What are the treatments for broken capillaries in Nice?
Cheeks that flush at the slightest change in temperature, visible blood vessels on the sides of the nose, diffuse redness that settles in: broken capillaries mainly affect thin, fair skin, and they do not fade on their own — they spread. Treating them early is simpler and gives longer-lasting results.
Our protocol relies on IPL photorejuvenation: the pulsed light is absorbed by the haemoglobin in the small dilated vessels, which heat up and are gradually reabsorbed. Alongside this, LED photobiomodulation soothes inflammation and strengthens the skin, while gentle treatments (OxyPure, facial ultrasound) restore the barrier function of reactive skin.
Important: rosacea is a condition that is first and foremost a matter for a dermatologist — our aesthetic treatments work as a complement, on redness and skin comfort, never as a substitute for medical follow-up. Your exact situation, the triggers to avoid and the schedule: everything is set out at the free skin assessment (prices per session).
The aesthetic assessment comes first
The assessment distinguishes broken capillaries (small visible vessels) from rosacea (diffuse redness with flare-ups) — and first checks that your rosacea is not in an inflammatory flare-up, in which case you should see a doctor before coming to us. We also note your triggers: heat, alcohol, sun, stress.
How we work
Day 1 — vascular assessment + photos in cold light
Mapping of the red areas and vessels, identification of your triggers, quote. If your skin is having a flare-up, we postpone: we never flash inflamed skin.
Months 1 to 2 — intense pulsed light, 2 to 3 sessions 3–4 weeks apart
IPL in vascular mode targets haemoglobin: the small dilated vessels absorb the flash and are reabsorbed. This is the core treatment for broken capillaries.
Between flashes — soothing: LED and gentle ultrasound
Anti-redness LED photobiomodulation and 3 MHz facial ultrasound calm reactivity and strengthen the skin barrier — skin with broken capillaries is, above all, skin that struggles to defend itself.
Alongside — OxyPure oxygenation
On sensitive, rosacea-prone skin, the OxyPure treatment cleanses and oxygenates without rubbing or heating, where a conventional scrub would make everything worse.
Month 3 — check-up and anti-recurrence plan
Side-by-side photos, then a maintenance plan: broken capillaries are a skin tendency, so one IPL top-up session a year and avoiding your triggers keep the result.
Who it's for, and when to avoid it
Never IPL on tanned skin, during an inflammatory flare-up or while on photosensitising treatment; heat and scrubs are to be avoided for 48 hours after a flash.
This is an aesthetic comfort treatment: it does not constitute a medical procedure, a diagnosis or a therapeutic treatment.
Possibilities and limits
What we do not promise.
We treat visible vessels and calm reactivity; rosacea is a chronic dermatological condition: severe flare-ups, papules and eye involvement are a matter for a doctor, to whom we will refer you without hesitation.

Frequently asked questions
Does IPL make the vessels disappear permanently?
Treated vessels are reabsorbed for good, but broken capillaries are a predisposition: new vessels may appear over time. One maintenance session a year is generally enough to keep the result.
Is the treatment painful on reactive skin?
Each flash causes a very brief, warm prickling sensation. The intensity is adapted to your sensitivity, and the LED at the end of the session soothes immediately.
What is the difference between broken capillaries and rosacea?
Broken capillaries refer to visible vessels and redness; rosacea is a broader condition (flare-ups, papules) that falls under a dermatologist's care. We treat the aesthetic side, alongside any medical follow-up.
What should I avoid during the course?
Strong sun exposure, harsh scrubs and your personal triggers (heat, alcohol, spicy food, depending on the case). A simple guide is given to you at the assessment.
