DermaV is an advanced vascular and pigmentation laser used to treat redness, visible blood vessels and pigmentation, helping to restore a clearer, calmer and more even complexion. It is a versatile treatment for a range of vascular and skin-tone concerns on the face and body.

How it works

The laser delivers precisely targeted wavelengths of light that are absorbed by the haemoglobin in unwanted blood vessels, gently heating and closing them so the body can clear them away. The same principle of selective targeting allows it to break down unwanted pigment, leaving surrounding skin unaffected.

What it can help with

• Facial redness and flushing

• Rosacea

• Visible blood vessels and thread veins

• Acne-related redness

• Facial angiomas and blood vessels

• Vascular and surgical scars

• Stubborn pigmentation, including melasma (following assessment)

• Unwanted hair (laser hair removal)

What to expect

After a consultation and skin assessment, treatment is carried out with cooling for comfort. Most people tolerate it well, and a course is often recommended depending on the concern being treated.

All laser treatments require a patch test on an inconspicuous area beforehand, to check how your skin responds and that the treatment is suitable for you.

Results & longevity

Treated vessels and redness improve over a course of sessions, with vessels often appearing darker before fading. Improvements in tone and clarity build progressively.

Downtime & aftercare

Mild redness is usual for 24 to 48 hours, and some pigmentation or blood vessels may temporarily darken before fading.

Is it right for me?

DermaV suits adults with facial redness, pigmentation, visible blood vessels or vascular scarring, following a consultation and assessment.
