What Can Excel V Laser
Many people are affected with vascular skin conditions or pigmentation disorders that are either cosmetic or chronic. These conditions can have a serious effect on quality of life and/or well-being. To help treat and reduce these conditions, the Cutera excel V laser precisely targets vascular concerns and benign pigmented lesions on the face and body. Below is a list of vascular conditions that can be treated with Excel V:
Why Choose Excel V Laser
It’s safe for all skin types and skin tones, and it can be used anywhere on the face and body to treat pigmentation issues.
Each treatment session is fast, usually taking 15–20 minutes
There’s minimal discomfort. Patients usually feel a stinging sensation like a rubber band snap. A topical anesthetic, applied prior to treatment, can help numb the skin, and the handpiece’s proprietary cooling mechanism prevents overheating.
Side effects, including redness and swelling, usually resolve within a few days. You can typically wear makeup and return to normal activities immediately.

How It Works
The ultimate goal of laser treatment is to induce controlled damage to the affected blood vessels through destruction of hemoglobin (a protein found in red blood cells) while minimizing injury to adjacent structures. To accomplish this, the Cutera excel V utilizes a long-pulsed Nd: YAG laser that targets and destroys the abnormal or damaged blood vessels responsible for the vascular condition. In fact, the Cutera excel V is the only tunable laser system on the market that combines two ultra-precise wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm) in one device. After the body naturally eliminates these cells, the skin will return to its normal tone and texture.

Often, patients find that 3-5 treatments are sufficient for smaller veins. However, the number of treatments necessary depends on the number, color, and size of the vessels being treated. For conditions that affect a large portion of the skin and require additional treatment sessions, the price increases proportionally. Since individual results vary we schedule a consultation to customize a plan to suit your individual needs.

Excel V Vascular Treatment FAQ
___________
Excel V has been shown effective at treating a number of conditions, including rosacea, telangiectasias, leg veins, port wine stains, and cherry angiomas. Excel V treats mild and severe forms of these conditions. The system may also have a cosmetic benefit for patients who have skin lesions or scars from past injuries or surgeries.
___________
Excel V, which was developed by Cutera, is a new laser system for providing treatment of a variety of vascular skin conditions. Many skin conditions manifest in the form of broken or abnormal blood vessels in the skin, such is the case with rosacea, in which the facial blood vessels dilate excessively causing redness and flushing. Excel V treats these conditions by administering a unique high power green laser that is absorbed by the abnormal blood vessels in the skin. The laser heats the abnormal vessels until they are removed. At the end of treatment, the patient’s natural skin tone and color are restored.
___________
Often, patients find that 3-5 treatments are sufficient for smaller veins. However, the number of treatments necessary depends on the number, color, and size of the vessels being treated. For conditions that affect a large portion of the skin and require additional treatment sessions, the price increases proportionally. Since individual results vary we schedule a consultation to customize a plan to suit your individual needs.
___________
Most patients have expressed a stinging sensation as the pulses of energy are delivered through the hand piece. No local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required. Following the treatment, the pain is minimal to nonexistent.
___________
Although many patients report few, if any side effects, those most commonly noticed are slight reddening and local swelling of the skin. These effects typically last about 48-72 hours.
___________
Most patients find that the majority of the treated veins have shown significant improvement within 8-12 weeks of treatment. However, your final results may not be apparent for several months. Over time, it is possible for new veins to appear, but these veins can be retreated.
___________
The benefit of Excel V is that the treatment can be highly adjusted to ensure that the physician is delivering a level of treatment that specifically matches the patient’s skin condition. The system contains various wavelength modes, allowing the delivery of both short pulses for superficial blemishes, such as small lesions and skin discoloration, and longer pulses for deeper vascular conditions, such as leg veins and nodular port wine stains. It also offers a wide range of laser spot sizes to ensure that small treatment areas can be targeted at greater precision and larger areas can be treated in a shorter period. This high level of customization is what makes Excel V so effective at treating, often in one session, so many different conditions, which, in the past, would have required several different systems or procedures.
___________
After an initial consultation with the patient, the physician determines if treatment with the Excel V is appropriate. Unlike other procedures, injections or topical anesthesia are not required throughout the duration of the 15 – 30 minute procedure. Depending on the condition, the physician places the Excel V hand piece over the affected areas of the skin until the abnormal vessels diminish. To minimize discomfort and protect the patient’s skin, the Excel V uses a proprietary cooling mechanism.
___________
All skin types indentified in the Fitzpatrick skin type classification can be treated with the Excel V system. This classification denotes 6 different skin types, ranging from very light (type I) to very dark (type VI). The 532nm wavelength is ideal for treating skin types I – IV and the 1064nm mode can be used on all skin types I – VI.
