Just finished my 2nd treatment on friday.
I have a lot of sun damage from over the years of being outside non stop and no sunscreen, so I started researching laser treatments. Luckily I found a derm nearby who had the vbeam option, so I made an appointment about a month ago to get my first one. I noticed results IMMEDIATELY and it got better as the days went on. After just one treatment I had a huge boost in confidence because a lot of the redness/broken capillaries on my cheeks were gone.
I've done two treatments so far and it's the best money I've ever spent as far as my appearance goes. Almost $900 so far, but sooooooo worth it.
I recommend the vbeam PERFECTA as it's the newest technology that only causes minor redness that disappears in a couple of hours, but uses the same power/energy that would bruise you with the older technology.
That's why I recommended the perfecta model (newest one). It does not cause any bruising and you might be red for a couple hours and then you look back to normal pretty quick. Of course you will have MINOR redness for a couple days buy it's barely even noticeable.
Find a derm that has the perfecta machine and has a lot of experience with vbeam. I took 4 days off of work cause I expected downtime, but I was honestly ready to go back to work just a few hours after the treatment.
