Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that causes redness, flushing, visible capillaries and, in some cases, acne-like breakouts—especially on the cheeks, nose and forehead. At Renew Laser Clinic in Taree, we offer a non-invasive solution using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, a clinically proven treatment that targets the underlying vascular structures responsible for rosacea symptoms. This advanced technology uses controlled pulses of light to reduce inflammation, shrink visible blood vessels and improve overall skin tone and texture, delivering long-term relief without the need for harsh medications.
IPL works by penetrating the skin and selectively targeting the hemoglobin in dilated blood vessels, coagulating them so the body can reabsorb them naturally. At the same time, the heat stimulates collagen production, strengthening the skin and reducing sensitivity over time. This dual-action treatment is ideal for individuals experiencing persistent redness, broken capillaries, flushing and skin thickening, helping to restore a more even and calmer complexion. Sessions are relatively quick and involve minimal discomfort, making IPL an excellent option for those seeking results with little to no downtime. We proudly service clients in Taree, Forster, Pacific Palms, Gloucester and other surrounding areas.

While rosacea has no permanent cure, IPL therapy offers a reliable, long-term management option by addressing the vascular issues at the core of the condition. Over a series of treatments, patients often see a significant reduction in facial redness, fewer flare-ups and a smoother skin appearance. Unlike topical creams that may only offer temporary relief, IPL improves the structural integrity of the skin, helping reduce triggers and flare-ups over time. It’s especially useful for clients who have not responded well to traditional treatment options or who want a more targeted, aesthetic approach to managing rosacea.
The number of sessions needed varies based on the severity of symptoms and skin type, but most people benefit from a course of 3–6 treatments spaced several weeks apart. Each session builds upon the last, and improvement often continues even after the treatment course ends. IPL is suitable for a wide range of skin types, although it is most effective on lighter skin tones with visible redness or superficial vascular issues. After treatment, clients are advised to avoid sun exposure and follow a gentle skincare routine to support healing and prevent flare-ups.
IPL is widely regarded as one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for rosacea, offering a safe and evidence-based way to achieve clearer, calmer skin.
Most individuals require a series of 3 to 6 IPL sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart for optimal results. Some improvement is often noticeable after the first or second session, but full benefits typically appear after the complete treatment course. Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months may be recommended depending on the severity and frequency of rosacea flare-ups.
IPL treatments are well-tolerated by most clients, with minimal discomfort often described as a mild snapping or stinging sensation. After treatment, the skin may appear slightly red or flushed, similar to a mild sunburn, which typically subsides within a few hours to a day. There is minimal downtime, and most people return to their normal activities immediately.
Before treatment, avoid sun exposure, tanning beds and active skincare ingredients like retinol or glycolic acid for at least 48–72 hours. After treatment, it’s important to stay out of the sun, use a broad-spectrum SPF and avoid hot showers, strenuous exercise and harsh products for a few days. Following these guidelines helps reduce the risk of irritation and supports optimal healing and results.
