Vbeam Perfecta, Platinum, Aesthetica Treatment Guidelines
These guidelines were developed from clinical experience and are subject to change as additional experience
is gained. Be sure to inquire with your Candela Sales Representative, Clinical Consultant or visit
MyCandela.com regularly for the latest updates and a comprehensive bibliography list of references/published
articles. Treatment Guidelines do not take the place of the procedures and instructions found in the Operator’s
Manual. FAILURE TO USE THE LASER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH PROCEDURES AND
INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY TO THE OPERATOR, THE PATIENT AND
OTHERS, AS WELL AS DAMAGE TO THE LASER SYSTEM. Follow OSHA and ANSI standards for laser
safety. Protective eyewear must be worn by all persons in the treatment room during laser operation. Perform
User Verification tests as outlined in the Operators Manual at the start of each treatment day and when the
hand piece is changed. Check the delivery system for any damage (i.e.: dropped)
. Discontinue use of your
laser delivery system if you suspect a problem.

Double or triple pulse
depending on the refill of
the vessel.
Use 3x10 on linear vessels.
For vessels which do not
clear immediately: treat first
with the round spot followed
by the 3x10 spot.
Use of shorter pulse
durations will induce
purpura but may clear
vessels faster.
