At Illuminate Aesthetics Co, we understand the importance of clear and radiant skin.
The fight against skin pigmentation is a common struggle.
Sun exposure, hormonal changes, and even genetics play roles in how our skin behaves. But there’s a powerful ally in this battle: Excel V+.
It’s a laser treatment that’s gaining traction for its precision and effectiveness in reducing unwanted pigmentation and neutralising overall skin tone.
Let’s explore how this advanced technology, offered at Illuminate Aesthetics Co, can help your skin.
What is Excel V+?
Imagine a tool so precise that it can target the exact areas of your skin that need correction without affecting the surrounding tissue.
That’s what Excel V+ does. It’s a laser system that uses two wavelengths to tackle a wide range of skin concerns.
From superficial blemishes to deeper vascular issues, Excel V+ is designed to deliver results safely and effectively.
Common Pigmentation Issues Addressed by Excel V+
At Illuminate Aesthetics Co, we’ve witnessed the Excel V+’s in action.
Pigmentation problems come in various forms, and Excel V+ is equipped to handle many of them. Here’s what it can do for your skin:
- Melasma: Those patchy brown or grey-brown spots that typically appear on the face? Excel V+ can help fade them away.
- Sun Spots: Also known as age spots or liver spots, these can be significantly reduced with targeted laser treatments.
- Uneven Skin Tone: If your skin tone is uneven, Excel V+ can help create a more uniform appearance.
- Rosacea and Redness: For those who struggle with persistent redness, this laser can help minimise the appearance of blood vessels.
- Scarring: Excel V+ can also help in removing certain types of scars, making them less noticeable.
Whether you’re dealing with a lifelong skin issue or something that’s recently appeared, it’s reassuring to know there’s a technology available that can help.

Uncovering the Technology Behind Excel V+
Now, let’s delve a bit deeper into how Excel V+ works. It’s all about the laser technology.
The device uses two wavelengths: 532 nm for superficial issues and 1064 nm for deeper, more stubborn concerns.
These wavelengths are absorbed by the pigmented skin cells or blood vessels, causing them to heat up and disintegrate without harming the surrounding skin.
Here’s a breakdown of the technology:
- The 532 nm wavelength is perfect for treating redness, rosacea, and superficial vascular lesions.
- The 1064 nm wavelength goes deeper to address more significant vascular structures and deeper pigmentation issues.
It’s this dual approach that makes Excel V+ so versatile and effective. Plus, with built-in cooling technology, the treatment is as comfortable as it is efficient.
And remember, while Excel V+ is powerful, it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. Skin type, the extent of pigmentation, and individual health factors all play a role in how effective the treatment will be.
It’s important to consult with a dermatologist or skincare professional to determine if Excel V+ is the right choice for you.
The Excel V+ Experience
Embarking on a journey to clearer skin with Excel V+ is an experience that combines advanced technology with efficiency.
The treatment typically lasts between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the area being treated. It’s effective, and most importantly, tailored to your unique skin concerns.
Step-by-Step Walkthrough of the Treatment Process
The process begins with a thorough consultation to discuss your skin concerns and treatment goals.
On the day of the procedure, the skin is cleansed, and protective eyewear is provided. As the laser glides over the targeted areas, it emits quick pulses of light.
You might feel a sensation similar to the snap of a rubber band against the skin, but the built-in cooling system keeps discomfort to a minimum.

Managing Sensations: What Does Excel V+ Feel Like?
Most patients describe the sensation during Excel V+ treatment as a series of mild pinches. Thanks to the cooling mechanism, any discomfort is typically well-tolerated.
Post-treatment, you may experience some redness and swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, but these side effects usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days.
Ongoing Care and Maintenance Post-Treatment
After your Excel V+ session at Illuminate Aesthetics Co, it’s crucial to follow a tailored skincare routine to maintain the results.
This includes using sunscreen daily, avoiding direct sun exposure, and incorporating products that support skin healing and maintenance.
Protecting Your Results: Post-Treatment Skincare
Here are some post-treatment skincare tips:
- Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher every day, even when it’s cloudy.
- Keep the treated area clean and moisturised to support the healing process.
- Avoid exfoliating or using harsh skincare products until your skin has fully healed.
By adhering to these guidelines, you can help ensure long-lasting results and keep your skin looking its best.
Remember, while Excel V+ can provide remarkable changes, protecting your skin from further damage is essential.
It’s not just about the treatment; it’s about embracing a lifestyle that prioritises skin health.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is Excel V+ Suitable for All Skin Types?
One of the most remarkable aspects of Excel V+ is its versatility.
The treatment is designed to be safe and effective for all skin types, from fair to dark.
However, it’s essential to have a personalised consultation, as the laser settings may vary depending on individual skin colour, type, and the specific condition being treated.
- Individuals with lighter skin tones may be more responsive to lower laser settings.
- Those with darker skin tones can still achieve good results, but may require special attention to minimise the risk of hyperpigmentation or scarring.
Therefore, customisation is key to achieving the best results while maintaining the utmost safety for your skin.
Can Excel V+ Remove All Types of Skin Pigmentation?
Excel V+ is adept at treating a wide range of pigmentation issues, including sun spots, age spots, melasma, and some types of scars.
However, it’s important to note that not all pigmentation is treatable. Some deeper or resistant pigmentation may require a different approach or additional treatments.
During your consultation, your skincare professional will assess your pigmentation and advise on the best course of action.
How Long Do Results from Excel V+ Last?
The longevity of Excel V+ results can be impressive, but it’s not a permanent fix.
Your skin will continue to age, and new pigmentation may develop, especially if you don’t protect your skin from the sun. Here’s what you can expect:
- With proper skincare and sun protection, results can last several months to years.
- Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong the effects.
Remember, the key to lasting results is ongoing care, including sun protection and a healthy skincare routine.
Are There Any Side Effects Associated with Excel V+?
Excel V+ is generally well-tolerated, and side effects are typically minimal. Most commonly, patients may experience:
- Redness and swelling similar to a mild sunburn, which usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of days.
- Rarely, there may be temporary changes in skin pigmentation, particularly for those with darker skin tones.
It’s crucial to choose a reputable and experienced practitioner to minimise the risk of side effects and to ensure that the treatment is administered correctly.
How Does Excel V+ Compare to Other Pigmentation Treatments?
Excel V+ stands out in the realm of pigmentation treatments due to its precision, efficacy, and safety. Here’s how it compares:
- Chemical Peels: While peels can be effective for surface pigmentation, they may not reach the deeper layers that Excel V+ can.
- Microdermabrasion: This is another surface-level treatment that may not be as effective for deeper pigmentation issues.
- Topical Creams: These can be helpful but often require prolonged use and may not offer as dramatic results as Excel V+.
Ultimately, Excel V+ provides a powerful option for those seeking a more immediate and noticeable change in their skin’s pigmentation.
Whether you’re dealing with stubborn sun spots, hormonal melasma, or other pigmentation issues, Excel V+ offers a tailored approach to help you achieve a clearer, more even complexion.
With minimal downtime and discomfort, it’s a convenient option for those looking to support their skin health and appearance.
Always remember to protect and maintain your skin post-treatment to enjoy the full benefits of your investment in Excel V+.
Now that you’re armed with knowledge, you’re one step closer to the radiant skin you deserve.
