Excel V

Excel VDevice

A dual-wavelength vascular laser (532nm KTP + 1064nm Nd:YAG) by Cutera (USA), specialized for redness and vascular lesion treatment.

Overview

Excel V uses 532nm KTP and 1064nm Nd:YAG dual wavelengths as a vascular-specialized laser. It treats redness, telangiectasia, hemangioma, rosacea, and vascular dark circles. The Genesis mode (1064nm long-pulse, non-contact) provides skin rejuvenation and toning, making it a versatile platform for both vascular and general dermatological applications.

Mechanism

The 532nm KTP wavelength is highly absorbed by oxyhemoglobin, efficiently targeting superficial vascular lesions. The 1064nm Nd:YAG penetrates deeper for treating deeper or larger vessels. Both wavelengths cause selective photothermolysis of targeted blood vessels: the absorbed energy heats the vessel wall, causing coagulation and vessel closure. The cooled tip protects the epidermis. Genesis mode delivers sub-therapeutic pulses for gentle dermal heating and collagen stimulation.

Effects

Reduction of facial redness and flushing, elimination of telangiectasia and spider veins, hemangioma treatment, rosacea management, vascular dark circle improvement, and skin rejuvenation through Genesis mode.

Duration

Vascular: 3-5 sessions at 3-4 week intervals; Genesis: 5-10 sessions at 1-2 week intervals; maintenance as needed

Recovery

Vascular treatment: mild redness and swelling for 1-3 days; purpura possible with aggressive settings for 5-7 days. Genesis: no downtime. Sun protection recommended after treatment.

Side Effects

Temporary redness, swelling, and purpura (with aggressive vascular treatment). Rarely, blistering or pigment changes. Not all vessels respond equally; multiple sessions typically needed. Rosacea requires ongoing management.

Price Range

100,000-300,000 KRW per session

Target Audience

Those with facial redness, rosacea, telangiectasia, vascular lesions, vascular dark circles, and those seeking comprehensive vascular and skin rejuvenation treatment.
