The excel® V+ laser offers the most extensive range of treatment options. The two distinct wavelengths can address more than 20 skin irregularities, including superficial and deep vascular concerns, pigmented lesions, and signs of aging.

This system is safe and appropriate for all skin types.

What is the difference between the excel® V and the excel® V+?

The excel® V+ includes more applications, and has greater cooling which allows for less pain and swelling for patients.

The excel® V+ also adds green genesis therapy treatment capabilities not available on the excel® V.

Green genesis is the same technology as laser genesis but utilizes shorter wavelengths to address skin concerns closer to the surface of the skin. Green genesis is perfect for patients suffering from rosacea and general redness in the face or body.
