Post-inflammatory Erythema Treatment

Post-inflammatory erythema (PIE) refers to the red or pink marks that remain on the skin after an injury, acne, or other inflammatory conditions.

Understanding Post-inflammatory Erythema

• Different from PIH: Unlike post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) which results in dark spots, PIE occurs due to increased blood flow and vascular changes during healing.
• Common after acne: It is common after acne lesions or other skin irritations, especially in individuals with lighter skin tones.
• Temporary but persistent: Although not as permanent as hyperpigmentation, PIE can persist for weeks to months, affecting the overall appearance and texture of the skin.

Our Post-Inflammatory Erythema Treatment Approach

• Treating any underlying acne: We start by focusing on controlling any active acne while reducing skin irritation, preventing further PIE development.
• Targeted Skincare: Our clinic offers personalized prescription skincare to target redness and inflammation, soothe the skin, and promote healing.
• Advanced Treatments: At Dr. Tego Clinic, we offer:
  • Chemical Peels: Gently exfoliate the skin, removing damaged layers and stimulating new, healthy skin cell production.
  • Microneedling with PRP: Stimulates collagen production and enhances skin healing, reducing redness and improving texture.
  • Exosome Therapy: Uses growth factors to enhance the skin's natural healing process, targeting redness and inflammation.
