Redness, broken capillaries, rosacea, and visible veins can make your skin appear uneven and difficult to manage. If you’ve struggled with persistent facial redness or vascular skin concerns, the Vbeam Laser offers a safe and effective solution. At AW Plastic Surgery in Portsmouth, NH, our experienced team uses advanced laser technology to help restore a clearer, more even complexion so you can feel confident in your skin again.
What is Vbeam® Laser Treatment?
The Vbeam laser is a pulsed dye laser that targets blood vessels beneath the surface of the skin. It delivers a concentrated beam of light that is absorbed by the pigment in blood vessels, causing them to collapse and gradually be reabsorbed by the body.
Vbeam laser treatments are commonly used to improve:
- Rosacea and facial redness
- Broken capillaries and spider veins
- Cherry angiomas
- Port wine stains
- Red acne scars
- Bruising
Because it specifically targets blood vessels without damaging surrounding tissue, the Vbeam laser is a precise and effective option for improving overall skin tone and clarity. For patients looking to address additional concerns such as sun damage, uneven texture, or fine lines, treatments like HALO Laser Treatment or BBL Laser Therapy may also be recommended as part of a customized treatment plan.
PATIENT TESTIMONIALS
Caroley H.
Dr Wilson and team are exceptional! I recently had a procedure and it exceeded expectations. I live outside of Boston but drove to Portsmouth to see Dr Wilson based on references and reviews. They did not disappoint. They are very professional and all have amazing bed side manners. I plan to go back again soon for something new.
Gale P.
Dr. Wilson called me personally after the surgery to see how I was doing! Who does that today? Anytime I needed to speak to someone in his office they called me back within minutes! His surgical skills are meticulous and he is a perfectionist! I couldn’t be happier.
Melissa T.
Dr. Wilson's attention to detail and commitment to excellence are evident in every aspect of his work. I HIGHLY recommend him! His nurses and staff are very attentive, responsive, and genuinely caring, making the recovery process smooth and stress-free. I'd give more than 5 stars if Google reviews let me.
Who is a Good Candidate for Vbeam Laser Treatments?

- Have visible blood vessels or broken capillaries
- Want a non-invasive treatment with minimal downtime
- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding

During your consultation at our Portsmouth, NH office, our team will evaluate your skin and determine if Vbeam laser treatment is right for your needs.
The Vbeam Laser Treatment Procedure
Your Vbeam laser treatment will be performed by one of our skilled providers to ensure both safety and optimal results. Before the procedure begins, your skin will be gently cleansed and you will be provided with protective eyewear.
The Vbeam device delivers quick pulses of light to the targeted areas while a built-in cooling system helps keep your skin comfortable throughout the treatment. Most patients describe the sensation as a quick snap or mild warmth.
Treatment sessions are typically quick, often lasting 15 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the area being treated. While some patients see improvement after a single session, a series of treatments may be recommended for best results.
Aftercare
After your Vbeam laser treatment, you may experience mild redness or slight swelling in the treated area. In some cases, light bruising may occur, especially when treating deeper vessels. These effects are temporary and typically resolve within a few days.
To support proper healing, we recommend a few simple precautions:
- Wear broad-spectrum sunscreen daily
- Avoid excessive heat, including saunas and hot showers, for 24 to 48 hours
- Use gentle skincare products as your skin heals
Most patients are able to return to normal activities immediately following treatment.
Results
Many patients notice an improvement in redness and visible blood vessels within a few days to a week after treatment. Depending on the condition being treated, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
Over time, you will see clearer, more even-toned skin with a noticeable reduction in redness. With proper skincare and sun protection, your results can be long-lasting. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to keep your skin looking its best.
