Guest guest Posted March 13, 2002 Report Share Posted March 13, 2002 Hi all, When having v-beam treatment is it necessary to be flushed at the time.? I ask because I am at my worst after a shower so will not look so bad when I go for treatment. Are the vessels still zapped even though they are not engorged with blood? If it is necessary what do you suggest? I understand Niacin cam bring on a flush. What dosage should be taken and how long before treatment?

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 Hello Rick Thanks for your message about your v-beam treatment. It's good to hear from someone else having treatment at the moment. My face was very swollen for a few days, but has gone down now (5 days after treatment). I'm just left with the bruising from the laser, but even that is fading a little each day. In fact, my face has reacted better to having both cheeks done this time than it did to just having a test patch done 4 months ago. I am hopeful this may improve things at last. Best of luck with your treatment on Monday and I look forward to hearing how you get on.
