The Gold Standard in photo facial rejuvenation has quickly become the Candela Vbeam® Perfecta pulsed dye laser. This laser is specifically designed to treat underlying vasculature and epidermal pigmented lesions without damaging the surface of the skin.
Perfecta uses micro-pulse technology to provide visibly effective treatments without any open wounds, facial crusting, "purpura," or laser bruising, so patients who receive treatment can walk out the door without embarrassing side effects.
Because of the specific wavelength of the laser, and the patented DCD epidermal cooling and protection system, it's a simple and complete rejuvenation system. No anesthesia is required, and no skin irritating "topicals," ointments or gels are applied for Vbeam treatment. The DCD is all that is needed for comfort and protection, and evaporates after the laser beam is applied so there's no "clean up" on the skin.
What conditions can be treated effectively with the Vbeam Perfecta?
The Vbeam Perfecta treats conditions such as facial and nasal veins, sun spots and freckles, diffuse redness and rosacea, psoriasis, even unsightly scars and warts; and can be used on the face and body.
Treatment for adult acne is extremely effective with the use of ALA (amino levulanic acid) and Vbeam laser technology.
When will I see the results of a Vbeam Perfecta treatment?
Vbeam treatment produces an immediately visible result, and there is no recovery time or anesthesia required post treatment. The result is a glowing and even looking complexion; some patients even notice an improvement in pore size.
How many treatments are recommended?
A light is used to target the affected area which causes the red blood cells within the vessel to heat up. This injures the blood vessel wall causing the vessel to close down. While some areas respond with just one treatment, others may require multiple treatments over several visits. When multiple treatments are required, significant improvement should be noted with each visit.
