V-Beam Laser
The laser at the Plastic Surgery Center of Pennsylvannia is unique to the area and was originally developed for vascular malformations, such as severe birth marks, hemangiomas and scars. It was used in major medical universities, when discovered it had many other uses. Although Dr. Bergqvist can use it for those previously mentioned conditions, it is now strongly indicated for spider veins, blemishes, rosacea, acne and even fine lines. It helps scars and fine lines by inducing new collagen production and targets veins by breaking down the vein and is then reabsorbed by the body.
There is no prep needed once the Doctor decides in which way you will utilize it. You will simply cover your eyes with protective goggles and then they will target those areas. Since, this machine has cryogen released at the same time the laser is targeted, there is little to no pain. Some areas of the body require several visits, some will not. At times, the spider veins on the legs leave tiny bruises for several weeks and zones on the face may leave red marks for a couple of days. However, the results are worth it!
