I have vitiligo. Is V Beam safe for my post-inflammatory erythema?

Our protocol for hyper-erythematous redness uses a combination of lasers and Nanofractional RF to help reduce localized and perfuse hypervascularity in the skin. We begin with an evaluation of the redness and evaluate the cause of the hypervascularity. Treatments with Limelight IPL, Vbeam Perfecta, and Nanofractional RF are then used to reduce the blood vessels and telangiectasia within the skin. Patients benefit from post-treatment application of Elevase Moisture Booster with ceramides.

The causes of vitiligo are often thought to be related to some form of auto immune mechanism.The Vbeam targets both haemoglobin and melanin but the level of the energy used in usual clinical settings should not be high enough to destroy the pigment forming cells to cause hypopigmentation.For added peace of mind, request a patch test on a non prominent area.
