At Dr. R. Mokbel Clinic we use ND: Yag Laser as we are able to penetrate to certain depths to help treat Thread Veins, Vascular Lesions like Cherry Haemangioma and Venous Lakes.
The Nd: YAG laser is specifically designed to be absorbed and target deeper levels of the dermis to treat vascular lesions by destroying the blood vessel walls and in turn making the blood coagulate. This is then absorbed by the body and removed.
Q. Is the treatment painful?
A. You will experience some discomfort during the laser treatment, however this will subside quickly once the area has been treated.
Q. How many treatments will I need for vascular lesions?
A. Depending on the individual lesions will depend on how many sessions you require to have. You will be able to see results from as little as one session but your therapist may require you to come back for further sessions to get the desired results.
Q. Is the treatment safe?
A. Yes, Nd: YAG is a medical-grade machine and we always ask our clients to come in for a free consultation before we treat to ensure that they are suitable for the treatment.
Q. What aftercare is required following Nd YAG treatments?
A. Avoid Sun exposure for a minimum of 4 weeks and ensure you are wearing SPF. We recommend Heliocare which we stock in clinic.
Q. Is there any downtime?
A. Yes, we say usually a minimum of 48 hours downtime following this treatment.
I saw Dr Mokbel at short notice. Although the preliminary analysis was worrying, her professional judgment and advice was spot on. She arranged a procedure without delay and involved an expert plastic surgeon Dr Dominic Yue. Together they have looked after me, been attentive to my worries and concerns and because of this speedy intervention, I now am well on the way to being restored to good health. The team at Dr Mokbel’s clinics have been warm and welcoming. I highly recommend this practice.
My husband and I first saw Dr Mokbel about 9 months ago for skin screening and mole mapping and have not been disappointed! Her attention to detail, genuine care for her patients and lovely, reassuring manner are a wonderful combination. Add to that her friendly staff and well appointed clinic and we feel blessed to be under her care.
I am delighted with the results of a course of Emerald Laser - I can’t thank the team enough for their help and advice.
I had a wonderful experience at Dr. Ramia Mokbel’s clinic. The space is modern, spotless, and welcoming—creating a calming environment from the moment you walk in. Alice was warm, professional, and made me feel completely at ease from start to finish. Her care and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process. I’m especially thrilled with the results of my Cosmelan peel—the improvement in my skin tone and texture has been amazing. It’s rare to find such a great combination of expertise, kindness, and results. Highly recommended!
