The ClearV vascular laser in Quebec acts on cutaneous vascular problems by emitting a unique high-power green laser beam, specifically absorbed by abnormal blood vessels in the skin.
ClearV is a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser that treats visible vessels, broken capillaries, still red scars and stretch marks and various red lesions on the skin. It transmits pulses of energy to blood vessels near the skin’s surface to break them down.
By heating these vessels, the laser causes them to collapse and completely close. Approximately 14 days after treatment, the affected vessels are no longer visible. Generally, 1 to 4 sessions may be needed to achieve the desired results. Additional treatments may be recommended to maintain and prolong results.
