Cutera Excel V KTP™ 532nm Laser works when the yellow/green laser light is absorbed by blood vessels which become heated and precisely destroyed (selective photothermolysis). Because of this, damage to the skin is minimal and therefore scarring is very uncommon. The 532 nm wavelength is ideal for superficial vascular targets including small telangiectasias, cherry angiomas, diffuse redness and port wine stains.
