Benefits of Pulsed Dye Lasers
Laser treatments are well known for their safety and effectiveness and pulsed dye lasers are no different. They are often used to treat facial redness from dilated or broken blood vessels, along with a variety of other conditions.
Pulsed dye lasers work by converting light into heat. This intense heat is delivered in gentle bursts into the targeted area of skin. The heat destroys damaged blood vessels while keeping the surrounding skin safe.
What Can a Pulsed Dye Laser Treat?
Pulsed dye laser treatment is an effective treatment for a variety of skin conditions like rosacea, facial redness, port wine stains, hypertrophic scars, keloid scars, telangiectasis and hemangiomas. Most patients see results immediately and this treatment is safe for all skin types.
PDL Laser Treatments for Aging Skin
Uneven skin tone, dark spots, bumpy texture, wrinkles and more can all be treated with pulsed dye lasers.
Facial Redness
Facial redness is often caused by broken blood vessels. Our laser can target these blood vessels to reduce their visibility and improve your facial redness and rosacea.
Likewise, laser treatment can correct spider veins and telangiectasia quickly.
Acne Scars and Hypertrophic Scars
Scarring left behind from acne breakouts, or hypertrophic scars that form from excess collagen can be a big source of concern for many people. While they don’t often cause any harm, they can impact confidence and self-esteem, leading many to seek removal.
Hemangiomas
Hemangioma is a benign tumor of blood vessels. It often forms a red mark that can grow for a time before starting to shrink. Sometimes people prefer to have them removed for cosmetic reasons.
Port Wine Stains
Nevus flammeus, or port wine stains, are commonly harmless birthmarks. They appear on the face, neck, scalp, arms, or legs. They can become very dark over time and make people feel self-conscious.
Am I a Good Candidate for Vbeam Perfecta?
You may be a good candidate for Vbeam if you are an adult over the age of 21 who desires smoother, clearer, more youthful skin and has realistic expectations about treatment outcome. Currently, Vbeam Perfecta is not recommended for those with dark skin tones, as the increase in skin pigment can make it less effective.
