blood vessels appear in the treated area. However, this usually resolves on its own within a year at the latest.
