Laser is the first line treatment for many types of vascular lesions. There are many types of benign vascular lesions and most of them can be easily treated using modern technologies, including different types of LASERs and IPL devices, which provide a safe, effective and non-invasive alternative procedure.

How It Works

How Lasers Treat Vascular Lesions
Lasers are an effective treatment for vascular lesions by targeting the blood vessels causing the issue. The laser emits a specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood.

Vascular lesions

This absorption heats and damages the vessel walls, causing them to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body. This process reduces or eliminates the appearance of the lesion, providing a clearer, more even skin tone with minimal discomfort and downtime.

How many treatments do I need?

Vascular lesions can be quite variable in terms of response to laser treatments. Some types of lesions will be completely gone after one treatment while others may a few treatments to adequately treat. Upon first consultation, our laser skin technician and doctor would be able to give you a personalized recommendation and assessment.

What does the treatment feel like?

At Pure Glow Medical aesthetics we offer a variety of comfort measures such as medical grade topical numbing cream and injection of local anesthetic into the area if needed. Once the area is adequately numbed, you might experience a slight pinching sensation during the treatment. Most patients tolerate this treatment with minimal discomfort.

Pigment

Increased pigmentation, such as age spots, sun spots, and melasma, are one of the most common skin concerns . Using advanced laser technology, we use highly targeted energy beams to eliminate excess melanin in the skin. The laser light is absorbed by the melanin, fragmenting it into smaller particles that are naturally eliminated by the body. This results in a clearer, more even skin tone with minimal discomfort and downtime. Achieve a brighter, more radiant complexion with our safe and effective laser services.

How Lasers Treat Pigmented Lesions

Lasers effectively treat pigmented lesions by targeting and breaking down the excess melanin responsible for dark spots and uneven skin tone. The laser emits specific wavelengths of light that are absorbed by the melanin. This light energy fragments the melanin into smaller particles, which are then naturally eliminated by the body’s immune system. This process reduces the appearance of pigmented lesions, resulting in a clearer, more even complexion with minimal discomfort and downtime.

How many treatments do I need?

Pigmented lesions can be quite variable in terms of response to laser treatments. Some types of lesions will be completely gone after one treatment while others may a few (1-3) treatments to adequately treat. Upon first consultation, our laser skin technician and doctor would be able to give you a personalized recommendation and assessment.
