V Beam For Facial Redness

Laser Hair Reduction? Or Generation? - Tampa, FL

Judy,

You can always inquire about their training. I asked my tech about hers, and she said she graduated from a laser technician school. I am sure the doctor also over-saw a lot of her treatments for a period of weeks before letting her practice unsupervised.

As for aggressiveness, some people prefer not to have an aggressive treatment due to excessive purpura. The lower the laser setting, the less aggressive the procedure will be, resulting in less dramatic results. Since I was spending the money, I requested a more aggressive treatment.

My second Vbeam treatment was performed by an RN at a plastic surgeon's office in Virginia Beach, and she overlapped the laser treatments creating a more even skine tone. However, my results from Charlotte are the most prominent.

It is not uncommon for a laser technician to perform a treatment, depending on the state's regulations. Some states require you to be a licensed medical professional (M.D., R.N., P.A., etc) while others may just require supervision of a medical doctor. As long as they are trained properly, you'd have nothing to worry about.

My results still show to this day, even though I wish the tech overlapped my treatment.

Hey ndkrn, my second treatment was done by someone different and I had A LOT more swelling because it was a more aggressive treatment. It took a good week for the swelling to subside. My eyes were nearly swollen shut for a few days so keep that in mind if you work or are very sociable.

Shampoo, where have you decided on getting your treatment? My treatment had good results, but to be honest, I think Dr. Rostan's treatment was better even though she did fewer pulses. I still have clearer circles from her treatment. The only thing done differently is that her laser tech, Leigh Anne, used a vibrating tool over the areas just before treatment.

Good luck on your treatment, and be sure to keep me posted!

None at all. I am anxious for another treatment to see if it will really reduce my flushing completely.
