EXCEL V+ BY CUTERA

Advanced laser for vascular and pigment concerns

Dr Sharon Crichlow is excited to offer Excel V+, which is clinically proven to address over twenty different dermatological and aesthetic skin conditions. Common issues it can treat include rosacea, facial and leg veins, spider naevi, acne and post- acne redness, cherry angiomas, port wine stains, irregular pigmentation, melasma, and an uneven skin tone.

Cutera's Excel V+ offers two technologies in one: CoolView and Laser Genesis. CoolView utilises targeted wavelengths to treat vascular and pigmented irregularities such as red veins and hyperpigmentation, while Laser Genesis offers a non-invasive solution for general skin rejuvenation with no downtime.

What is Excel V+?

Cutera's Excel V+ laser device combines two precise laser wavelengths in one device to enable treatment of a wide variety of conditions, whether superficial or deeper problems. This allows Dr Sharon Crichlow to tailor the treatment to the results you wish to achieve, as small areas can be precisely targeted and larger areas can be treated quickly.

Why do I need Aviclear?

You can benefit from Aviclear laser if you have mild, moderate or severe inflammatory acne.
How many treatments do I need?

Treatment consists of 3 sessions at monthly intervals.
How long is each appointment?

1 hour.
Is any pre-treatment needed?

I recommend you take a long-acting non-sedating antihistamine such as Loratadine, desloratine or cetirizine on the day of treatment and for at least one week after each treatment as this reduces the post-treatment inflammation and flare. Your regular acne routine can be continued throughout your sessions until the end of your treatments.
What should I expect during treatment? Is it painful? Is any analgesia required?

For all laser treatments, goggles must be worn. Most patients tolerate the treatment well rating the pain around 4 out of 10- we do not use topical anaesthetic. If you are quite sensitive then it would be helpful to take some paracetamol prior. Wet gauzes are placed on your skin to keep it damp throughout the treatment. The Aviclear tip is also cold which cools the skin and protects it during the treatment. You will feel a cold pressure along with the brief warmth of the laser. Your skin will go red transiently but typically this lasts less than an hour.
Is there any downtime?

No. There will be some redness and a small swelling at each injection site, but this will go within an hour or so unless you get a bruise- bruises can last up to 2 weeks.
Is it safe for all skin types?

Yes.
Are there any common side effects / complications that I should know about?

Side effects and complications are minimal.
