Everything You Need to Know About Excel V Face Laser Treatment for Skin Rejuvenation
Dr. Jeanine Downie of Image Dermatology ® P.C. in Montclair, New Jersey, routinely works with patients to help them clear their skin and turn back the hands of time on the face. For many, this is achieved with the Excel V face laser device for sun damage, veins, and facial redness. Let’s discuss the most commonly asked questions about the Excel V laser and its capabilities.
What is the Excel V laser, and what conditions can it be used to treat?
Experience the unparalleled capability of the Excel V, one of the top-tier treatments and laser technology used to address common skin concerns such as facial redness, superficial veins, and sun-damaged skin. This device can specifically target the redness caused by rosacea and sun damage, spider veins around the nose or legs, cherry angiomas, and a broad range of other typical skin conditions. Additionally, it can address the blue veins that sometimes emerge on the face or the legs. Dr. Downie may suggest using the Excel V laser alongside other treatments to achieve optimal results in certain cases.
Besides its effectiveness on redness and vascular lesions, the Excel V also offers a solution for brown spots (solar lentigos) induced by sun exposure. After years of continuous exposure to the sun, the skin may acquire tan or brown spots. These spots, often appearing on the face, neck, hands, upper chest, or anywhere else on the body, can be effectively managed with the Excel V, resulting in a more balanced and improved skin tone.
What should I expect when I arrive for my laser skin treatment?
First, our team will ensure you are comfortable during your treatment, whether you are having a larger or smaller area treated. They will clean the skin and cover any unwanted hair. A typical session lasts 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the actual size of the targeted area, and patients often come once a month for a minimum of 4 to 6 treatment sessions. This service is available for both males and females across all races and ethnicities. As the Excel V laser is non-invasive, there is no need for anesthesia or numbing cream.
During this procedure, our patients might experience a mild tingling sensation as tiny pulses of light penetrate the deeper layers of skin to target pigment and blood vessels without harming surrounding tissue. Patients often describe it as a rubber band snapping against their skin. This discomfort can be minimized by using cool compresses after treatment.
What can I expect with downtime after my Excel V laser treatment?
Recovery time post-treatment with this laser can differ based on the specific area and condition being treated and your individual response to the treatment. We are always available and eager to discuss these factors before your procedure.
