VersaPulse® Laser

Commonly Treated Conditions:

• Spider Veins: Also known as broken capillaries or telangiectasias, these small, visible veins commonly affect the face, neck, or other body areas and are often a result of sun damage. They are most prevalent in individuals with fair complexions and typically respond well to VersaPulse® laser treatment. The nose and cheeks are the most commonly treated areas.
• Poikiloderma of Civatte: This condition, characterized by brown/red discoloration on the neck, is common and related to sun exposure. Although the name is unfamiliar to many, VersaPulse® laser provides one of the few effective treatments for this condition, typically requiring multiple sessions.
• Brown Spots and Skin Discolorations: The VersaPulse® laser can effectively treat individual brown spots as well as larger zones of discoloration. For larger areas, a technique called pigment blending is used, where the laser beam is “painted” over the affected skin to lighten the desired area.
• Collagen Remodeling: In addition to treating skin discolorations, the VersaPulse® laser is also used for a skin rejuvenation treatment called Collagen Remodeling. This treatment involves using a specific wavelength laser beam, which is “painted” over the face to stimulate the deep layers of the skin. A Zimmer chiller provides a continuous stream of super-cooled air, making this “laser facial” comfortable for patients. Collagen Remodeling is designed to improve skin tone and texture and is also beneficial for acne. Typically, a series of 3-5 treatments is recommended, each lasting around 15 minutes.

VersaPulse® laser treatments are performed in the office and usually do not require any anesthesia. A consultation is required for all patients new to the VersaPulse® laser to assess their specific needs and treatment plan. Following treatment, sun protection is essential to maintain results and protect the skin.
