Laser Hair Removal & Skin Rejuvenation Center offers the most advanced laser treatments for leg and facial veins.
What are spider veins?
Smaller leg veins are often called spider veins, are caused by the dilation of a small group of blood vessels near the skin's surface. They often look like red, blue or purple lines, sunbursts or web patterns. When they occur on the face these spider veins, also called telangiectasias, may be related to chronic sun exposure or exposure to extreme temperatures. They tend to occur on either the nose or cheeks of fair skinned people. Telangiectasias are abnormally dilated vessels very close to the surface of the skin. The most common treatments for veins include laser therapy and it has become the gold standard of treatment. This laser is the most effective on the market, and the results are excellent.
Will I need to take time off of my work and social schedule?
You can expect to go back to normal activities the same day as treated. Wearing compression stockings on the legs is highly recommended after the laser treatment.
How many treatments will I need?
We typically recommend 3-6 treatments depending on the size and location of the vessels. Our advanced technology enables us to safely, easily and effectively use laser to remove spider veins anywhere on the face or body. The laser treatment works by passing light through the skin heating up the blood in the vessel causing thermocoagulation of the vessel. The clogged vessel is then slowly absorbed by the body. Laser spider vein treatment may cause minor bruising which usually improves within a week, but often, recovery is immediate. 3 - 6 treatments may be required to achieve your desired result.
