The CUTERA Excel V is a dual wavelength laser system that can be used with two interchangeable handpieces. The CoolView handpiece is used to treat vascular lesions, unwanted pigmentation and mild to moderate acne. This handpiece is also indicated for permanent hair reduction. The Genesis V handpiece is a non-ablative skin therapy treatment for wrinkles, rosacea, diffuse facial redness and scar reduction.

Laser Genesis is a non-contact laser skin rejuvenation treatment in which the laser quickly warms the skin to stimulate new collagen production, remodeling of existing collagen and reduction of excessive superficial blood vessels if present. With a series of treatments patients may experience firming of the skin, decreased pore size, wrinkle improvement, softening of lip lines and decreased redness of the skin. The treatments do not require anesthesia or downtime. 

The Excel V laser uses a chill tip to rapidly cool the skin before the laser energy is delivered. This minimizes any discomfort and protects the skin. Most patients feel a slight stinging sensation briefly when the energy pulses are delivered.

Patients describe the Genesis V treatment as a warm sensation that is quite relaxing.

There are few side effects with Excel V, although some patients experience mild redness and some swelling at the treatment sites that typically dissipates within a day. Some patients may also experience slight bruising.
After treatment with Genesis V, the skin may appear pink to light red and may feel warm. This generally resolves within 24 to 48 hours.

The majority of patients experience significant improvement of treated areas within several weeks, although the final results may not be seen for months. 

Treatment with Excel V depends on the size, color and thickness of the vascular lesion that will be treated. In many cases, patients see dramatic improvement after a single treatment but optimal results are typically seen after several sessions. Most patients see optimal results with Genesis V after 4 to 6 session but improvement in skin texture and color may be seen after only 1 or 2 treatments. These treatments are typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart.
