Hi
Sorry if my post below was incoherent. Maybe this will help. With the Vasculight there are 2 heads ( SR for skin redness ) and ( VL for vascular lesions ).

Currently, the RN does one pass with the SR and one pass with the VL.

Can she do one pass with the SR head and the 560 filter

and

a second pass with the SR head and a 590 filter?

Should the pulse duration and the time between pulses be the same with each pass?

Should it be a double pass?

Should the joules be the same. My last treatment the joules were 40 but that seems high according to what I have read.

I know that it is impossible to give exact specifications since every body is different but just some advise on what I have suggested is reasonable

Since she ( the RN ) who does the treatments at the derm's office says that I have verfy few broken capillaries, I am wondering if I need to have the VL pass and that 2 passes with the SR head would be better. But I don't want to burn my skin.

Thanks
Linda
