In particular, in severe or complicated cases, these injuries can cause troublesome problems with bodily functions such as obstructing vision, breathing or other daily functions...
Associate Professor, Doctor, Doctor Le Thai Van Thanh, Head of the Department of Dermatology - Dermatology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City (UMPH), said that hemangioma is a congenital abnormality that appears early after birth, mainly on the face, scalp, chest, or back. This is a condition of excessive proliferation of blood vessels, a few of which are congenital at birth and the tumor gradually grows in the first years before spontaneously regressing. Hemangioma appears in 3% of newborns and 10% of children within the first year, with the rate of female children being 3 times higher than that of male children. In premature babies, the rate of hemangioma is 22-30%. Depending on the location and size, hemangioma can be deformed, and can even cause abnormal consequences for body function when located in the central nervous system or spine.
Telangiectasia is a condition in which small blood vessels on the skin are dilated, usually harmless but affect aesthetics, especially when appearing on the face, it can easily cause blushing in daily activities. Port wine stains are congenital vascular malformations, while dilated and proliferated capillaries and veins often appear immediately after birth.
Currently, with the advancement of science and technology, the new Vbeam Perfecta laser technology is applied to help treat hemangiomas more safely, effectively, limit recurrence and have fewer complications. Normally, hemangiomas are a very difficult disease to treat, the long treatment process makes many people tired and give up, but when applied with VBeam Perfecta technology, there is a clear improvement in both the area and color of the hemangiomas right after the first treatment.
Vbeam Perfecta is the most modern machine line of Candela, USA with many outstanding advantages.
Vbeam Perfecta is a pulsed dye laser technology with the advantage of generating very high peak energy in a very short time. When irradiated on the skin, the high peak energy pulses will selectively thermally damage the target tissue (blood vessels that need to be affected) under the skin without damaging the surrounding tissue because each Vbeam Perfecta pulse consists of 8 independent micro-pulses, the energy in each pulse is distributed through these micro-pulses, allowing for higher overall energy selection and effective treatment with less erythema and the shortest recovery time, thereby limiting unwanted side effects. This has helped the Vbeam Perfecta laser system become one of the best vascular treatment lasers in the world today.
The new Vbeam Perfecta laser system, which has just been deployed at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, is a type of laser for treating vascular tumors that meets strict standards, both strongly affecting the target tissue, effectively dissolving pigments, and not causing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Vbeam Perfecta is considered the "gold standard" of safety and effectiveness in the treatment of vascular lesions, especially Port Wine Stain, hemangiomas, rosacea... with a wavelength of 595nm, allowing laser energy to affect the vascular skin layer, and with an appropriate pulse width long enough to control the coagulation process but short enough to avoid damaging healthy tissue, along with the epidermal cooling gas system that comes with the machine's handle, the treatment limits the creation of purpura while still achieving optimal treatment results.

Vbeam Perfecta is fully equipped with the patented Dynamic Cooling Device™ (DCD™) cooling system, which cools the skin before each laser pulse to ensure patient comfort throughout the treatment.
In addition, Vbeam Perfecta can also solve almost all other vascular problems such as telangiectasia, hemangiomas, venous lakes, skin redness, pigmented lesions, stretch marks, skin rejuvenation, wrinkle removal, hypertrophic scars and acne scars...
The deployment of the modern Vbeam Perfecta system is a testament to the strength and interest of University Medical Center, Ho Chi Minh City in applying advanced, minimally invasive, safe and effective techniques for patients because Vbeam Perfecta is the most modern machine line of the American company Candela with many outstanding advantages.
Currently, the Department of Dermatology - Dermatology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City provides the best treatment services for vascular abnormalities such as hemangiomas, telangiectasias, port wine stains, etc. With a team of experienced doctors, equipped with many modern laser machines and professional coordination in interdisciplinary areas related to the vascular system from the skin to the internal organs, the Department of Dermatology - Dermatology can optimally resolve vascular abnormalities.
Professor Richard Rox Anderson came to exchange experiences and transfer updated techniques on laser treatment.
In particular, on January 18, 2024, at lecture hall 3A, Professor Richard Rox Anderson, a professor of dermatology at Harvard University, a world-renowned leader in the field of laser treatment of skin diseases, came to exchange experiences and transfer updated techniques on laser vascular treatment with the Department of Dermatology - Dermatology, University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, contributing to improving treatment effectiveness for patients.
