Hello.
I am Director Information Hwang of Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
Have you ever felt that your face remains flushed and that the redness on your cheeks does not subside easily, even with just a change in season or a slight change in temperature?
"My cheeks turn red even when I don't eat spicy food, and even if I cover it with foundation, the redness shows through again after a while."
This is a category of consultation we receive frequently.
Facial flushing is a state where redness is visible on the surface, but the actual cause is often dilated blood vessels located under the skin.
It is a category where superficial flushing, where thin capillaries are located near the surface of the face, and deep flushing, where thick blood vessels are located in the deep layers of the dermis, are often observed together.
Therefore, it is a line where it is difficult to address the root cause with surface soothing care alone.
The approach for Gangnam facial flushing is to treat these two layers of dilated blood vessels together.
Today, I will explain why facial flushing recurs and how the Derma V laser works on both surface and deep flushing.
For Gangnam facial flushing improvement
👉 The Derma V for Gangnam facial flushing is a laser procedure that uses the 532nm and 1064nm wavelengths of the Derma V laser developed by Cutera in the U.S. to alleviate flushing by treating both thin capillaries near the skin surface and thick blood vessels in the deep layers of the dermis.Derma V is a complex laser category that combines two wavelengths in one device.
The 532nm wavelength has the characteristic of being well-absorbed by surface pigments or thin blood vessels, and the 1064nm wavelength has the characteristic of being able to reach thick blood vessels in the deep layers, making it a line that can approach blood vessels in different layers with each wavelength.
The principle of action is that hemoglobin in the dilated blood vessels selectively absorbs specific wavelength laser energy.
The blood vessels that absorb the energy are contracted by a thermal coagulation reaction, and it is known as a category that proceeds in a direction that cleans up only the stretched blood vessels while minimizing the impact on surrounding normal tissue.
Why facial flushing recurs
👉 Facial flushing is a category that recurs as four factors—dilated surface capillaries, deep thick blood vessels, autonomic nervous system response sensitivity, and underlying skin conditions—intertwine with each other.
Dilated surface capillaries
These are thin blood vessels located near the skin surface that are more dilated than normal.
It is a category known as a line where redness is frequently revealed on the surface as blood vessels open easily even with small temperature changes or stimulation.
Deep thick blood vessels
These are thick blood vessels located in the deep layers of the dermis that are in a dilated state.
They are not easily visible on the surface, but they are the cause of the overall red tone of the face and are difficult to approach with surface soothing care.
Autonomic nervous system response sensitivity
The autonomic nervous system that controls blood vessels tends to be sensitive.
It is a category where flushing recurs as blood vessels expand rapidly due to stimuli such as stress, temperature changes, spicy food, and alcohol.
Underlying skin conditions
Skin conditions such as rosacea or chronic acne can also be the background for flushing.
In this case, if you only treat surface flushing without managing the underlying condition, the possibility of recurrence is high, so it is known as a line that requires diagnosis of the underlying condition first.
How the Derma V laser works on flushing
👉 The Derma V laser is a procedure that acts on both superficial and deep flushing through four methods: 532nm wavelength surface blood vessel approach, 1064nm wavelength deep blood vessel approach, hemoglobin selective absorption principle, and dual wavelength combination.
532nm — Surface thin blood vessel approach
The 532nm wavelength is a wavelength with a very high absorption rate for hemoglobin.
Because it is a characteristic that works well on thin capillaries mainly located near the surface, it is a category used for approaching fine blood vessels that appear prominent on the face surface.
1064nm — Deep thick blood vessel approach
The 1064nm wavelength has a long wavelength, so it has the characteristic of being able to penetrate deep into the skin.
Because it is a method where energy reaches thick blood vessels located in the deep layers of the dermis, it is a line that can treat deep flushing that is difficult to approach with surface care.
Hemoglobin selective absorption principle
Both wavelengths are based on the principle of being selectively absorbed by hemoglobin in dilated blood vessels.
