Best Candidates
Laser vein removal can help patients who have visible veins or skin lesions on their face and body. The Cutera excel V system has one of the broadest capabilities of a laser vein removal system, which allows it to correct red, purple blue, and brown pigments in the skin.
What to Expect
Considered a "lunchtime" cosmetic procedure, laser vein removal can be performed in the doctor's office without any anesthesia. A gel will be spread over the area being treated and then the handpiece is passed over the skin. Patients may experience mild discomfort or pain as the handpiece pulses, but the procedure usually doesn't take long. Most patients will be able to see visible results right after their treatment, but patients may need 4 – 6 treatment sessions to get their best results.
Other Considerations
Patients should be able to leave the office immediately after their treatment to resume their normal day. The treated areas may have some redness or swelling for up to 1 – 3 days after the treatment.
Nothing But Clear Skin
Stop covering pigmented skin conditions like rosacea, spider veins, acne scars, and more with fast, effective laser vein treatments. Schedule a consultation to discuss your concerns and learn if laser vein treatments with the Cutera excel V can help you.
