Answer: Vbeam can help reduce appearance of this by evening out the skin tone 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.

Answer: Port Wine Stain -- Pulsed Dye Laser, ProYellow Laser, Excel V For treatment of Port Wine Stains, I like the yellow laser the best but pulsed dye or excel V are good alternatives. IPL can work but often has higher recurrence rates. Unfortunately, cost cannot be determined without an in person evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Port wine stains, costs, and outcome Firstly, I can not comment on the costs, as I do not know your insurance policy. In Australia, 6 treatments are subsidised by Medicare per year, and a Medicare threshold applies. See video for the prognosis of their port wine stain in this location. You may need up to 20 treatments, and progress will be slow given the location and your skin type. All the bestDr Davin Lim
