They say red is the colour of attraction and in the case of the excel® V laser this is certainly true. This highly effective laser just loves the colour red, it seeks it out to effectively treat concerns such as redness, broken blood vessels, and sun damage.

Excel® V is a vascular laser treatment, which means it’s been designed to target and specifically treat skin concerns caused by the colour red. It can improve acne marks, broken blood vessels, redness, sun damage and can also be tuned into the colour brown to treat pigmentation and age spots, all resulting in a more even skin colour.
By emitting one specific wavelength of light, which is attracted to the colour red (or sometimes brown), it finds its targets and destroys it leaving the rest of your skin unharmed. For example, when treating broken blood vessels, it seeks them out in the skin, the light is absorbed by the blood in the vessel and converted to heat which destroys it.
