The Cutera Excel V Laser System stands at the forefront of pigmentation treatment technology. The Cutera Excel V Laser System, with its dual wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm), stands at the forefront of pigmentation treatment technology, uniquely equipped to address and correct a broad spectrum of pigmentation concerns, from superficial blemishes like sun spots and freckles to deeper issues like age spots. The precision of the Cutera Excel V means targeted treatment that respects the surrounding skin, ensuring safety and effectiveness. The Cutera Excel V laser system treats skin pigmentation by targeting and heating the dark spots on the skin. Here’s a simplified explanation of how it works: Light Absorption: The laser emits light that is specifically absorbed by the pigmented areas, which are darker than the surrounding skin. Heat Generation: Once the pigment absorbs the light, it gets converted into heat, which destroys the pigmented cells. Natural Clearance: After these cells are destroyed, the body naturally removes the leftover particles through its immune system. This process is precise, which minimises side effects and allows for effective treatment of various pigmentation issues with minimal discomfort.

Why Cutera Excel V?

Understanding the Technology’s Approach

The Cutera Excel V is an advanced laser system used in our skin consultations. It utilises dual wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm), which allows our clinicians to discuss options for a broad spectrum of pigmentation concerns, from areas of superficial discolouration to deeper-set pigmentation. A key aspect of our consultation is to assess how this technology may be suitable for you, focusing on its ability to target specific areas while discussing the approach in relation to surrounding skin.

During your consultation, we will explain how the Cutera Excel V laser system functions. Here’s a simplified overview of the technology’s mechanism:

Light Absorption: The system is designed to emit light that is preferentially absorbed by darker pigment in the skin compared to the surrounding tissue.
Thermal Effect: When the light energy is absorbed by the pigment, it converts to heat. This thermal effect is intended to break down the cells containing the excess pigment.
Natural Processes: Following a session, the body’s natural processes are involved in clearing the fragmented pigment particles from the skin.

This targeted approach is a key topic of discussion in your consultation, where we will cover what to expect during and after a session, including potential side effects and comfort management.

Focus on Your Comfort

Understanding the client experience is an important part of any consultation. The Cutera Excel V system features an integrated cooling mechanism, designed to enhance comfort during the session. We will discuss this feature and all aspects of what to expect, helping you to make an informed decision about your options for addressing pigmentation concerns.
