Pro Yellow Laser

FAQs

Please see our most commonly asked questions below

What kind of results can be achieved?

The aim of Pro Yellow Laser is to help reduce visible redness and create a more even skin tone. The laser will help the skin to look clearer, less flushed and less reactive over time. Capillaries become less visible, and that constant background redness softens. For vascular lesions such as cherry angiomas or spider veins, these can be reduced significantly or resolve completely. Results build gradually with each session rather than appearing overnight. This approach gives more stable, long-term improvement, particularly in conditions such as rosacea.

Who is this treatment suitable and not suitable for?

This treatment is suitable if you have rosacea, persistent redness, flushing, visible capillaries or other vascular lesions. It is also a good option if your skin feels constantly inflamed or sensitive, even when there are no active breakouts. Pro Yellow Laser is suitable for a wide range of skin tones, including darker skin tones, because it selectively targets blood vessels rather than pigment. It is not suitable if you have active skin infections, certain medical conditions or if you are pregnant. If your redness is linked to another underlying condition, this will need to be assessed first.

How long does it last?

Once a blood vessel has been successfully treated, it does not return; however, new vessels can form over time, particularly if you are prone to rosacea or frequent flushing. This is why maintenance treatments may be recommended. Lifestyle factors such as sun exposure, heat and alcohol can influence how long results last.

What is the recovery/downtime?

One of the main advantages of Pro Yellow Laser is the minimal downtime. You may experience some mild redness or warmth immediately after treatment, but this usually settles within a few hours. In some cases, treated vessels may temporarily appear slightly darker before fading. This is part of the normal healing process. Most patients return to normal activities immediately.

What are the side effects and risks?

Side effects are very uncommon when the treatment is performed correctly. Temporary redness and mild swelling can occur. There is a small risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation, although this is significantly lower than with more aggressive laser treatments. As with all laser procedures, proper aftercare and strict sun protection are essential.

How painful is the treatment?

The treatment is generally well tolerated. You will feel a warm, light snapping sensation on the skin. It is not completely painless, but it is far more manageable than more aggressive laser treatments and does not usually require numbing cream. Pain levels vary depending on the area being treated and individual sensitivity.

Duration

Your appointment will be 30 minutes.

Preparing for treatment and aftercare

Keep the skin calm and protected following treatment. Avoid heat exposure such as saunas, hot showers or intense exercise for 24 hours. Daily SPF is essential for protecting the skin and maintaining results.
