How many sessions will I need, and how far apart can I have them?

V Beam treatments are patient specific depending on the concern and the desired outcome. On average it has been found that 3-5 sessions are needed to see a significant improvement. These sessions should be spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Depending on the specific concern, the number of sessions may be increased or decreased depending on the desired result.

What results can I expect?

Recovery period can vary from no time needed to 2 weeks. Some patients may experience bruising or redness, which can last between a few days to several weeks, while others may only have slight redness for a few hours. It is important to understand that while results are long-lasting, it cannot be guaranteed that results are permanent. Factors such as ageing, damage to the skin or the development of a medical condition affecting the skin may impact the results achieved.

Am I a suitable candidate?

An ideal candidate would be someone who suffers with redness or rosacea.

What areas can be treated?

The device can be used in most areas of the body, but the most common areas are the face, neck and arms.

What do I need to know before V Beam treatment?

Sun exposure should be avoided 2 weeks prior to treatment as well as the use of retinol which should be discontinued 5 days prior to treatment

Introduction to V-Beam for redness

The V Beam is a a non-ablative laser treatment that uses an intense beam of light, delivered in long pulses. It gently eliminates damaged or diseased cells. The laser can treat many vascular issues, such as rosacea, thread veins, pigmentation, premature stretch marks and burn scars. The light is absorbed safely and effectively by the pigment in the lesion that is being treated, without damaging the surrounding tissue and skin.

You'll be in safe hands with our award-winning team who specialise in non-surgical treatments. During your V Beam treatment, you'll feel a warm sensation as the laser is passed over the skin, but there is no need for anaesthetic. The treatment is very quick and the machine simultaneously releases cool air for added comfort. As with any treatment at PHI Clinic, we'll book you in for a consultation before your treatment to make sure the V Beam is the perfect match.

V Beam reviews

“I have been coming to the PHI Clinic for 6 years and I have the V beam treatment 3-4 times a year. I have been so pleased with the results. I have pale, sensitive skin with occasional flare ups which can make me conscious. I am always put at ease by Jenna who is calm, respectful, professional and experienced. As a result of having regular treatments, I am so much more confident. I have less redness, tighter pores and clearer skin.”

“Extremely beneficial and effective. I was treated by Dr Tapan Patel for Rosacea using the V-beam laser on a once monthly basis for a year and there was no downtime or adverse reaction.”

What is the V Beam and what is it used for?

The V Beam is a pulsed dye laser which is used to target redness in the skin and vascular issues such as thread veins, rosacea and pigmentation. It can also be used for premature stretch marks and burn scars. By using an intense beam of light delivered in long pulses, the light is absorbed safely and effectively by the pigment in the damaged cells, which is then heated up and destroyed.

What will I look like after V Beam treatment?

Initially the skin will remain red for up to an hour after treatment and may be hot to the touch. While there is no downtime the skin can remain slightly red with minor swelling to the area 24-72 hours post treatment. Normal daily activities may be resumed immediately post treatment. Recommended aftercare advice will be given after each treatment to help to achieve the best results possible and to minimise complications.

PHI Clinic recommended V Beam aftercare advice

Avoid sun exposure during laser treatment to reduce photosensitivity and the risk of burning.
If you must be in the sun, apply a minimum of SPF 30 regularly.
Refrain from using perfumed skincare products in the treated area for 48 hours.
In case of minor inflammation or irritation, consider using Aloe Vera or Vaseline.
If makeup is necessary, opt for mineral makeup after a 24-hour post-treatment period without makeup.
Minimise increased blood flow to the treatment area by avoiding strenuous exercise, hot baths, saunas, and steam rooms for 24 hours after treatment.
