Effectively Treat Visible Blood Vessels

Our medical spa specializes in vascular lesion removal using Cutera’s Excel V+ laser with dual 532nm KTP and 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelengths for precise, effective treatment of various vascular conditions.

How It Works

The laser’s specific wavelengths target hemoglobin in blood vessels, heating and collapsing them without damaging surrounding tissue. The body then naturally absorbs the treated vessels over time.
