Why Cutera Excel V for Capillaries?

Precision and Excellence in Treatment The Cutera Excel V Laser System is a leader in vascular treatment technology, employing its dual wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm) to precisely target and treat unwanted capillaries. Whether you’re dealing with fine, superficial capillaries on the face or deeper, more prominent vessels on the body, the Excel V is equipped to handle these vascular issues with utmost precision.

How Does Excel V Treat Capillaries?

Selective Targeting and Effective Treatment The process of treating capillaries with the Excel V laser is refined and straightforward: Selective Absorption: The laser emits wavelengths that are preferentially absorbed by the blood vessels but not the surrounding tissues. This ensures focused treatment directly on the capillaries. Thermal Action: Upon absorbing the laser light, the targeted blood vessels heat up. This heat causes the walls of the capillaries to collapse and seal, effectively reducing their appearance without harming the surrounding skin. Natural Healing: After treatment, the body gradually clears away the treated blood vessels naturally. This leads to a clearer, more even skin tone.

Understanding the Cutera Excel V Technology

A Focus on Precision
The Cutera Excel V is an advanced laser system that utilises dual wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm). This technology allows for the precise targeting of vascular structures. During your consultation, we will discuss how these features can be used to address a range of vascular presentations, from finer, superficial capillaries to deeper vessels, as part of your personalised consultation plan.

How Does the Cutera Excel V System Work?

The Technical Process
The process of using the Cutera Excel V system is refined and straightforward, and we will explain it in detail during your consultation:

Selective Absorption: The laser is designed to emit specific wavelengths of light. These wavelengths are intended to be preferentially absorbed by haemoglobin within the blood vessels, with minimal absorption by the surrounding tissue.
Thermal Action: When the laser energy is absorbed, it converts to heat within the targeted vessel. The aim of this thermal effect is to cause the vessel walls to collapse and seal. This process is highly focused on the targeted area.
Post-Procedure Response: Following the session, the body’s natural processes begin to work on the treated vessels. We will discuss the expected post-procedure experience and how your skin may respond as part of your consultation.

Focused on Your Comfort
Your experience during the consultation and any subsequent procedures is important to us. The Cutera Excel V system features an integrated cooling mechanism. This technology cools the skin’s surface before, during, and after each laser pulse. We will discuss how this feature contributes to the overall comfort of the experience during your appointment.
