Does V-beam Work for Veins on Side of Nose?

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.

This laser is frequently used to vessels along the side of the nose. Other lasers can also be used including 1064 nm Nd:Yag lasers and 532 nm KTP lasers.  An experienced laser practitioner can help choose the safest and most effective treatment for you.
As always, an in-person consultation with a board certified dermatologist with cosmetic training is the best way to assess your needs and provide medical advice. 

Yes, in my office, we use a variety of treatments to address visible veins either on the face or legs. We might consider using either V-beam or the Alexandrite laser, depending on the individual patient’s needs. With the V-beam there is no pain or downtime.
