What is a Vascular Laser

Vascular laser therapy is a specialized treatment designed to target and reduce visible blood vessels and vascular lesions on the skin. This advanced laser technology works by emitting specific wavelengths of light that are absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood vessels. As the light energy is absorbed, it generates heat, causing the vessel walls to collapse and eventually be reabsorbed by the body. Vascular laser is highly effective for treating conditions such as spider veins, rosacea, broken capillaries, and cherry angiomas, offering precise results with minimal impact on surrounding skin. This non-invasive treatment is quick and requires little to no downtime, allowing patients to achieve a clearer, more even skin tone with minimal discomfort.

The ideal candidate

Ideal candidates are typically in good health and have no active skin infections or open wounds in the area to be treated. While vascular laser therapy is effective across a range of skin types, individuals with lighter skin tones often achieve the best results due to the laser’s ability to precisely target blood vessels. Additionally, those who are not pregnant and do not have certain blood or skin disorders are generally well-suited for this treatment.

Benefits of Vascular Laser treatment

  • Effective for Various Vascular Issues: Vascular laser treatment can address a range of concerns, including spider veins, broken capillaries, rosacea, and vascular lesions like venous lakes, offering targeted solutions for clearer skin.
  • Precision Targeting: The laser specifically targets blood vessels, minimizing impact on surrounding tissue and leading to precise, effective results.
  • Non-Invasive and Minimal Discomfort: As a non-surgical option, vascular laser treatment is relatively painless and requires no incisions or anesthesia, making it comfortable for most patients.
  • Quick and Convenient: Treatment sessions are typically short, allowing patients to return to normal activities immediately afterward, making it an easy option for those with busy schedules.
  • Minimal Downtime: Patients usually experience little to no downtime, with only mild redness or swelling that subsides quickly, allowing for a faster return to daily routines.
  • Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, vascular laser treatment provides lasting improvements, as treated vessels gradually fade or are reabsorbed by the body over time.
  • Enhanced Skin Tone and Appearance: The treatment leaves skin looking clearer, more even-toned, and healthier, boosting confidence and satisfaction with appearance.

Conditions Treated with Excel V+

Port Wine Stains

Birthmarks characterized by reddish-purple discoloration, commonly found on the face and neck.

Venous Lake

Small, dark blue or purple, soft spot that appears on the skin, commonly on sun-exposed areas like the lips or ears, caused by a dilated vein and often mistaken for a bruise or mole.

Fundamental Aspect of Excel V+ for Vascular Treatments

Designed to deliver consistent results and cater to various skin types, the Excel V+ provides our doctor with a powerful tool for safe, reliable, and customised vascular treatments.

Reduction of Abnormal Vasculature

Specifically target and eliminate abnormal or dilated capillaries, leading to a histological normalization of the vascular architecture in affected areas, which improves overall skin appearance and function.

Stimulated Collagen Regeneration

Laser Genesis stimulates dermal collagen production by delivering controlled heat to the skin layers, which leads to improved skin elasticity, texture, and resilience over time.

Controlled Thermal Relaxation Time

Deliver energy within the thermal relaxation time of blood vessels, ensuring heat is confined to the target vessels without dispersing to surrounding tissues, which minimizes side effects and maximizes safety.

Controlled Inflammatory Response

The thermal impact from the laser initiates a controlled inflammatory response, which signals macrophages and other immune cells to remove the coagulated vessel remnants, enhancing the natural healing process.

Vascular Laser Options

Our advanced vascular laser treatments are designed to effectively address a wide range of vascular lesions across different skin types. Each laser treatment is customised to the patient’s unique skin needs, ensuring precise results, enhanced skin health, and an even, clearer complexion for all skin tones

Laser Genesis

Non-invasive treatment that stimulates collagen production to improve skin tone, texture, and appearance. It targets fine lines, pores, uneven texture, and redness, and is suitable for all skin types and regular skincare routine.

KTP 532 nm

Primarily to target superficial vascular issues, pigmentation, and redness in the skin. The KTP laser specifically absorbs hemoglobin and melanin, making it highly effective for treating conditions like spider veins, rosacea, cherry angiomas, and sunspots.

Nd Yag 1064 nm

Powerful and versatile laser used to address deep vascular lesions. Its 1064nm wavelength allows it to penetrate deeper into the skin compared to other lasers, making it ideal for targeting deeper blood vessels. The Nd Yag laser is also safe for a variety of skin types, including darker skin tones, due to its lower melanin absorption.

Your Laser Treatment Journey

Everyone’s journey with vascular laser treatment is unique, as each individual’s skin type, vascular concerns, and treatment goals require a personalised approach to achieve the best results.

The journey begins with a detailed consultation, where our doctor assess your skin type and severity of vascular concerns. This assessment allows us to determine the best laser option for you, ensuring precise targeting with minimal impact on surrounding tissue. During the procedure, the laser gently targets the problematic blood vessels, using light energy to reduce their visibility without causing too much discomfort or downtime.

After the treatment, our team provides thorough aftercare instructions to support optimal healing and enhance results. Patients are typically able to resume normal activities immediately, experiencing minimal redness that fades quickly. We also schedule follow-up appointments to track progress and address any additional concerns, making sure patients achieve a smoother, more even skin tone and feel fully supported throughout their journey.

The Recovery Period

Recovery from vascular laser treatment is generally quick and straightforward, with most patients experiencing minimal side effects. Immediately after the procedure, there may be some mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity in the treated area, which usually subsides within a few hours to a day. Occasionally, slight bruising or darkening of the targeted blood vessels may occur as the body begins to absorb the treated tissue, but this typically resolves within a week or two.

During recovery, it’s important to follow aftercare instructions provided by our doctor to promote healing and enhance results. This often includes avoiding sun exposure, applying sunscreen to protect the treated area, and refraining from strenuous activities for a few days. Most patients are able to resume normal routines immediately, with visible improvements becoming noticeable as the treated vessels fade over the following weeks, revealing clearer, healthier-looking skin. Regular follow-ups may be recommended to assess progress and determine if additional sessions are needed for optimal results.
