How does the Vbeam Laser work to heal your port wine stains?

The Vbeam produces an intense but gentle burst of light that selectively destroys the blood vessels of port- wine stains, without damaging the surrounding tissue.

What should I expect from the port wine stain laser treatment?

Treatment may consist of multiple sessions done every six to twelve weeks apart. Each individual situation may vary and it is best to discuss yours with our physician.

Will the port wine stain laser treatment hurt?

The DCD (Dynamic Cooling Device) which is built into the laser system, delivers a short burst or spray of cryogen just prior to the laser pulse being delivered. The DCD has been instrumental in reducing pain. In some instances, a topical cream anesthetic can be used. Following the laser treatment, the area may continue to sting slightly or feel warm like a sunburn. A small test area can be performed before the entire area is treated to evaluate your pain tolerance. Most patients tolerate this procedure without any need for anesthesia. Applying ice packs post-operatively can alleviate any discomfort experienced during the procedure.

How long will the port wine stain laser treatment last?

The duration of the port wine stain laser treatment depends on the size of the area you wish to have treated. You will need to discuss this with our physician or nurse performing the treatment at the time of your complimentary initial evaluation.

Is this form of treatment covered by insurance?

In most cases of Port-wine stains are covered by insurance.
