What can I expect the day I receive VBeam Perfecta laser treatment?
VBeam Perfecta is a safe, quick, and easy office procedure that takes 15-30 minutes depending on the areas being treated. For your comfort during the treatment, you may be given a topical or injectable anesthetic. You will be asked to wear eye protection to shield your eyes from the light emitted by the laser. A skin care specialist will glide the laser applicator over the area and deliver chilled air to the skin. As the applicator delivers laser energy in tiny bursts, you will feel a heated prickling sensation and hear a sound that resembles radio static. Once treatment is complete, a nurse will apply a cool gel to the treated area.
