Vbeam® Laser for Redness and Rosacea
At Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, we understand the impact that redness and rosacea can have on your appearance and confidence. That’s why we’re proud to offer Vbeam®, a state-of-the-art pulsed-dye laser treatment that effectively addresses a wide range of skin concerns. Led by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Supriya Tomar, our team is committed to providing exceptional care and delivering remarkable results with this innovative technology.
What is Vbeam®?
Vbeam® is a cutting-edge pulsed-dye laser (PDL) system that has been FDA-approved and used to treat various skin conditions for over 20 years. This advanced laser technology is specifically designed to target vascular and pigmented lesions, making it the gold standard for addressing with redness, rosacea, broken capillaries, angiomas, and other vascular conditions.
At Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, we utilize Vbeam® to effectively treat conditions such as rosacea, spider veins, port-wine stains, sun spots, stretch marks, acne, and keloid scars. The versatility of Vbeam® makes it an invaluable tool in our comprehensive suite of laser treatments, allowing us to provide personalized solutions for our patient’s unique skin concerns.
How Does Vbeam Work?
Vbeam® uses pulsed dye laser (PDL) technology to deliver an intense but gentle burst of light into targeted areas of the skin. This concentrated light energy is absorbed by specific chromophores in the skin, such as hemoglobin in blood vessels or melanin in pigmented areas. The absorbed energy causes these targeted structures to heat up and break down, effectively removing the unwanted imperfections.
During a Vbeam® treatment at Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, our experienced practitioners use the laser device to target specific areas of concern. The procedure is typically well-tolerated, with most patients describing a warming sensation during treatment. To ensure your comfort, we may apply a cooling device or air cooling system to protect the skin’s surface.
One of the key advantages of Vbeam® is its precision. The laser energy is delivered in short pulses, allowing for precise targeting of the affected areas while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues. This results in effective treatment with minimal downtime and side effects.

FAQs
To help you better understand Vbeam® treatments at Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology, we’ve compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions:
The number of treatments required varies depending on your skin concerns and goals. Some patients may achieve full results with a single treatment. However, most patients may require a series of treatments to produce optimal results. Dr. Tomar will assess your skin during your consultation and recommend a personalized treatment plan.
Each pulse of Vbeam is similar to the sensation of a rubber band snap, which is generally well-tolerated. We may use cooling devices or air cooling systems to enhance comfort during the procedure. Anesthetics are usually not required for Vbeam® treatments.
One significant advantage of Vbeam® is its minimal downtime. Most patients can resume their daily activities immediately after treatment. You may experience some redness and swelling for a few hours post-treatment, but this typically subsides quickly. Occasionally, a laser bruise called purpura may occur, which usually disappears within three to five days.
Many patients notice initial improvements immediately following their Vbeam® procedure. However, full results typically develop a week or two after the session as the skin continues to heal and regenerate.
Vbeam® has been clinically proven to be safe and effective for multiple skin types. However, it’s essential to have a thorough consultation with a qualified practitioner like Dr. Tomar to determine if Vbeam® is the best option for your specific skin concerns and type.
The longevity of Vbeam® results depends on several factors, including the condition being treated, the number of treatments received, and the patient’s lifestyle. While vessels or lesions that are eliminated are unlikely to return, new ones may develop over time, potentially requiring additional treatments.
Most insurance carriers do not offer reimbursement for cosmetic and aesthetic procedures. However, some may cover the treatment of disfiguring birthmarks such as hemangiomas or port-wine stains, and some may cover rosacea. We recommend consulting your insurance carrier for details.
Cost depends on the condition and size of the area being treated. To help make Vbeam® affordable and accessible for everyone, Supriya Aesthetic Dermatology offers financing options via CareCredit®. We also accept cash, personal checks, and major credit cards. Contact us today if you have any questions about the cost of Vbeam®.