It is known as a category that ensures stability because energy is concentrated only on blood vessels and the impact on surrounding normal tissue is minimized.
Dual wavelength combination
Since superficial and deep blood vessels are areas that each require different wavelengths, access is limited with a single-wavelength laser.
Derma V is a line that can combine two wavelengths in one device, so it has the characteristic of being able to select or use wavelengths together according to the skin condition.
Flushing types suitable for Gangnam facial flushing procedure
👉 Gangnam facial flushing is a procedure frequently considered for types such as redness around the cheeks and nose, red marks after acne, capillary dilation, and early-stage rosacea flushing.
Redness around the cheeks and nose
This is a type where the cheeks and nose area frequently turn red due to seasonal changes or temperature stimulation.
Since thin capillaries are often located on the surface, it is a category where 532nm wavelength approach is considered.
Red marks after acne (PIE)
These are red marks left by past acne.
It is a state where dilated capillaries remain after an inflammatory reaction, and although they tend to fade over time, laser approach is considered if they do not clear up.
Capillary dilation
This is a type where spider veins are prominent on the face.
Since thin blood vessels are clearly visible near the surface, it is a category where wavelength selection and energy control affect the results.
Early-stage rosacea flushing
This is persistent facial redness in the early stages of rosacea.
It is a line that requires diagnosis and management of the underlying condition first, and laser approach for dilated blood vessels is considered within parallel management.
Gangnam facial flushing procedure sessions and progress method
👉 The Gangnam facial flushing procedure is usually conducted in a series of 3 to 5 sessions depending on the individual's degree and type of flushing, and stable results are reported when repeated procedures are performed at regular intervals.
It is not a category where flushing disappears completely with one procedure, but a flow where dilated blood vessels are gradually cleared over several sessions.
It is usually conducted by checking the flushing state while repeating at 3 to 4-week intervals and adjusting the next session.
We will examine the session configuration suitable for your flushing type and condition together during the preliminary consultation.
Those for whom the facial flushing procedure is suitable
Those whose cheeks frequently turn red due to seasonal changes or temperature stimulation
Those who are bothered by cheek redness that is not well covered even with foundation
Those who are bothered by capillary dilation where spider veins are prominent on the face
Those who want to clear up red marks that remain for a long time after acne
Those who want to fundamentally treat flushing that does not improve with surface soothing care
Gangnam facial flushing side effects and things to know in advance
👉 Although the Gangnam facial flushing procedure is a Derma V line with long-standing clinical data, it is good to understand in advance that energy settings and session plans have a significant impact on result stability depending on individual skin characteristics and flushing types.
Immediately after the procedure, light redness, slight heat, and temporary numbness may appear on the face.
It is generally reported as a flow that naturally clears up within a few hours to a day.
The Derma V procedure is a line where precise energy settings have a significant impact on result stability.
Even if the same equipment is used, energy control varies depending on the flushing type, skin thickness, and underlying condition, so it is known that the judgment of experienced medical staff has a significant impact on the results.
If UV management is insufficient after the procedure, there is a possibility of pigmentation, so UV protection is an important line for recovery stability.
Although flushing is caused by dilated blood vessels, if autonomic nervous system sensitivity or underlying conditions such as rosacea are present, the possibility of recurrence remains, so it is usually conducted in a direction where stimulation management and underlying condition management are performed in parallel even after the procedure.
If you fall under the following, the procedure may be restricted or prior confirmation may be required, so please inform us during the consultation.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding
If you have active herpes, infection, or severe inflammation at the procedure site
If you are taking photosensitive medication or have been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease
If you have a history of recent strong peeling, laser, or resurfacing procedures
If you have a keloid constitution or a tendency to leave scars easily
If you have recently tanned or the procedure site is heavily tanned
⚠️ Precautions before and after facial flushing procedure
👉 The facial flushing procedure is a procedure where recovery speed and result stability vary depending on pre-procedure UV/stimulation management and post-procedure soothing/moisturizing management.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. When can I see the results of the Gangnam facial flushing procedure?
