Excel V
Excel V, from Cutera, is a 532 nm and 1064 nm vascular laser; ask which wavelength is used for your redness.
How it works
Excel V is a vascular laser from Cutera that offers 532 nm and 1064 nm wavelengths. These wavelengths are absorbed by blood vessels and hemoglobin, so the laser can target visible vessels and some redness. The 1064 nm wavelength reaches deeper than 532 nm. Results vary, and multiple sessions are common.
Good to know
- Ask which wavelength is planned and what it targets in your skin.
- Clarify the number of sessions and expected spacing.
- Raise tanning, darker skin tone, and blood-thinning medication with the doctor.
- Redness, swelling, and bruising are possible; crusting and pigment change are less common.
Checking a Excel V treatment before you book
Redness has several causes, from rosacea to dilated vessels to inflammation, and treatment depends on which applies. A clinic should explain what it thinks is behind your redness before choosing a laser.
Since Excel V has two wavelengths, ask the doctor why one is preferred and whether both will be used. Clear reasoning tells you the settings were thought through.
Excel V: common questions
Can it remove all visible vessels?

Will I bruise?
Bruising is possible, depending on the settings. Ask what to expect.
Is it for rosacea?
