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. Kimball Crofts is probably the best doctor I have ever been to. He makes you feel like you are his most important patient and will do anything you need (even if it’s Sunday). His staff is also so kind and there are no better nurses than Amy and Andrea!!

He is so caring and thoughtful and is so good to listen to my needs and what I want to accomplish!! He’s is absolutely amazing!! Thank you Dr. Crofts and his amazing team!!
Dr Crofts was one of the first doctors I’ve had that actually showed he really cared about what happened that led me to need his help. His precision was excellent and I’m incredibly grateful on so many levels for how I’m feeling now after getting my implants removed. I’m so happy with the results and feel like me again. Thank you so much Dr Crofts! His nurses were lovely and always kind and on top of it. Highly recommend.
My daughter was Dr Croft’s patient and I was her post-surgery support. He and his staff were amazing to work with. Very thorough, responsive and personable. Andrea couldn’t be a better support and advisor—she made the whole experience so positive!
Dr Crofts and his staff are all so kind and amazing!

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.
