Can the VBeam Improve Skin Texture?

That treatment with the VBeam improves the complexion was an incidental finding in patients who underwent the treatment for birth marks.The laser does heat up the skin, though not to the same extent as, say, the CO2 laser. For the same reason, down time is very much shorter as the skin isn't abated/burnt.I have used the VBeam as a non-ablative alternative for skin rejuvenation. My protocol involves 6 monthly treatment. The results are good for fibre lines and mild to moderate laxity. I probably would not use it to treat deep lines and severely damaged or neglected skin.

In my office, we prefer other types of fractional laser to improve surface texture. The pulsed dye laser can help with redness of the skin. Raffy Karamanoukian MD FACS

Texture is often seen as "color changes" by some patients while others refer to smoothness as texture! Sometimes skin cancers and pre-skin cancers needed to be eliminated to really improve texture.
Here is what Vbeam is really good at!
The Vbeam Laser produces bursts of light that selectively destroy the blood vessels anywhere on the body.
Pulsed dye laser treatment is so safe that it has been used successfully for the treatment of port wine stains in infants and young children. The Vbeam skin laser can also be used to treat rosacea, stretch marks, warts and keloids, or even tiny spider veins on the legs or face.
After applying numbing cream, the laser light is applied to the patient’s skin. Vbeam skin laser treatment is relatively painless and does not require a long healing time. The most common reaction patients experience include just a few hours of mild redness.
Treatment with the Vbeam may consist of multiple treatments, depending upon the condition and needs of the patient’s body. For facial veins, one treatment may be sufficient for clearance (that said, additional treatments are not uncommon). These treatments occur on an average of every 4 weeks depending on the area and type of treatment.
Fraxel laser can also help improve texture.
Fraxel is a unique laser because it has the ability to rejuvenate the skin in a non-invasive, effective fashion with minimal downtime. It can be an ideal treatment for sun damaged skin on the face, neck and chest. In addition to brown marks, it can used to improve scars, stretch marks, fine lines and wrinkles and age spots.
By placing tiny columns of energy into the skin, the Fraxel laser promotes the body’s natural healing response and development of new collagen. The Fraxel laser is used fractionally treating a patient’s skin in specific areas, while leaving some skin unaffected nearby, allowing for an easier and less invasive rejuvenation.
The net result is tighter, smoother, and more radiant skin.
Treatment with the Fraxel laser begins by first using a numbing cream to make the procedure comfortable. Generally three treatments are needed for great results.  Because the process requires new collagen to form, maximum results take few weeks to show. After each treatment there is about a 1 week period of “downtime” where a patient may experience light redness and discoloration in the skin while the skin is undergoing this healing and rejuvenation.

Best of luck!
