Get clear, healthier-looking skin with VBeam laser treatments at Lasky Skin Center in Beverly Hills! VBeam pulsed dye laser (PDL) specifically targets vascular skin imperfections like spider veins and broken capillaries to help you get the smooth complexion you deserve.
What is VBeam and How Does It Work?
VBeam is a type of pulsed dye laser (PDL) used to treat various vascular skin conditions including:
- Rosacea
- Spider veins
- Port-wine stains birthmarks
- Certain types of scars
- Overall tone and appearance
VBeam laser treatment uses a specific wavelength of light energy that targets oxyhemoglobin (responsible for the red color in blood vessels). The light turns into heat, which safely damages the blood vessels without affecting the surrounding tissue. Over time, the body naturally absorbs these vessels, reducing redness and improving the skin's appearance.
The VBeam laser also features a dynamic cooling device (DCD), which sprays a cooling mist onto the skin before each laser pulse. This cooling mechanism helps to protect the skin and makes the treatment a more comfortable experience.
How Long Do VBeam Laser Results Last?
The results of VBeam treatment can vary depending on the condition being treated and individual factors such as skin type and lifestyle. Typically, the results of VBeam can last anywhere from several months to a few years. For some conditions, such as rosacea or spider veins, maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain the results over time.
It's important to note that while VBeam can provide long-lasting improvements, factors like sun exposure, aging, and skin care habits can influence the longevity of the results. Periodic follow-up treatments may be needed to maintain the best outcomes.
How Long Until I See Results?
For many patients, initial improvements can be observed within a few days to a week after the procedure. However, the full extent of the improvement might take some time to develop as the body continues to heal and the treated blood vessels are gradually reabsorbed.
Multiple VBeam sessions may be required to achieve the desired results, particularly for more severe conditions or when treating larger areas. These treatments are typically spaced a few weeks apart to allow the skin time to recover and respond to the therapy.
For optimal results, it's important to follow any post-treatment care instructions provided by your dermatologist. Regular follow-up treatments may be recommended to maintain the best possible results.
Does VBeam for Rosacea Work?
Yes, VBeam can help manage rosacea symptoms and improve the overall appearance of the skin, though ongoing maintenance treatments may be recommended to keep the condition under control. The VBeam pulsed dye laser targets and reduces the appearance of the blood vessels responsible for the redness associated with rosacea.
Patients with rosacea often see a noticeable improvement after just one treatment, but multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results, depending on the severity of the condition. The treatment is generally well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort and downtime.
