Questions about sensitive or red skin
Use these answers to prepare a more specific discussion.
Should sensitive skin be exfoliated more strongly?
Not automatically. Irritation can worsen when the barrier or underlying condition is not understood.
Can every redness concern be treated with laser?
No. The cause, vessel pattern, skin response and exact technology require assessment.
Compare the treatment target, not a promise.
