Virginia Advanced Surgical Arts believes that every patient should have access to high-quality treatment and an excellent experience with their healthcare provider.
That is why we use advanced technology like the Ellipse Laser Treatment system. This versatile tool targets various types of vascular lesions to give patients predictable and improved results.
By using the ND:Yag 1064 Modality of the Ellipse Laser Treatment system on the face, head, and neck, our facial cosmetic surgeons can clear these vascular lesions by targeting the blood vessels causing the condition.
As the laser emits a precise wavelength, energy is sent into the blood and vessel walls, where it is absorbed. The red blood cells are then heated, encouraging the targeted vessel to collapse. The targeted blood vessel then deteriorates, and the vascular lesion will disappear from the skin.
What are the Benefits of ND:Yag 1064?
The ND:Yag 1064 is uniquely designed to treat vascular lesions with patient comfort in mind. During treatment, a no-contact patented, integrated SoftCool Technology is used.
Unlike other treatments that use contact cooling, ND:Yag 1064 SoftCool Technology prevents the targeted vessels from constricting during treatment, meaning one treatment session with ND:Yag 1064 is more effective than other laser treatments on the market.
Another benefit of the ND:Yag 1064 is how the diverse handpiece allows us to target more areas of concern.
The controlled zooming ability enables us to change the target area from 1.5-5.0mm, making your treatment flexible and specifically designed to meet your needs. The different handpieces available are:
Circular, for use when treating telangiectasia, reticular vessels, hemangiomas, and more
Semi-circular, for use when treating difficult-to-reach vessels near the eye and clear nail treatments
Circular sapphire, for use when light pressure is needed to isolate the vessel
More than that, patients will truly appreciate the many physical benefits they will gain from treatment with ND:Yag 1064. It works to:
Improve skin tone
Reduce rosacea and thread facial vein
Reduce facial wrinkles and fine lines
Treat sun damage including age spots and brown pigmentation
Firm and tighten the skin
Stimulate new collagen and elastin tissue production
