What is the VBeam Perfecta?
VBeam Perfecta by Candela is a next-generation pulsed-dye laser (PDL) designed to treat vascular and pigmented skin conditions. It delivers controlled pulses of light energy absorbed by hemoglobin in red blood cells, collapsing unwanted vessels while leaving surrounding tissue unharmed. This process reduces redness, visible facial veins, and inflammation while stimulating collagen, elastic fiber, and hyaluronic acid production for smoother, more even skin.

5/5 STARS 
I trust Farzaneh Momeni completely with my skin. She is by far the best clinical aesthetician I’ve ever known. My skin has improved dramatically since I began monthly facials with her. Her treatments are 100% results-driven so if this is what you seek, look no further. Also, the entire Team at West Dermatology are top-notch. They’re always friendly, professional, & helpful, & greet everyone with a smile. 10 Stars all around!
My new regular cosmetic dermatology office. Dr Zubair is amazing and really patient with me. He has helped me over the last year with keloid scar removal, jaw Botox, and full facial acne scar treatment (ultra clear). The office is clean and the nursing/medical assistant staff is accommodating on all levels. I will always recommend this office and Dr Zubair to friends and family.
Most professional and most impressive! The service from the physicians to office staff is superb!
I live in Orange County and drove all the way out to see Dr. Wu because a friend of mine referred him (she had amazing results from her face and neck procedure). Dr. Wu is truly an artist! He made me feel extremely comfortable during my procedure. I was anxious when I got there, but he (and his staff) have such great energy and are so very kind and gentle that you can't help but feel at ease! The office was immaculate and they adhered to covid rules (sanitizing, temp checks, masks). This is my go-to place from now on and Dr. Wu is my go-to guy! Can't wait to see my final results! Thank you Phyllis (pre-op) for being so wonderful and informative! You were so very helpful and kind! I'll definitely be back!
Leysin and the entire team at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology are fantastic. They are professional, caring and communicative. The laser treatment was comfortable, efficient and effective! I highly recommend this practice. I definitely will come back and recommend her and Cosmetic Laser Dermatology to my family and friends.
Dr. Goldman is amazing! I came here for my permanent eyeliner removal (which is not offered anywhere near me), and they are completely removed in just one session. They use a special contact lens to protect your eyes from the laser, and there are no damages to my eyelashes. The healing was also nice and smooth. They have everything you need. I live almost 3 hours away, but it was totally worth the trip. For anyone who is looking to remove their permanent makeup, this is the right place to go :)-
Dr. Butterwick is fantastic, all of her team as well. They make sure your experience is pleasant and painless as possible. My tattoo removal and my injectables look amazing. I highly recommend her for any skin treatment.
Cosmetic Laser Dermatology was recommended to me by my dermatologist. He recommended Dr. Monica Boen. I'm so glad I took his recommendation. Everyone here at Cosmetic Laser Dermatology was super nice and friendly. Very welcoming. I came here for hair removal treatment. I did 4 sessions with Dr. Boen. Dr. Boen made me feel so comfortable and at ease when I talked to her. She explained everything before she did my treatment. I loved that. She was really easy to talk to. I definitely will come back and recommend her and Cosmetic Laser Dermatology to my family and friends.
This office is awesome. My visit today was with Dr. Groff. His bed side manner is so fun and welcoming. He understood my concerns and recommended a treatment plan that I feel was reasonable. I love his staff! They take there time to make sure you understand the treatment and after care. Everyone in the office, from the front desk to the nurses in the back, are so friendly and beautiful. They are very prompt and I trust my care with CLD. I can't wait for my next visit. See you guys in a few weeks!
"Dr. Sabrina Fabi is genius! Her technique is unlike anyone, her eye is precise, and her kindness and caring manner comes from the depth of her soul. She's simply brilliant! It's no wonder people travel the country just to be treated by her."
I wish I could give them 10 stars! I had such an awesome experience for my first visit and I am referring everyone I know to this office. From the super friendly staff to the state of the art procedures, they are the cream of the crop.
“I came to participate in a research study. All of the Doctors and staff at C.L. Dermatology are very professional, warm and friendly. All our my needs were anticipated and the hospitality of this office is like a five star hotel.”

