Excel V Laser Skin Treatment Q & A
What is Excel V Laser Skin Treatment?
The Excel V Laser Skin Treatment uses a high-powered laser to target pigment and vessels in the skin. It safely reduces the appearance of undesired vessels, scars, spots, and other vascular skin concerns for people with all skin tones. It is noninvasive and can be used to treat several common skin conditions on an outpatient basis.
How does Excel V Laser Skin Treatment work?
The doctor uses a handheld device to apply the Excel V Laser to your skin. When the high-powered laser penetrates the skin, it breaks down the vein lining and causes it to shut, restoring a normal appearance to the surface of the skin over time.
The Excel V Laser Skin Treatment can be applied in different pulse modes to target various skin conditions effectively. The procedure should only last 15-30 minutes to cover the affected areas.
Downtime should be minimal, though you may experience redness for a couple of days following the procedure. Results can be seen between two to six weeks following the treatment.
Is Excel V Laser Skin Treatment painful?
Patients who receive Excel V Laser Skin Treatment will experience minor discomfort during the procedure — many describe it as feeling a rubber band snap on the skin — but topical anesthesia is not necessary, and the discomfort will reduce when the laser treatment is complete. The laser mechanism also includes a cooling feature to reduce pain right away.
