Guest guest Posted April 30, 2001 Report Share Posted April 30, 2001 Well today I've seen another doctor who does V-Beam, to get a second opinion. I'm already seein one Derm, who performed my first V-Beam treatment about two weeks ago. To my surprise the Dr I saw today, told me that if there is no brusing with V-Beam that is actually not a very good sign. It's basically " No Pain - No Gain " situation. In order to get rid of the redness , the laser has to destroy enlarged blood vesells , which in turn will cause some temporary brusing. However if there was no brusing then the veselles didnt really get destroyed they only " contracted " . I've had no brusing whatsoever from my first V-Beam and Im starting to doubt whether or not the treatment had any effect on my skin. For the next laser treatment in July, I hope my Dr will " up the dosage " . I dont mind brusing as long as there are some good results down the road. Regards, SC. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
