What is V-Beam Laser
Dr. Crofts is excited to offer Vbeam laser treatments at his Utah County office in Lindon, Utah. The Vbeam Perfecta system can improve the appearance of red scars, rosacea, vascular abnormalities such as facial veins and leg veins, among other skin abnormalities. The Vbeam Perfecta system uses Pulsed Dye Laser (PDL) technology to deliver an intense but gentle burst of light into targeted areas of the skin. There, it’s absorbed by the blood vessels or melanin pigmented areas, removing the targeted imperfections. V-beam laser gives proven results delivered with the best in class technology
The Vbeam laser improves the appearance of:
- Red Scars
- Cherry angiomas
- Bruises
- Red blood vessels (telangiectasia)
- Rosacea

Aesthetica Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr Crofts is a rare find. He is incredibly talented as a surgeon and an amazing human being. We’ve needed his skills on multiple occasions. He’s skills at repairing my son’s crushed hand gave him full use again. We feel very blessed to have him in our lives.
Truly amazing! Can’t say enough about how friendly, knowledgeable and helpful his staff is. As for Dr Crofts himself- He’s very educational, professional and his work is top notch. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a surgeon!
Dr. Crofts is an amazing surgeon! I did a fair amount of research before I visited his office. After meeting him and his staff I knew I was in the best place possible for me. The staff were incredibly supportive, thorough, kind and knowledgeable. Everything was explained to me in detail and the staff answered all my questions. From the first day in the office to post op I have been cared for in the best possible manner. My surgery went very well as did my healing process, and my breasts turned out beautiful! I am so happy with the results and I now have more confidence in my body. Dr Crofts is a gifted plastic surgeon who cares about you as a person. I would strongly recommend him and his staff. They are an incredible team!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Vbeam treatment like?
Most patients are reclining or lying down, depending on the area being treated. The laser will be calibrated and parameters set based on the specific condition being treated.
Are the treatments painful?
Patients often report a warming or tingling sensation during the treatment, although anesthetics are usually not required. After treatment, patients experience a sensation similar to a mild sunburn. During the treatment, skin may receive additional protection through the Dynamic Cooling Device cooling system (DCD™), which delivers a cooling burst of cryogen before the laser pulse is delivered. The DCD cooling increases comfort during treatment and minimizes side effects such as redness.
Are there any side effects?
PDL treatments have been used since the 1980s for the treatment of port wine stains in infants and young children. The DCD cooling goes a long way toward ensuring both the patient’s comfort and the protection of the treated skin. Some patients experience redness immediately after treatment, but it usually goes away in a few hours. Occasionally, a laser bruise called purpura may occur; this usually disappears in three to five days.
How many treatments will I need?
Although most patients notice results right away, others may need a series of treatments for optimal results.
