FAQs
What is an excel V?
Excel V is the most advanced aesthetic technology that combines two powerfully precise lasers to target and eliminate vascular concerns (redness, unsightly veins) and benign pigmented lesions (age spots, sun spots, discolouration) on the face and body.
What does excel V treat?
Excel V treats nearly twenty unique aesthetic and dermatologic skin concerns. The most common excel V treatments include rosacea, facial and leg veins, age/brown spots, and acne scars.
How does excel V work?
Your skin therapist will select one of excel V’s two lasers and customise the treatment settings to target the colour and depth of your skin concern.
How many treatments are required?
Most treatments require only one to two treatment sessions. The number of treatments will vary based on your condition. Your skin therapist will discuss a customised treatment plan during your consultation.
Is the treatment painful?
Excel V treatments can feel similar to a rubber band snapping against skin. Depending on the procedure, a cooled treatment tip will be in contact with the skin to protect and provide comfort to the area.
Are there any side effects? What about down time?
Redness and/or swelling can be expected following treatment and will resolve within a few days. Treated brown spots will darken and slough off within 3 to 6 days. For full face treatments, swelling will peak 24 to 48 hours post treatment and usually resolves within a few days. Typically, you can wear make-up and return to normal activities immediately. Your provider may recommend a topical steroid to reduce swelling as needed.
