Derma V
In Tribeca, NYC
At La Reservé Aesthetics and wellness, derma v gives patients a non-invasive way to address stubborn redness, flushing, superficial veins, and sun-related pigment. The laser platform uses IntelliTone and IntelliTrak technology to deliver energy evenly across the skin. Sessions focus on the face, neck, and décolletage. The goal is a brighter, clearer complexion that fits easily into a busy schedule.
What Is Derma V?
Derma v is an FDA-cleared laser system designed to treat vascular and pigmented skin concerns. It combines vascular and pigment laser technology to target redness, rosacea, visible veins, and sun damage. The device is designed for all Fitzpatrick skin types I through VI, including sensitive and darker skin tones.
What Does Derma V Treat?
Derma V targets redness and pigment in one system. It treats:
-
Rosacea and facial redness
-
Broken capillaries and spider veins
-
Sun spots and age spots
-
Uneven skin tone
-
Red marks left after acne
-
Sun damage on the face and neck
How the Laser Works
Laser energy is absorbed by hemoglobin in unwanted vessels and by melanin in pigmented spots, breaking down these targets while leaving surrounding skin intact. IntelliTone technology spreads energy uniformly for consistent coverage. IntelliTrak helps guide the handpiece so each pass stays even across the treatment area. Used across the full face or neck, this approach can also refine overall tone and texture.
Preparing for Your Laser Session
- Your Initial Skin Assessment
Your first visit centers on your skin goals and a close look at the redness, veins, or spots you want to address. Your provider reviews your health history and skin type to confirm derma v is a good fit. Together, you will map out a treatment plan tailored to your concerns.
- Protecting Skin From the Sun
Limiting sun exposure and tanning in the weeks before treatment helps the laser target only the intended areas. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is strongly encouraged. Arriving with untanned skin supports more predictable results.
- Adjusting Your Skincare Routine
Your provider may ask you to pause certain active ingredients, such as retinoids or exfoliating acids, for a few days beforehand. On the day of your appointment, arrive with clean skin free of makeup and lotions. Sharing your current products helps your provider give specific guidance.
What to Expect During Treatment
- Cleansing and Eye Protection
The treatment area is cleansed to remove oils and residue. Protective eyewear is placed before the laser is used. These steps prepare the skin for even energy delivery.
- Customizing the Laser Settings
Your provider selects settings based on your skin type and whether vessels, pigment, or both are being treated. This customization allows the device to address each concern appropriately. Settings may be adjusted from one area to the next.
- Gliding Passes Over the Skin
The handpiece moves across the skin in smooth passes, guided by IntelliTrak technology for consistent coverage. Most patients describe the sensation as mild warmth with brief snapping. Many sessions are completed within a short appointment window.
- Finishing With Soothing Care
Once the passes are complete, a calming product and sunscreen are applied to the treated skin. Your provider reviews aftercare instructions before you leave so you know how to care for your skin at home.

Recovery and Aftercare
Derma v involves minimal downtime, so most patients resume work and daily activities the same day. Mild pinkness or slight swelling may appear briefly and usually settles quickly. Gentle cleansing and moisturizing keep the skin comfortable in the days that follow, and consistent sunscreen use helps protect your results.
When You Will See Results
Some patients notice brighter skin within days, while treated pigment gradually fades over one to two weeks. Vascular concerns such as redness and small veins often improve progressively over several weeks. A series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart is commonly recommended for fuller correction.

Adults with facial redness, flushing, rosacea, or superficial veins
-
People with sunspots or uneven pigment on the face, neck, or chest
