You have no idea how much you have changed my life. I was self-conscious of my face and would never leave the house without layers of foundation. By removing those horrible veins, I feel so much better in myself and even forget to wear makeup sometimes!
Watch one of our doctors perform the VBEAM Laser treatment on a client.
BEWARE CONTAINS FLASHING LIGHTS
No matter how well you look after yourself and your skincare regime, the tissues of the face will begin to sag as you get older, which is why the face can appear aged. If you’re looking to gently reduce aging lines and wrinkles on your face, a VBeam treatment will smooth your skin, giving it a fresh, natural glow. Using intense but gentle bursts of a pulsed-dye laser, VBeam safely treats a multitude of skin conditions such as acne, rosacea, broken veins and Port Wine stains.
It works by isolating problematic blood vessels and heating them until they collapse resulting in a reduction of visual blemish. Collapsed blood vessels are invisible, meaning there is no redness from bruising or other unsightly markings on the surface of your skin afterwards.
We will create a treatment programme that is specially tailored to your needs. Treatment involves 4-6 treatments in a typical scenario, with 1-2 annual clinic visits for maintenance. The laser beam is able to penetrate through the surface of the skin, with zero disruption of the surface and eradicates isolated cells that cause whatever ‘problem’ there is on the skin.
Rosacea
Rosacea is a skin condition that mostly affect women and causes redness on the nose, cheeks, chin and forehead as well as pimples, dry skin, swelling and tiny broken blood vessels.
Acne
Acne breakouts usually have an increased blood supply and so by shutting down these vessels the acnes can respond better to pore cleansing treatments.
Uneven Skin Tone
Uneven skin tone is an umbrella term covering anything from texture issues to redness to hyperpigmentation and is often caused by things beyond your control. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be fixed.
We look forward to welcoming you to Riverbanks Wellness. If you suffer from acne, rosacea, broken veins, or red/brown pigmentation on your face then we’d love to hear from you. VBeam can’t fix everything, but it can do wonders for a red
face and is 100% harm-free.
I have been a client at Riverbanks Clinic for many years and more recently started a course of VBeam with Sonal to improve my rosacea. My course is now finished and my skin vastly improved. The Riverbanks standard is continually high and the results they give, exceed expectations.
The gold standard treatment for treating facial redness. This can be for acne, acne rosacea & broken veins & Port Wine Stains. Also excellent for treating certain types of hyperpigmentation. Can also be used for traumatic bruises.
You may experience mild snapping sensations during your procedure.
Usually after 4-6 sessions.

Before you have any treatments with us here at Riverbanks, one of our doctors will perform a consultation where they will examine your skin, discuss your condition and possible treatments to provide a bespoke treatment plan that's tailored to your specific condition. Every patient has different needs so our tailored approach will ensure you receive the best treatment for you.
We can use bruising and non-bruising modes. Non-bruising modes will take more sessions to reach the end result.
