Redness
At Telma Medical Skin Clinic, we understand that persistent skin redness can affect both your skin’s appearance and confidence. Whether you experience facial flushing, visible capillaries, rosacea or general skin sensitivity, our personalised treatment approach is designed to reduce the appearance of redness and improve overall skin tone.
What causes skin redness?
Skin redness occurs when blood vessels near the skin’s surface dilate, increasing blood flow to the affected area, or when inflammation and irritation affect the skin. Redness may be temporary or persistent, depending on the underlying cause.
It commonly appears across the cheeks, nose, chin and forehead, although it can affect other areas of the body. Identifying the cause of redness is an important first step in determining the most appropriate treatment.
Common causes of skin redness
Skin redness can develop due to several factors, including rosacea, visible capillaries, environmental triggers and skin sensitivity. Hormonal changes, heat, sun exposure, stress and certain skincare products may also contribute to flushing or irritation.
Understanding the underlying cause of your redness helps us recommend a personalised treatment approach suited to your skin.

The benefits of professional redness treatments
A personalised treatment plan may help to:
Reduce the appearance of persistent facial redness.
Improve the appearance of visible capillaries and broken blood vessels.
Minimise the appearance of uneven skin tone.
Support skin comfort and barrier function.
Manage the visible symptoms of rosacea where appropriate.
Develop a skincare routine suited to sensitive or redness-prone skin.
Results vary depending on the cause and severity of redness, the treatment selected and individual skin responses. Some conditions, including rosacea, may require ongoing management to maintain improvements.
Assessment comes first.
Book a consultation- Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and no treatment is recommended before you have been seen.
- Suitability depends on your skin, your history and your medications, which is what the consultation is for.
- If a concern is changing, painful, bleeding or new, have it assessed by a doctor rather than treated cosmetically.
