VBeam best for redness but can improve skin texture
VBeam laser treatments are best for treating red lesions (broken blood vessels, scars, rosacea). But a nice side effect of treatment is improvement in skin texture. If you want to specifically target textural irregularities on your skin, fraxel or fractionated CO2 lasers would be more effective.

VBeam will not improve skin texture much, works best for treating redness
The VBeam will not improve your skin texture that much. The VBeam is best for treating redness from rosacea and broken capillaries on the face. It also works well for:
Vericose veins on the legs
Thick red scars
Some warts.

Vbeam great for skin texture
The Vbeam pulsed dye laser is primarily used to treat red things - scars, redness on the face, neck and chest, red birthmarks, rosacea, veins. Skin improvement is often noted after treatment with the VBeam laser and is a very favorable consequence. I sometimes use the Vbeam for the texture effects alone - including my own skin! I call this the Vbeam "facial" or "laser facial" and the benefits can be significant. Usually a minimum of 3 treatments are needed initially to...
