FAQs

Can you cure my Rosacea?
Dr. Bentkover can usually significantly decrease the density. size. and number of superficial blood vessels in your face. However, he cannot stop the Rosacea. There is no cure for Rosacea. He often reduces the number of superficial blood vessels to the point that most are cleared and patients return for a touch up treatment every 18-24 months.

How long is the recovery?
Usually swelling and significant redness are gone in 24-36 hours. With a higher power treatment on most of the surface area of your face some degree of swelling and purpura (purple discoloration) may persist for 10 days or so.

How much of a Port Wine Stain can you remove?The amount of a Port Wine Stain that can be removed often depends on your age. As you age, so does your Port Wine Stain. Unfortunately, they often get thicker and become darker as they age. This makes them harder to clear. While the greatest success is with children and young adults, we have been very successful in significantly improving Port Wine Stains that have thickened and darkened over the years.
