Unsightly veins can be easily treated with advanced lasers that are non-invasive and safely treat facial, leg, and spider veins without injections or surgery.
Spider veins (telangiectasias) may appear as red, blue or purple in color and most often occur as we grow older, and as a result of sun exposure, hormone therapy, or the use of oral contraceptives.
Here are the most frequently asked questions:
What causes unwanted veins?
Red, blue or purple leg and facial veins can be a result of sun exposure, use of oral contraception, hormone therapy, age or genetics.
How does laser treatment work?
A cosmetic laser emits a prescribed dose of energy to the vein. The laser “selectively” targets the problem veins while sparing surrounding areas. After treatment, the vessel willnaturally disappear.
How many treatments are required?
Typically only one or two treatments are required and results can be seen in 3–4 weeks. Treatment time usually varies between 10 and 20 minutes, depending on the size of the area treated.
Does it hurt?
The treatment causes only minimal discomfort. Any redness or swelling should be gone within a day and you’ll be able to resume normal activities immediately.
