Excel V+ Laser vs IPL: Which Treatment is Right for Your Skin Concerns?

Are you confused about which laser treatment will give you the best results for your skin concerns? You're not alone.

At Epicell, we're constantly asked: "Should I choose Excel V+ or IPL for my pigmentation?"

As Melbourne's leading advanced skincare clinic, we've treated thousands of patients with both technologies. Here's your complete guide to making the right choice.

What is Excel V+ Laser Treatment?

Excel V+ is the latest generation vascular laser that targets:

• Rosacea and facial redness

• Spider veins and broken capillaries

• Pigmentation and sun damage

• Acne scarring

• Skin texture improvement

  
  

Why Excel V+ is superior:

• Dual-wavelength technology (532nm + 1064nm)

• Minimal downtime (most patients return to work same day)

• Suitable for all skin types

• Precise targeting with less damage to surrounding tissue

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Explained

IPL uses broad-spectrum light to treat:

• Sun spots and age spots

• General pigmentation

• Mild rosacea

• Hair removal

• Overall skin rejuvenation
