The Candela V Beam is the gold standard vascular laser. I is the laser found in the regional dermatology specialist units. It is used to treat congenital birthmarks such as port wine stains, rosacea, thread veins resulting from radiotherapy treatments on the chest after breast cancer treatments, spider veins, vascular scars, sun freckles and active acne and many other conditions.
It is particularly good at treating sensitive areas of skin such as the face, back of the hands, neck and chest. It is the laser used to remove red birth marks. The treatment is relatively painless and no form of anaesthetic cream or injection is required before treatment. 2-3 treatments are usually required.
The Candela laser is available at Court House Clinic, Stockport.
Candela Gentle Yag Laser.
This laser is also available at our Stockport clinic and is used to treat unwanted hair in all skin types including dark skins, for removal of larger purple thread veins and also for skin tightening on the face to reduce sagging skin on the cheeks, jawline and neck.
