The broken blood vessels on my face have gone

BEFORE: What's Mark's cheek used to look like before the treatment

Mark Cummins put up with a very visible bloodshot cheek since the late 70s. Luckily, he came across the Pulse-Light Clinic and now the unsightly condition, which did nothing for Mark's self-confidence, is a thing of the past.

When Mark was in his 20s, he decided to join the Territorial Army, and he regularly found himself on the shooting range at Bisley, competing as a member of the TA shooting team. What appears to have happened is that the powerful recoil of the gun, constantly bruising his right cheek, left permanant broken blood vessel and capillary damage. As time progressed, the area of his cheek became more visible as an underlying condition of rosacea worsened.

It just so happens that Mark's brother, Roger, works in the same building at the Pulse-Light Clinic in Fenchurch Street in the City of London, which specializes in treating rosacea. So Mark, who is a chartered surveyor from Leicester, went and had a free consultation at the clinic where he was told that the treatment - Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) - would get rid of the condition for him in only six months, at one session a month and at a price that Mark felt was very reasonable. What's more, the clinic was offering a guarantee whereby he would continue to receive treatments until resolution of the condition, at no extra charge. This appealed to Mark as he had heard about other clinics which went through the motions of delivering their treatments without any degree of resultion and with no end in sight - all at extra charge.

So, about 18 months ago, he went ahead and had it done over the six-month period, with each session taking about 45 minutes. "It felt a bit like someone pinging an elastic band at me," says Mark. "It was not unpleasant, just slightly uncomfortable - but there's no gain without pain as they say!"

AFTER: How Mark looks today

"I'm now very happy that it's been sorted out once and for all. It's been on my mind since I was in my 20s and it really didn't help my self-confidence as a young lad. I was very conscious of it but now it has gone and I feel much more confident about myself when I am with others. The treatment was very effective and Pulse-Light Clinic have done a good job."
