Can the Vbeam Improve Redness?
The Vbeam pulsed dye laser is the gold-standard for facial redness associated with acne, cystic acne, chickenpox scars, and rosacea. The Vbeam uses a vascular wavelength of light that focuses directly on aberrant blood vessels and microvasculature that can cause red flushing on the skin. Unlike other lasers, the Vbeam has a favored chromophore for blood vessels.
Dr. Raffy Karamanoukian at Kare Plastic Surgery + Skin Health Center in Santa Monica has expertise in the management of rosacea and facial redness. Small blood vessels and hypererythema can be eliminated using the Vbeam laser. In most cases, patients need more than one treatment to achieve a satisfactory outcome.
Kare Plastic Surgery offers treatments with the Vbeam laser by appointment. Please call our patient care coordinator to discuss your options for treatment with the Vbeam pulsed dye laser.
