What is the Cutera Excel V?
The Cutera Excel V+ is a cutting-edge laser system that combines two wavelengths (532 nm and 1064 nm) to address a wide range of skin concerns. It utilizes laser technology to deliver precise pulses of energy that target specific skin issues effectively. The Excel V+ is known for its versatility and ability to treat both superficial and deep skin lesions.
Using the Excel V laser can help improve the overall texture and tone of the skin by stimulating collagen production. This leads to firmer, smoother skin and a more youthful appearance. The laser system is safe for all skin types and can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands.
During a Cutera Excel V+ treatment, the laser targets the damaged areas of the skin, gradually lightening pigmentation and reducing redness. The process is customizable, allowing your provider to adjust the settings based on your skin concerns and treatment goals.
Skin Conditions the Excel V Addresses
Vascular Lesions and Spider Veins
One of the most popular treatable conditions Excel V laser is highly effective in treating is vascular lesions such as spider veins, angiomas, and bruises. By targeting blood vessels with specific wavelengths, the laser can safely and efficiently break up pigment and reduce the appearance of vascular lesions without affecting the skin’s surface. The results are often visible after just one treatment session, with continued improvement over subsequent sessions.
The laser’s precision allows for targeted treatment, ensuring minimal discomfort and downtime. Patients can resume normal activities immediately after the procedure, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles.
Pigmented Lesions and Sun Damage
The laser’s customizable settings allow for precise treatment of brown spots, freckles, and other pigmentation concerns. By breaking down excess pigment in the skin, the Excel V can help restore a more even skin tone.
The Excel V+ laser’s built-in cooling tip and customizable treatment settings ensure accurate targeting of pigmented areas without impacting surrounding healthy skin. Most patients see noticeable improvement in the appearance of brown spots and sun damage after just a few treatment sessions.

The Excel V+ laser can also target skin conditions such as rosacea, acne, and diffuse redness. By delivering controlled pulses of light energy, the laser can reduce redness and inflammation associated with these conditions. With regular treatments and proper skincare, you’ll begin to see more even skin tone and texture and less redness.

Common FAQs

Many individuals find Excel V+ treatments to be well-tolerated and relatively comfortable, with minimal pain or discomfort during the procedure. The laser’s advanced cooling technology helps minimize sensation on the skin, making the treatment experience more pleasant for patients. There is typically no downtime associated with Excel V + treatments, allowing individuals to resume their normal activities immediately after the session.
While some individuals may experience slight redness or swelling following treatment, these effects are temporary and usually subside within a few hours.
Can Cutera Excel V be used on all skin types?
