Birthmark reduction

Port Wine Stain (PWS) also referred to as birthmarks that appear reddish in color.
Small to large areas of blood vessels that appear as if wine was spilled on the body and absorbed into the tissue. Treatments are gradual and will require multiple treatments at appropriate treatment levels.

West Coast Laser recommends the following systems for birthmark reduction treatments:

VariLite™
The VariLite™ laser is a complete skin lesion solution available for the treatment of vascular, pigmented and cutaneous lesions while improving the skin texture with its MicroSpot™ photofacial effects.  The VariLite™ is a solid-state, semiconductor-based laser system that offers reliability, true portability, efficient operation and clinical versatility.

Vbeam™
The Vbeam™ 595 nm pulse dye laser has long been considered the "gold standard" for the treatment of vascular lesions and can also be used for the treatment of acne, stretchmarks, keloids, scar reduction, psoriasis and wrinkle reduction treatments. The innovative long pulse durations, up to 40 ms, deliver energy to targeted blood vessels over longer time frames thereby resulting in a more gentle heating effect generating a more uniform coagulation of the targeted vessels. This gentle heating enables the treatment to minimize or eliminate the purpuric response commonly associated with a pulse dye laser treatment.

Ta2 Eraser™
The Ta2 Eraser™ tattoo reduction laser system is proven to reduce tattoos of all types. This innovative technology is based upon alexandrite lasers operating at 755 nm which is the ideal laser for the reduction of blue and green inks. This tattoo reduction laser system can be used as an excellent complement to other tattoo reduction lasers which do not work well on these color inks.

RevLite™
HOYA Con-Bio, a leader in medical lasers designed for tattoo reduction, introduce the newest generation Q-switched Nd:YAG laser technology, the RevLite™. The Medlite C-6™ and the RevLite™ are high powered multi-purpose, multi-wavelength aesthetic devices that can treat a broad spectrum of indications on all skin type patients. The system's EO Q-switched engineering produce very rapid, short pulses of energy that will limit the tissue's exposure to thermal build up and offer safe, fast and effective treatments. The PhotoAcoustic Technology Pulse™ (PTP) allows for 60% more energy than previous generations and allow the physician to use higher fluence levels with larger spot sizes.
The RevLite™ EO Q-switched Nd:YAG laser is built on the same foundation as the popular MedLite™ series of lasers commonly referred to as the "workhorses" of aesthetic medicine for almost two decades. For more than 25 years, HOYA Con-Bio has been a global leader in medical lasers and their systems are respected worldwide.

SmartXide DOT™
DOT Therapy is the newest, state-of-the-art procedure for laser skin resurfacing.  Using the SmartXide DOT™ CO2 laser system will allow the treating physician to take the technology to a new level with standard and fractional delivery methods to customize each treatment area on every patient.  DOT Therapy can be used for fractional laser resurfacing on the face as well as non-facial areas like the neck, decollete and hands to effectively treat sun damage, dyschromia (pigmentation), rhytids (wrinkles), skin laxity and acne scarring.

Unlike other skin resurfacing CO2 lasers, the SmartXide DOT™ laser system is unique because the treating physician is able to selectively control the spacing or "pitch" of the DOTs.  This control allows you to "fractionate" the laser energy over a customized pattern of micron-sized DOTs to maximize or limit the thermal density on the treatment tissue.  The untreated tissue remaining after DOT Therapy promotes faster healing times that can be customized with each patient depending on their schedule.

NaturaLaseQS™
The NaturaLaseQS™ is the only Q-switched Nd:YAG capable of delivering 2 Joules of pulse energy that allows the physician to use a higher fluence with larger spot sizes.  By combining that power with an extremely flat beam profile, physicians are able to deliver energy deeper into the skin with much less damage to superficial tissue layers.  True nanosecond pulse widths make this technology suitable for all skin type patients.  The NaturaLaseQS™ is an incredibly versatile, reliable and well designed laser that delivers multiple treatment options in one system.
