Candela® Pulsed Dye Laser
Our laser skin treatments are used for a variety of skin conditions and improvements.Laser Skin Rejuvenation in Westchester County
The virtually painless pulsed dye laser has a well documented history of safely and effectively treating vascular lesions for over 15 years. It is designed to deliver an intense but gentle burst of laser light to the skin. The laser light is specifically adsorbed by the blood vessels in the vascular lesion. These vessels are gently heated and coagulated. The body reabsorbs the treated blood vessels during the natural healing process.The laser has a unique ability to selectively target the blood vessels of a vascular lesion without adversely affecting the surrounding normal tissue. It is so safe and effective that it has been used successfully for the treatment of infants as young as a few weeks old. The skin is protected during the laser treatment by the Candela® proprietary Dynamic Cooling Device which sprays a cool liquid onto the skin before each laser pulse, cooling the upper layers of skin and providing patients with increased comfort.
