Worth re-treating with Vbeam? (Photo)

Question

20 y/o with jawline keloid scarring and hyperpigmentation for 5-6 years. Started with steroid injections to help flatten then moved on to several vbeam and fraxel procedures. Skin has minimally improved and I was wondering if it is worth it to keep doing vbeam or find another treatment.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Vbeam laser is an excellent modality for patients who have rosacea, blushing of the skin, facial and body telangiectasia, spider veins, redness, post surgical redness, and skin flushing. It is a safe procedure that can be used at varying depths to help treat micro blood vessels in the skin. We also use it in our office for facial skin inflammation, keloids, and hypertrophic scarring. It is an important part of scar therapy. Vbeam can be combined with chemical peels and other lasers, but experience with the treatment is essential. The Vbeam laser does not affect deeper tissue. Schedule a consultation with an expert in Vbeam and you will find it to be an excellent modality for many skin types.
