Brief Answer: Rosacea or abnormal vasomotor function Detailed Answer: Hi.Thanks for writing on HCM. Some people are have flush red face and neck which becomes more during sun exposure and when you approach middle age. I were to first rule out pimples or rosacea which are commonly seen.In their absence this is due to an abnormal vasomotor reaction in the body the cause for which is not know.Generally treatments XXXXXXX work.However I advice my patients to: 1.Avoid sun exposure or take precaution such as sun protection. 2.Avoid using iced water since it cools the core body temperature and body has to work heating up again. 3.Laser offer some benefit but may require multiple/repeated sittings. Hope this helps and answers your query.

Brief Answer: Laser & cosmetic creams Detailed Answer: If the blush is due to vasomotor disturbance then laser might help as discussed.If its of cosmetic concern it can be masked by using skin creams which suit your skin tone.Hope this helps.
