Cutera Excel V - Laser Resurfacing
Description
The Cutera Excel V is a medical laser system used for various dermatological treatments. It is designed to address a wide range of skin concerns, including vascular and pigmented lesions, as well as certain cosmetic conditions.
The Excel V laser utilizes a combination of wavelengths and advanced cooling technology to deliver targeted energy pulses to the skin. This allows for precise treatment and minimizes discomfort during the procedure.
Some common applications of the Cutera Excel V include:
- Vascular Lesion Treatment: The Excel V is effective in treating vascular lesions, such as spider veins, telangiectasia (dilated blood vessels), and rosacea. The laser energy is absorbed by the targeted blood vessels, causing them to coagulate and eventually fade from view.
- Pigmented Lesion Treatment: The Excel V can also target and treat pigmented lesions, including age spots, sunspots, freckles, and melasma. The laser energy is absorbed by the excess pigmentation, breaking it down and allowing the body to naturally eliminate the pigmented cells over time.
- Acne Scarring: The Excel V has been used to improve the appearance of acne scars. By stimulating collagen production and remodeling the skin’s texture, the laser helps reduce the visibility of acne scars and promotes smoother skin.
- Skin Rejuvenation: The Cutera Excel V can be utilized for overall skin rejuvenation, improving skin tone and texture. The laser energy stimulates collagen production, which helps tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
During a treatment session with the Cutera Excel V, a healthcare professional or dermatologist will evaluate your specific concerns and customize the settings accordingly. The number of sessions required will depend on the individual and the condition being treated.
