Excel V™ Vascular Laser Lightens Bruising

The Excel laser has become the gold standard in treating many vascular conditions including the ability to safely and effectively treat high pressure vessels, deep veins, and superficial veins on the face for men and women of all skin tones. If you have visible veins or other vascular irregularities, Excel vascular treatments may be the solution. In addition, research has shown that the high power green laser (532 nm) can effectively lighten bruising.

Excel Laser Therapy For Post-procedure Bruising Are You A Candidate?

Excel V laser therapy is safe and effective for all skin tones, including light, dark, and tanned skin. Good candidates for post-procedure bruising treatment have bruising that is darker and longer in duration than is typical (e.g. persisting beyond 10 – 14 days post-procedure).

Will Treatments Hurt?

What Are The Side Effects Of Excel Laser Therapy For Post-procedure Bruising?

There are few side effects with this treatment, although some patients may experience redness and minor swelling at the treatment site. This typically dissipates within a day.

How Soon Will I See Results?

The majority of patients find that visible bruises lighten several shades within minutes of treatment.

How Many Treatments Are Necessary?

The number of treatments depends on the extent of bruising with larger darker bruises likely requiring several treatments. In many cases, patients see dramatic improvement after a single treatment, and many do not require repeat sessions. Patients may also use oral Arnica Montana and Bromelain if not contraindicated. In addition patients may benefit from topical use of Arnica + K Cream.
