Vascular lesions cover anything from a single broken capillary on the nose to widespread diffuse redness across the cheeks. They're caused by tiny blood vessels that have either become dilated (often from sun damage, aging, or rosacea) or physically damaged. Once a vessel is broken, it doesn't repair itself — but light-based treatments can collapse it so the body absorbs it.
ℹ️ Good to KnowIPL is the gold standard for diffuse redness and small surface vessels. Larger leg veins typically need a different vascular laser or sclerotherapy.