Treatments That Work Well with VBeam Perfecta
VBeam Perfecta delivers exceptional results on its own, but many patients achieve even more comprehensive rejuvenation when combined with other laser procedures:
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
Combine VBeam Perfecta with IPL to address both vascular and pigmented concerns simultaneously. While VBeam targets redness and visible vessels, IPL eliminates brown spots, sun damage, and uneven skin tone for complete photorejuvenation.
Fraxel Dual
Pair VBeam Perfecta with Fraxel Dual to address multiple layers of skin damage. Fraxel improves texture, pigmentation, and fine lines through collagen and elastic fiber stimulation, while VBeam eliminates redness and visible vessels for complete facial rejuvenation.
Alexandrite TriVantage
VBeam Perfecta and Alexandrite lasers work synergistically to treat both vascular and pigmented lesions. This powerful combination eliminates age spots, sun damage, and broken capillaries in a comprehensive treatment approach.
UltraClear
UltraClear can address multiple skin concerns across all skin types, including Asian and darker skin tones. Pairing these two treatments can help treat vascular concerns alongside texture irregularities and pigmentation for comprehensive results.
ResurFX
Pair VBeam Perfecta with ResurFX for comprehensive skin renewal. ResurFX stimulates collagen, elastic fiber, and hyaluronic acid production while improving texture, and VBeam addresses redness and visible vessels—creating smoother, clearer, and more refined skin.

VBeam Perfecta FAQs
VBeam Perfecta targets visible spider veins, dilated capillaries of the face, neck, chest, and legs, diffuse redness due to rosacea and other skin conditions, acne and acne scars, birthmarks, cherry angiomas, telangiectasia, port wine stains, some scars and stretch marks, and some types of hyperpigmentation.
VBeam Perfecta is a pulsed dye laser that emits a beam of light absorbed by hemoglobin within red blood cells in vessels near the skin surface. As this molecule collects the laser energy, the red blood cells heat up, destroying undesirable capillaries and reducing diffuse redness without damaging surrounding skin and tissue. Treated veins are reabsorbed by the body, leaving clearer skin behind.
VBeam Perfecta is FDA-cleared and extremely safe. Its innovative cooling systems help improve comfort and protect your skin during treatment. VBeam Perfecta is ideal for men and women experiencing vascular skin conditions such as rosacea, broken capillaries, redness, birthmarks, or spider veins on the face. Your board-certified dermatologist will evaluate your specific skin type and concerns during consultation.
Results typically appear within two weeks and will continue to improve over the next few months. After your treatment, you can expect less redness and flushing and the reduction of broken capillaries and veins. Many patients also experience smooth and glowing skin, which conveys a rested, youthful appearance. Individual results may vary.
Additional treatments may be recommended for best possible results. The number of sessions needed depends on the severity of your vascular condition and your specific treatment goals. Your dermatologist will create a customized treatment plan during your consultation.
The treatment takes 15 minutes or less, depending on the areas treated and number of pulses used. You’ll experience a brief sensation of heat/sunburn immediately following treatment and possible redness and mild swelling for 1-2 days afterward. Bruising may also occur but typically resolves within 3-10 days. Applying ice packs immediately following the process will help quickly alleviate discomfort and minimize post-treatment swelling.
Yes. Our board-certified dermatologists frequently combine VBeam Perfecta with IPL, Fraxel Dual, Alexandrite TriVantage, UltraClear, ResurFX, and Clear+Brilliant to enhance results and support comprehensive skin rejuvenation. VBeam Perfecta is also a key component of our proprietary Take5 treatment protocol. Additionally, VBeam can be combined with neuromodulators like Botox Cosmetic and Dysport, biostimulators like Sculptra and Radiesse.
Some patients report feeling a slight sting or sensation of heat during the process, often described as a rubber band “snapping” against the skin. However, VBeam Perfecta uses innovative cooling systems to help improve your comfort and protect your skin throughout the procedure.
