VBeam® Perfecta Pulsed Dye Laser

Vbeam® lasers have long been regarded as the 'gold standard' for the treatment of vascular conditions, and work by delivering an intense but gentle burst of yellow light to selectively targeted areas of the skin. The laser light is selectively absorbed by excess superficial blood vessels in the skin and can be used to treat:
  • Redness of the face and neck
  • Rosacea
  • Broken capillaries
  • Spider naevi, angiomas and haemangiomas, venous lakes
  • Port wine stains and some other birthmarks
  • Early scars and red stretchmarks
  • Some fine, red leg veins
vbeam-port vbeam-rosacea vbeam-spider Your Dermatologist will assess whether your condition is suitable for treatment, and discuss the likely cosmetic outcome, suggested number of treatments and potential side-effects. Patients with port wine stains or birthmarks and some with redness or broken capillaries on the head and neck may qualify for a Medicare rebate that covers some of the cost of laser treatments. The number of treatments required varies depending on the condition being treated.

Medlite® C6 Q-Switched Nd:YAG Laser

Say "good-bye" to brown age spots, and "hello" to younger looking skin with the ability 'zap away' unwanted birthmarks, age spots and tattoos. yag-solar yag-lentigo yag-tattoo The Medlite® Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is one of the most technologically advanced lasers for removing pigmented lesions with minimal risk of damaging your normal skin. It emits a powerful beam of specialised light that targets the unwanted skin pigment to remove it, with minimal risk of damaging your normal skin. The ultrashort pulses of light and high energies can also be used to shatter tattoo ink particles, removing unwanted tattoos. Because of the multiple ink colours, different dyes used and the different types of tattoos, response to laser treatment is variable. The laser can be used to treat:
  • Freckles
  • Age spots
  • Pigmented (brown) birthmarks
  • Café au lait macules
  • Tattoos
  • Iron staining
The impact of the laser is similar to the snap of a rubber band on the skin. Most patients do not require anaesthetic although numbing creams are available if needed. Most brown spots are removed with one or two treatments, but deeper lesions, tattoos and birthmarks require multiple treatments.
