Candela Vbeam

Leading the Way to Perfection The Kinder, Gentler Choice With a 20 year proven track record in service worldwide, the Vbeam family of pulsed dye lasers by Candela continues to be the industry's gold standard in treating a range of common vascular conditions such as port wine stains, face and leg veins as well as total skin rejuvenation including the removal of sun and age spots.

The world's most trusted brand of pulsed dye laser is now the most advanced. Manufactured by Candela, one of the world's largest providers of aesthetic lasers to physicians and surgeons for more than two decades, the new, improved Candela Vbeam series of pulsed dye lasers is even more versatile than before. This improved version allows physicians to treat a wider range of skin problems across all skin types at new levels of patient comfort with virtually no downtime. More importantly, the new technology has safe, reproducible results.

The new Candela Vbeam laser is kinder and gentler to the skin with less side effects," explains Board certified dermatologist, Dr. William F. Groff from the La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre in San Diego, California. Dr. Groff has over a decade of experience in laser surgery and over 7 years of experience with the Vbeam range of lasers, "I've been using the new Vbeam laser to treat over 400 patients across a range of skin types including Caucasian, Asian, Hispanic and Indian skin and all of my patients have reported being highly satisfied after treatment," adds Dr. Groff.

To achieve this level of patient satisfaction requires the best technology available and the Vbeam is a revolutionary step forward in aesthetic laser technology. Among the new features that the re-engineered Candela Vbeam offers are:

Virtually pain free treatment

The Vbeam incorporates a Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) that dramatically minimises patient discomfort. Before the laser is fired, the skin is prepared for treatment with a small spray of cryogen gas. This cools the surface of the skin and allows the laser to safely treat the deeper skin layers without harming the skin surface. DCD provides comfortable treatment and eliminates the need for topical anaesthetic.

This action allows the Vbeam to treat all skin types without the scarring and pigmentation problems associated with darker skin types.

Effective removal of brown spots

Especially common in Asian skin, brown spots appear on the face and hands of patients exposed to too much sun as well as older patients. Previously, such brown spots which are also known as age spots, sun spots and liver spots were problematic to treat with cases of hyperpigmentation and bruising after laser treatment. That is now a thing of the past. The Candela Vbeam uses patented compression optics in the handpiece that allows for blemish and bruise free spot removal.

Higher, gentler Power

The new improved Candela Vbeam laser is even more powerful than before yet just as, if not more gentle to the skin. "The heat is distributed more evenly and gently across the duration of each pulse from the laser," says Dr. Groff. This allows for the application of powerful pinpoint energy in a gentle manner and translates to better, more consistent treatment outcomes with reduced chance of bruising to the skin.

Patients who receive treatment get visibly effective results and can walk out the door without any obvious and embarrassing side effects. FDA approved and backed by comprehensive studies, the new Candela Vbeam family of pulsed dye lasers is all about safe, effective and proven results. Now, the world's most sought after brand of pulsed dye laser is finally available in Malaysia.

THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOUR PRACTICE

Designed from the ground up by physicians for physicians, the new Candela Vbeam series is all about choice, flexibility and value for both the patients and your practice. It's about offering the technology you want with the flexibility you need.

The Candela Vbeam range consists of three models - the Aesthetica, the Platinum and the Perfecta. Excellent for specialised applications or new practices, the Aesthetica model is specifically designed for skin rejuvenation, light vascular treatments like diffuse redness and the removal of unwanted brown spots. The Platinum is the next step up and it has the ability to treat a number of vascular lesions such as port wine stains, rosacea, angiomas, facial and leg veins and more.

For the ultimate expression of Candela's Vbeam pulsed dye laser technology, the Perfecta model is it. Capable of the full range of treatments possible in the Aesthetica and Platinum, the Perfecta can do it all and more - from rejuvenation by correcting red and brown skin discolouration and eliminating almost all vascular lesions, and treating indications like warts and psoriasis. Physicians can select the Aesthetica or Platinum to cater to the distinct needs of their practice and upgrade to the Perfecta later when their practice has grown.
