Medical Aesthetic device company, Candela has officially launched the Vbeam Prima in the UK.
The device is a pulsed dye laser (PDL) with two wavelengths, 595 nm and 1064 nm, and offers a zoom handpiece that allows practitioners to treat areas between 0.5-12mm. According to Candela, Vbeam Prima can be used to treat a number of indications, including leg veins, vascular lesions, stretch marks, rosacea, warts and wrinkles. Consultant dermatologist Dr Firas Al-Niaimi was the first in the UK to receive the device, and said, “The ability to choose contact cooling enables me to get an effective, comfortable treatment of surface pigment, and in the same treatment session I can now combine 595 mm PDL with 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser system, allowing me to treat superficial vessels and deeper vessels effectively.” VBeam Prima was launched globally in July 2018, and is now available to purchase by medical aesthetic practitioners in the UK and Ireland through Candela.
