Spending time in the sun can feel relaxing and rejuvenating, but it can also have an impact on your skin over time. One common type of skin damage related to long-term sun exposure is redness on the neck and chest, medically known as poikiloderma of civatte (POC). For individuals who wish to even out their skin tone following sun damage, NJ’s Kessel Dermatology offers advanced poikiloderma of civatte treatment using the excel V+™ laser.

Poikiloderma of Civatte Treatment: Excel V+™ Laser Therapy

Redness caused by POC can be very stubborn. While skin discoloration may look better during certain times of the year, this condition will not fade on its own and will ultimately only become more severe with age and additional time spent in the sun. If you’re eager to reduce the appearance of sun damage on your neck and/or chest, here’s how excel V+™ laser treatment can be beneficial:

  • The excel V+™ laser features numerous adjustable wavelength modes, allowing skin care providers to precisely target areas of concern. 
  • Both short and long laser pulses can be delivered by the excel V+™ laser, depending on the specific skin concern. For poikiloderma of civatte treatment, short pulses will likely be administered to improve skin discoloration and rebalance the skin tone.
  • If you’d like to reverse other signs of aging – such as hyperpigmentation or fine lines – you can also expect safe, effective results from the excel V+™ laser.

For those looking to turn back the clock and reveal more youthful, evenly toned skin, laser treatment can be a great option. At Kessel Dermatology, our licensed cosmetic dermatology provider Savy Guthrie is here to help you find the ideal treatment for your unique skin concerns.
