Spider Veins

Spider veins are tiny vessels that appear on the surface of the skin and often resemble the sprouting network of a spider’s web. They may be blue, red and purple, and may or may not be accompanied by uncomfortable symptoms like burning and itching. Patients can get spider veins on any part of the body, the most common is on legs but also the face.

How Laser Vein Procedure Works

Laser therapy is a proven, non-invasive and safe treatment for the common blue, red and purple facial and leg veins.

The laser work by emitting light through the skin that is absorbed by the blood in the vessel. The laser injures the vessel wall that causes the vein to break up and disappear.

The laser works over the surface of the skin, eliminating spider veins without needles.The laser headpiece cools and numbs the area where the vessel are being treated reducing discomfort and protecting the skin. Most patients describe the treatment as feeling like a slight pin prick or rubber band snap.

The laser device allows for precise delivery of energy to the affected vein while avoiding surrounding skin or tissue. The process takes just a few minutes to complete and requires minimal downtime afterwards.

The lasers highly focused beam of light can also be used to treat some larger veins, as long as they are not raised above the skin surface. Laser vein therapy is also a great second treatment step, after a larger varicose vein stripping, surgery, or sclerotherapy because it can treat the small vessels which these other procedures cannot.

With laser vein therapy, 2-3 treatments may be necessary depending on the size of the vein.  The treatments are scheduled every 6 to 12 weeks as that is how long it can take the body to absorb the blood vessel. Most treatments do not require compression stockings and only stoppage of vigorous exercise for 1-3 days is needed.
