Vein Therapy

Telangiectasia is a condition in which tiny blood vessels become enlarged causing thread-like little red lines or patterns on the skin. These patterns form gradually and in clusters, and are commonly called "spider veins" when found on the legs because of their fine and web-like appearance. Vascular Therapy offers a quick and easy solution with no downtime.

What is Vein Therapy?

Vein Therapy is a laser treatment that targets and eliminates unwanted vascular concerns including broken capillaries, spider veins, facial redness, rosacea, and small cherry angiomas. The laser destroys the veins so that they collapse and disappear from view.

Often found on the face around the nose, chin and across the cheeks, telangiectasia can also appear on the legs and other areas of the body. An incredibly common vascular condition, it has a quick and easy solution: a couple of quick zaps with our laser and these veins become a thing of the past. You no longer have to disguise these areas with makeup or cover up with long dresses or pants in the beautiful summer heat.

Although you might need a few vascular treatments to get the full results, there is no recovery or downtime needed. We recommend patients refrain from excessive sun exposure and require everyone to wear sunscreen daily for at least a month and preferably lifelong.

What It Helps With

Broken Capillaries and Spider Veins

Treats broken capillaries on the face and leg spider veins effectively

Facial Redness & Rosacea

Reduces facial redness and treats rosacea at the vascular level

Cherry Angiomas

Removes small cherry angiomas quickly and effectively

How Vein Therapy Works

The laser is pulsed over the targeted vessels, delivering precise energy that is absorbed by the blood within the vein. This causes the vessel walls to collapse, and the vein is gradually absorbed by the body and disappears from view over the following days and weeks.

The main reason to consider vascular treatment is that the procedure is quick and works very well to eliminate any unwanted vascular vein.

What to Expect

Treatment

Treatment takes 15 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the area treated. The laser is pulsed over the tiny vessels, which feels like quick rubber bands flicking.

Post Treatment

Your skin will be slightly flushed and can be slightly raised similar to "cat scratches" which returns to normal within a few hours. Bruising and swelling may result which usually resolves over a few days to a week.

Results

Improvements are usually long lasting, 12 months or more, but depends on the condition being treated. Sun protection is essential post-treatment.
