At Skin Centre in Tauranga, we understand how frustrating persistent skin redness can be—whether it’s caused by rosacea, broken capillaries, or sun damage. If you’re seeking a safe, effective, and non-invasive solution, the Cutera Excel V+ laser is a state-of-the-art treatment that could transform your skin without the need for downtime.
What is Excel V+ Laser Treatment?
The Excel V+ by Cutera is a powerful and highly adaptable laser system designed to target a broad range of skin conditions. With its dual-wavelength technology (532nm and 1064nm) and Laser Genesis component, Cutera Excel V+ provides precise, customisable treatment for redness, pigmentation, and vascular lesions—all while being safe for a variety of skin tones, including darker complexions that can be more difficult to treat with traditional lasers.
Unlike many conventional treatments that may require extensive recovery, Cutera Excel V+ offers non-invasive skin rejuvenation with minimal to no downtime. It can safely address:
• Facial redness and rosacea
• Spider veins and broken capillaries
• Port wine stains and cherry angiomas
• Pigmented lesions such as sunspots
• Uneven skin tone and mild acne scarring
How Does It Work?
The Cutera Excel V+ uses cutting-edge laser technology to target blood vessels and pigmented areas beneath the skin’s surface. The laser energy heats these areas, causing them to break down naturally over time without harming the surrounding skin. This results in a smoother, clearer, and more evenly toned complexion.
Key features include:
• Precision targeting of vascular and pigmented lesions
• Integrated cooling system for enhanced comfort
• Safe use on all skin types, including those with higher melanin content
• Customisable energy settings to suit individual needs and minimise risk
The addition of Laser Genesis, a low-energy component of the system, works by gently heating the upper dermis to stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture, tone, and quality. This makes it an excellent option for patients with diffuse redness or early signs of ageing, and it can also help with mild acne scarring.
What to Expect During Treatment
At Skin Centre, every Cutera Excel V+ session is carried out by our experienced medical team with your comfort in mind. Here’s what you can expect:
- The treatment area is thoroughly cleansed.
- A clear gel is applied to aid the smooth movement of the laser handpiece.
- Protective goggles are worn to shield the eyes.
- The laser is delivered to the skin in short pulses, with integrated cooling to enhance comfort.
- Post-treatment care includes the application of cool air or ice to reduce any minor swelling or discomfort.
- Some patients may experience temporary redness, slight swelling, or mild bruising, but these effects usually subside within a few days.
Zero Downtime Skin Rejuvenation
One of the most appealing aspects of Cutera Excel V+—particularly the Laser Genesis component—is its ability to deliver visible improvements without any downtime. You’ll leave the clinic looking fresh and rejuvenated, not red or peeling. Many clients return to work or resume their normal activities immediately after their session.
As Laser Genesis stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production, results continue to improve over time. You’ll notice your skin becoming smoother, more even-toned, and visibly healthier with each session.
