Reduce redness for a clear, even complexion.
Vbeam is a pulsed dye laser, which means that the energy from the laser is delivered in pulses and a dye is used to generate laser beams of different colours. Vbeam’s light energy targets hemoglobin, the red protein in blood cells in the blood vessels thus reducing redness in the treated area. Since Vbeam is used to treat dilated blood vessels it is sometimes referred to as a vascular laser.
Tired of hiding your red spots? Rosacea, red spots (also known as cherry angiomas), spider veins, broken blood vessels, port wine stains, birth marks, vascular lesions, and even certain scars are all conditions which can be treated with Vbeam.*
*Individual results may vary
A treatment generally takes 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
Results generally appear a few days following treatment and improve with each treatment. Patients with facial redness and blood vessels will typically require an average of 2-3 treatments. Patients with port-wine stains may need 6-10 treatments to lighten a port-wine stain. Patients being treated for scarring may need up to 6 treatments.
Most clients describe the sensation of similar to the light snap of an elastic band against the skin during treatment. To minimize discomfort, Vbeam has a special Dynamic Cooling Device, which delivers a cold spray to the skin just before the laser pulse is emitted There is no downtime following treatment.
