Redness Naperville, IL

Redness is a condition everyone will face at some point in their lives—for many, redness is acute and will fade on its own, but for others, redness is a lifelong discomfort. Fortunately, SkinPerfected can help you combat chronic redness at its root. 

Symptoms

• Sensitivity to skincare and environments
• Visible blood vessels 
• Itchy rash or burning sensations accompanying redness
• Dry, rough, or irritated skin texture
• Swollen skin cells or inflammation in the affected area
• Sensitive skin, discomfort or pain associated with redness

Causes

Redness of the skin, medically known as erythema, can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

Inflammatory Responses

When the immune system reacts to injury, infection, or an autoimmune disease, it may trigger redness, swollen skin, and skin thickening. Atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and contact dermatitis are common examples.

Allergic Reactions

Allergic Contact Dermatitis and Irritant Dermatitis are conditions that are caused by products we apply to the skin that one is allergic to or has a sensitivity to.

Skin Infections

Bacterial, viral infections, or fungal overgrowths can lead to skin rashes, skin irritation, and in some cases, severe complications. When bacteria infect deep layers of the skin, conditions like cellulitis may develop.

Sun Exposure and Environmental Factors

Sun damage from overexposure to UV rays often results in temporary redness, stinging, burning sensations, blistering, peeling, or even scarring. Exposure to harsh skincare products, detergents, or pollutants can also cause inflamed skin.

Chronic Skin Conditions

Conditions such as rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, and eczema are common skin conditions that often cause persistent redness, scaly patches, or dandruff. These issues may worsen with triggers such as spicy foods, alcohol, stress, or weather changes.

 Vascular Causes

When small blood vessels near the skin’s surface dilate or become damaged, they may create visible redness or markings. Spider veins, telangiectasia, and vasculitis are examples of vascular issues that affect skin color.

Treatments

At SkinPerfected, we offer a range of advanced, non-invasive treatments to reduce redness, strengthen the skin barrier, and restore a calm, even-toned complexion. We will recommend the most suitable approach based on the cause of your redness, your skin type, and your personal goals:

BBL (BroadBand Light Therapy)

BBL is a light-based treatment that targets redness by reducing visible blood vessels, calming inflammation, and promoting collagen production. It’s gentle, requires minimal downtime, and offers gradual improvement with a series of sessions. Candidates include individuals with persistent facial redness, uneven skin tone, or visible vascular lesions.

Medical Grade Skincare

Medical grade skincare includes clinically tested products formulated with active ingredients to calm inflammation, support the skin barrier, and reduce redness. A customized skincare routine can help manage chronic skin conditions like rosacea or eczema and prevent future flare-ups. Ideal for individuals with sensitive, redness-prone skin who want a non-procedural solution.

RF Microneedling

Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate deep collagen remodeling. While typically used for skin tightening and texture improvement, it also helps improve skin tone and reduce inflammation over time. RF microneedling is safe for most skin types with little downtime.

Regenerative Microneedling with Ariessence PDGF

Level up your SkinPen Microneedling results with our Regenerative Microneedling treatment featuring Ariessence PDGF, a pharmaceutical-grade growth factor formula with just four pure ingredients. With up to 300,000 times more growth factor than PRP or PRF, Ariessence PDGF delivers powerful, consistent results backed by research and used in four FDA-approved medical applications.

During your SkinPen treatment, this advanced formula penetrates deeply into the microchannels created in the skin, accelerating cellular repair, stimulating collagen production, and enhancing skin tone, texture, and radiance. While tanned skin is okay, be sure to avoid burned or compromised skin before treatment, and limit unprotected sun exposure for one week afterward. Whether you’re targeting acne scars, fine lines, or dull skin, Regenerative Microneedling with Ariessence PDGF has helped over 5 million patients in the last 15 years achieve visibly smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin with minimal downtime. 

Moxi Laser

Moxi is a gentle, non-ablative fractional laser treatment designed to refresh and even out skin tone with minimal downtime. It can help reduce redness from sun damage, early signs of rosacea, and pigmented vascular lesions while improving skin texture and clarity. Moxi is suitable for all skin tones and can be used preventatively or as part of an ongoing skin maintenance plan.