Changes where redness gradually fades usually begin 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure.
It is a category reported as a flow where flushing is gradually cleared over 3 to 5 sessions rather than expecting complete improvement with one procedure.
Q. How many sessions of the Gangnam facial flushing procedure should I receive?
It varies depending on the flushing type and degree.
Superficial flushing can be cleared in a 3-session series, and if deep flushing or thick blood vessels are present, a series of 5 or more sessions is considered, so we will organize the sessions suitable for your condition together during the preliminary consultation.
Q. Is makeup possible after the Gangnam facial flushing procedure?
Light makeup is usually possible from the day after the procedure.
It is a category where it is good for recovery stability to avoid stimulation on the day of the procedure and manage with mild products for a few days after the procedure.
Q. How much pain is there in the Gangnam facial flushing procedure?
Since it is conducted after applying numbing cream before the procedure, strong pain is not significant.
You may feel a brief stinging and heat during the procedure, and numbness after the procedure is a line that clears up within a short time.
Q. Can facial flushing recur after the procedure?
Since flushing is caused by dilated blood vessels, the blood vessel areas cleared by the procedure do not usually become a problem again, but if underlying conditions such as autonomic nervous system sensitivity or rosacea remain, there is a possibility that other blood vessels may newly dilate.
A direction where stimulation management and underlying condition management are performed in parallel with the procedure tends to lower the possibility of recurrence.
Q. Can the Gangnam facial flushing procedure be performed in parallel with other procedures?
It is a line where parallel progress is possible.
Since there are combinations considered together with acne management, skin boosters, and other wavelength lasers, we will organize a plan suitable for your skin condition together during the preliminary consultation.
Q. Can men also receive the Gangnam facial flushing procedure?
It is a category that can be received regardless of gender.
Since male flushing is also often caused by surface/deep blood vessel dilation, it is a line where Derma V approach is considered in the same way.
Facial flushing is revealed as surface redness, but the actual cause is a skin condition where dilated blood vessels and autonomic nervous system responses are involved together.
In that it is difficult to approach the root cause with surface soothing care, an approach that treats the dilated blood vessels themselves is necessary.
Gangnam facial flushing is a laser procedure that approaches the cause of flushing itself by treating surface thin blood vessels and deep thick blood vessels together using the two wavelengths of the Derma V laser from Cutera in the U.S.
In addition to facial flushing, the Gangnam branch also operates various laser lines for pigment, melasma, acne scars, and pore management.
It is a category where you can consider combinations according to the area and purpose, from melasma and pigment management lines, Potenza for acne scars and skin texture management, to lifting lines considered when elasticity and lifting approaches are needed together.
We will check the direction suitable for your flushing type and skin condition directly during the consultation.
If you are bothered by recurring cheek redness and burning sensations, please feel free to visit Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
Even before deciding on the procedure, you can examine the current state of your skin together through a preliminary consultation.

Q. 강남 안면홍조 시술 통증은 어느 정도인가요?
시술 전 마취 크림 도포 후 진행되는 방식이라 강한 통증은 크지 않은 편이에요.
시술 중 잠깐의 따끔함과 열감이 느껴질 수 있고
시술 후 얼얼함은 짧은 시간 안에 정리되는 라인입니다.
Q. 안면홍조가 시술 후에 다시 재발할 수 있나요?
홍조는 확장된 혈관이 원인이라 시술로 정리된
혈관 부위는 다시 문제되지 않는 편이지만,
자율신경 민감도나 주사 같은 원인 질환이 남아 있으면
다른 혈관이 새로 확장될 가능성이 남아 있는 카테고리예요.
시술과 함께 자극 관리·원인 질환 관리가
병행되는 방향이 재발 가능성을 낮추는 편입니다.
Q. 강남 안면홍조 시술과 다른 시술을 병행할 수 있나요?
