Reduce redness. Calm flare-ups. Restore an even, confident complexion.
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that affects millions, causing persistent redness, visible blood vessels, flushing, and sometimes bumps or pimples on the face. It can be frustrating, unpredictable, and emotionally draining.
At Skinovatio Ohio, we understand the impact rosacea has on your confidence and quality of life. That’s why we offer advanced, gentle laser and light therapy using the Cartessa Prisma® —an innovative, multi-technology platform designed to calm redness, reduce visible vessels, and restore an even skin tone without downtime or discomfort.
This treatment is FDA-cleared to address vascular lesions, rosacea, and broken blood vessels, offering a safe, effective alternative to ongoing topical treatments.
Rosacea is a common, chronic inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects the central face. It typically presents with:
| Symptom | Description |
|---|---|
| Persistent Redness | Ongoing redness in the central face (cheeks, nose, chin, forehead) |
| Flushing | Sudden, transient redness that comes and goes |
| Visible Blood Vessels | Small, visible broken capillaries (telangiectasias) |
| Bumps & Pimples | Red, pus-filled bumps that resemble acne |
| Sensitivity | Stinging, burning, or tightness; sensitivity to skincare products |
| Dryness & Texture | Rough, scaly, or dry patches on the skin |
Rosacea can be triggered by sun exposure, heat, stress, spicy foods, alcohol, and certain skincare products. While there is no cure, effective treatments can dramatically reduce symptoms and prevent flare-ups.
The Cartessa Prisma® is a revolutionary, multi-technology platform that combines three proven treatments into one premium device:
| Technology | Function | How It Helps Rosacea |
|---|---|---|
| IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) | Treats surface redness, visible vessels, and pigmentation | Targets hemoglobin in dilated blood vessels, reducing redness and broken capillaries |
| Radio Frequency (RF) | Delivers energy to the dermis to stimulate collagen | Strengthens skin and improves overall texture and resilience |
| Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) | Stimulates facial muscles to improve tone | Enhances skin support structure for a firmer, healthier complexion |
Only Prisma integrates the best in IPL advancements with RF and EMS for a synergistic, multi-layer approach to treating the primary signs of facial aging and vascular concerns. While traditional IPL (often called a “photo facial”) focuses primarily on surface discoloration, Prisma goes beyond by addressing deeper structural concerns—making it especially effective for rosacea-prone skin.
IPL is the gold standard in treating redness and vascularity. Prisma was designed to integrate the best of IPL technologies into two specialized handpieces:
| Handpiece | Function |
|---|---|
| Verde Handpiece | Features adjustable range and fluence—the closest you can get to a vascular laser without being a laser—expertly treating reds, browns, and difficult vascular lesions |
| Sol Handpiece | Uses in-motion technology to treat larger areas with uniform coverage, preventing lines of demarcation |
Prisma also features optimized cooling levels that achieve results without the discomfort experienced with other IPL devices. No other IPL device allows providers to dial in the cooling to optimize patient comfort without sacrificing efficacy.
Beyond rosacea, Prisma addresses a full spectrum of skin concerns:
| Condition | How Prisma Helps |
|---|---|
| Rosacea & Flushing | Reduces persistent redness and calms flare-ups |
| Broken Capillaries | Targets and reduces visible blood vessels |
| Pigmentation & Sun Damage | Fades brown spots, sun damage, and uneven tone |
| Loss of Elasticity | Stimulates collagen for firmer, smoother skin |
| Fine Lines | Improves skin texture and reduces fine lines |
| Loss of Muscle Tone | Tones facial muscles for a more lifted appearance |
Our medical team evaluates your skin type, rosacea severity, triggers, and goals. We discuss your concerns, explain how Prisma works, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
We cleanse the treatment area and apply cooling gel. The Prisma handpiece is positioned over the treatment area, and gentle pulses of light and energy are delivered to target redness, vessels, and underlying skin concerns. The integrated cooling system ensures your comfort throughout.
