Candela Vbeam Laser

The Candela VBeam Laser Vbeam pulsed dye laser is used at Harley Street Injectables to treat persistent redness, visible veins and other vascular‑type marks that don’t respond well to creams alone.

VBeam Laser is often chosen by people with rosacea, thread veins or post‑inflammatory redness who want a clearer, calmer-looking complexion without major downtime.​

The Science Behind Candela Vbeam Laser

Vbeam is a pulsed dye laser set at 595 nm, a wavelength that is strongly taken up by oxyhaemoglobin in blood vessels. When the light energy is absorbed, the vessel heats up and is damaged in a controlled way so the body can gradually break it down and absorb it, which reduces visible redness over time.​

To make treatment more comfortable, the handpiece uses Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) technology that sprays a short burst of cooling mist on the skin before each pulse. This helps protect the surface, lowers the risk of side effects and lets the practitioner use effective settings while keeping the skin as comfortable as possible.​

YOUR Journey to Enhanced Skin

Vbeam Perfecta works on the principle of selective photothermolysis, meaning the laser energy is aimed mainly at blood inside unwanted vessels rather than the surrounding tissue. As the treated vessels are gradually cleared away over the following weeks, redness and vascular marks usually fade, with many patients noticing a change within a week or two of treatment.​

Because the laser fires in short pulses and is paired with cooling, most sessions are described as a series of quick stings or snaps and involve only temporary redness or swelling afterwards. This makes it easier to fit treatment around normal daily plans.​

Benefits of VBEAM LASER

Effective Treatment for Redness & Vascular Concerns

Vbeam can be used on rosacea‑related redness, broken capillaries, spider veins and some red scars or vascular lesions by directly treating the vessels that cause the colour.​

Minimal Discomfort & Downtime

Cooling and careful choice of settings keep most treatments tolerable, and recovery is usually limited to short‑lived redness, mild swelling or occasional bruising.​

Quick & Visible Results

Improvements can often be seen after a single session, with further clearing as the body continues to remove treated vessels over a short series of treatments.​
