Cynergy Vascular Lasers

The Cynergy is the most advanced vascular laser on the market today. It combines two laser energies (pulse dye laser and Nd:YAG laser) to achieve greater clearance of broken blood vessels than any other available laser. This laser gently treats redness, rosacea, spider veins and leg veins. Cynergy is one of Dr. Kwan's laser therapy treatment options that is the latest in cosmetic dermatology.
