Depends on the treatment
Rhinophyma is a skin condition that affects the nose, causing it to become red, enlarged, and bulbous. The skin grows thicker, altering the nose’s shape and size. Laser treatments can help smooth the skin’s texture, reduce redness, and minimize the appearance of visible blood vessels.
Lasers We Offer to Treat rhinophyma
At Laser & Skin Surgery Center of New York, we use the following lasers to treat rhinophyma:
Erbium YAG Laser
The Erbium YAG laser vaporizes water in the skin cells to remove layers of skin at a time while creating micro-channels. This increases collagen production and healthy cell generation, resulting in nasal skin that is smoother and less bulbous.
Fraxel Re:pair®
Fraxel Re:pair is a fractional CO2 laser resurfacing procedure that works on a cellular level, breaking a treatment area into zones to penetrate the dermis and resurface the uppermost skin layers. By removing excess layers of thickened skin and encouraging cell renewal, Fraxel Re:pair can help reduce the cosmetic signs of rhinophyma and improve the overall nasal shape.
CO2RE®
The CORE2 laser treats rhinophyma by precisely targeting and vaporizing excess nose tissue, promoting skin resurfacing, reducing thickness, and reshaping the nose to improve its appearance.
RF Ablation
Radiofrequency (RF) uses RF energy to precisely target and heat excess tissue on the nose, leading to controlled tissue ablation. This process promotes skin tightening, reduces thickness, and helps reshape the nose for an improved appearance.
