Pulse Dye Treatment of IPL Resistant Acne Rosacea using the NLite 585nm Pulse Dye Laser

Dr Peter Crouch at The Burghley Park Clinic, December 2005

This video shows the NLite 585nm pulse dye laser used to treat Intense Pulsed Light treatment resistant Acne Rosacea (rosacea that does not respond well to Intense Pulsed Light treatment). The laser used in this way causes bruising of the blood vessels and this develops as discreet dark purple circular bruises as the treatment continues.
