Ruby point on nose... grrrr!

As someone with rosacea, I know a thing or two about this. 

First off, make sure to wash your face with lukewarm water and never warm water, as this can make matters worse. That includes showers, by the way. Also stay out of the sun as much as you can, and refrain from using alcohol. 

Treating broken capillaries is a difficult affair. Yes, laser treatment is the best option you have available. This destroys the capillaries, after which they are absorbed into the body and your appearance should improve very quickly. Always choose the most reputable plastic surgery clinic you have access to, do not save on the cost because the outcome may depend on it. You want the most experienced surgeon (with excellent reviews) you can find. 

In the meantime, do you need any makeup tips or are you good?

Thanks for replying so fast! I appreciate it. I use a primer followed by concealer and only then foundation on the actual ruby point area, and then a fixer. It seems to work pretty well, but of course there is the unfortunate affair of not being able to go anywhere with "naked", or makeup free, skin. I would be so happy if the thing were gone already.

I have heard that there are people for whom even laser treatment does next to nothing, so that has me concerned and wondering exactly what type of laser I should look for. I need someone who knows how to deal with this, rather than general aging and acne and things.

OK, in addition to some tips that were already mentioned by other posters, there are some things you could try at home for your ruby point before resorting to more radical and costly measures. Taking vitamin C and lysine supplements helps some people fade their broken capillaries. Don't give up too early, stick with it. Others use vitamin E oil and grapeseed oil on their own or in addition to the supplements. Again, if it doesn't help, it's still good for your skin. These things are worth trying, and you can always go for laser later on.

I'm right there with you, I mean right there - except that I also did laser it a few times and the stupid thing is still there. At this point I'm not sure what to do. It's really something that is always there with me. It's something that makes me feel very bad about myself. I know you're probably looking for more positive replies but that's where I'm at and I felt I needed to share and perhaps get some tips on what to possibly do next as well! Yes, makeup's a life saver but I want to look good naturally as well and not always feel like I am trying to hide my real ugly self. :(
