VersaPulse
Today’s advanced laser technology allows
your doctor to remove moles, birthmarks and other benign
lesions in a few minutes without leaving any scars. The
Belo Medical Group has the most complete range of medical
lasers in the Philippines. The VersaPulse laser contains
4 lasers which can remove various lesions. The whole system
is comprised of 3 pigment lasers (Nd: YAG532, QSNd: D64,
QS Alexandrite 755) and 1 vascular laser (KIP). The QS pigment
are ideal for removing freckles, melasma, brown and black
birthmarks and multicolored tattoos; while KIP laser removes
unwanted veins, red and hypertrophic scars, keloids and
vascular birthmarks. |
How do the various lasers of the VersaPulse work?
The 4 lasers in the VersaPulse system work by looking
for their target cell whether it be hemoglobin on the blood vessel
or a dark pigmented lesion and totally sparing the overlying skin.
This means that the unwanted marks are removed without harming
normal skin.

the treatment but is mostly tolerable. Some patients say they
feel a slight sting, like the snap of a rubber band on the skin,
followed by the feeling of sunburn. Many treatments do not require
anesthetics. However, some patients feel more comfortable with
a local numbing agent like ice. For some patients, a local anesthesia
may be beneficial. Most treatments do not require incisions or
injections. A special “chilled tip” may also be used
to cool the skin during the treatment.
