Vascular Skin Concerns
Vascular skin concerns like spider veins, broken capillaries, and rosacea can be frustrating and difficult to conceal, but advanced laser technology offers effective aesthetic solutions. At Eterna Vein & Medical Aesthetics in Puyallup, Washington, we utilize the Excel V+ laser system to safely treat a wide range of vascular and pigmentation concerns. This technology delivers precise results with minimal downtime to give you more even-toned skin.
Our experienced team combines medical expertise with aesthetic artistry to provide personalized treatment plans for patients in the Seattle area. Excel V+ offers a versatile, non-invasive solution tailored to your unique skin concerns.
What Is Excel V+?
Excel V+ is a laser treatment system that primarily treats vascular skin concerns like broken capillaries, spider and varicose veins, rosacea, port wine stain birthmarks, and cherry angiomas.
About Excel V+
Excel V+ is among the most advanced vascular lasers on the market. By delivering two clinically proven laser wavelengths, 1064 nm and 532 nm, excel V+ can address more than 20 treatment indications.
The versatility of excel V+ is demonstrable. It features both a large 16 mm spot size, 50% more power relative to its predecessor, and allows for faster treatments on the face and chest. Excel V+ also features a small, pen-like handpiece available in a 1 or 2 mm spot size, that facilitates the tracing of small vessels and lesions, especially around the nose for targeted treatments.
The 532 nm wavelength is a primary choice for the treatment of superficial vascular lesions. The 532 nm wavelength can also be used to remove unwanted pigment on the face and body.
Another advantage of the 532 nm wavelength is the ability to address both hemoglobin and melanin (reds and browns) at the same time.
The 1064 nm laser is particularly effective in the treatment of deeper blood vessels and vascular concerns that are blue or purple. This includes veins in the legs, venous lakes, venous malformations, and port-wine stains.
The enhanced excel V+ offers a greater range of spot sizes and versatility. These advances allow for a speedier and more comfortable experience for our patients. The new pencil-sized tip allows for more precise beam delivery for smaller lesions. The combination of the 532 nm and 1062 nm wavelengths allows for the treatment of vascular and pigmentation conditions, whether superficial or deep, with a single device.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your Excel V+ laser treatment follows a straightforward process designed for your comfort and safety:
- The provider will outline the problematic veins.
- You and the provider will put on pairs of laser-protective safety glasses.
- Using the excel V+ Laser, the provider will use a pen-like tool to zap away the target veins.
- In under 30 minutes, your treatment will be done.
- Because excel V+ is a 100% external treatment, you can resume your normal activities right away.
Because excel V+ Laser treatments are completely non-invasive, there are no incisions, no needles, and very little recovery time. Patients receiving excel V+ treatment have said that it feels like quick, tiny stinging and cooling sensations.
