Some skin issues are more than surface level, especially when they start to affect how you feel about yourself. At Bucay Center for Dermatology & Aesthetics in San Antonio, Dr. Vivian Bucay uses the Lutronic DermaV laser system to treat common concerns like redness and discoloration with a light touch.
Dr. Bucay is a board-certified dermatologist with over 30 years of experience. She works alongside Dr. Rachna Bhandari and Dr. Talia Noorily – also board-certified dermatologists – who share her commitment to thoughtful care. We have convenient locations in the La Casita and Sonterra/Stone Oak areas of San Antonio, Texas.
What Is Lutronic DermaV?
DermaV is a laser system that treats visible skin concerns without damaging the surface. It’s known for being powerful but surprisingly gentle. During treatment, the device delivers quick pulses of light while a built-in cooling system helps keep you comfortable.
Most sessions take around 15 to 30 minutes, and you’re free to go about your day right after, as there is little to no downtime.
Redness & Rosacea
DermaV helps with rosacea and persistent redness by targeting the tiny blood vessels beneath your skin. The laser energy gently heats these vessels, causing them to shrink and fade over time. You’ll eventually notice a more even complexion with less visible flushing.
Spider Veins & Broken Capillaries
Those small, broken veins that show up around your nose, cheeks, or legs can be tough to treat. DermaV uses precise bursts of light to collapse these vessels without affecting healthy skin.
Brown Spots & Sun Damage
Years of sun exposure can lead to freckling or dark spots. DermaV breaks apart the excess pigment using light energy, which helps your body clear it from the skin. Over time, this can smooth out sun-related discoloration.
Pigmentation Irregularities
DermaV is also helpful for melasma and other uneven pigmentation issues. The laser targets the melanin causing the discoloration and helps your body disperse it over time. It’s especially helpful for sensitive skin that doesn’t tolerate harsher treatments.
