Eliminate Unwanted Vascular Lesions

Laser vein treatment is a non-invasive procedure that uses advanced 1064nm yag laser technology to diminish the appearance of spider veins and other unwanted veins on the face, legs, and body. During the treatment, the Elite+ device delivers laser energy into the targeted veins, causing them to collapse and eventually fade away. The procedure is virtually painless and requires no downtime, allowing patients to resume their daily activities immediately. With laser vein treatment, you can achieve smoother, clearer skin.

Laser Vein Treatment Corrects:

  • Spider veins
  • Broken capillaries
  • Rosacea-related redness
  • Cherry angiomas (red moles)
  • Venous lakes (blue or purple bumps on lips or face)
  • Port wine stains
  • Hemangiomas (red birthmarks)

The Science Behind Laser Vein Treatment

Laser vein treatment targets the hemoglobin in the blood vessels that make up unwanted veins. The Elite+ device emits laser energy in a specific wavelength absorbed by the hemoglobin, causing the blood vessel walls to heat up and collapse.

Over time, the body reabsorbs the damaged blood vessels, leaving behind smoother, clearer skin. The Elite+ device also has a cooling feature that minimizes discomfort and protects the skin.

Your Complete Laser Vein Treatment Experience

Preparation
To prepare for your laser vein treatment, avoid direct sun exposure and self-tanning products for at least two weeks before your appointment. It’s also recommended to avoid blood thinners and alcohol in the days leading up to your treatment. Wear comfortable clothing and plan for a brief consultation with your provider before treatment.

Treatment
During your laser vein treatment session, you’ll lie comfortably while your provider uses the Elite+ device to target the unwanted veins on your skin. The device emits laser energy, which causes the veins to collapse and fade away over time. The treatment is quick and effective, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately.

Side Effects
While laser vein treatment is safe and effective, some patients may experience minor side effects, such as redness, swelling, or bruising in the treated area. These side effects are typically mild and subside within a few days. Your provider will discuss potential risks or side effects during your consultation.

Recovery
The downtime and recovery process after laser vein treatment is minimal. You can resume your daily activities immediately after treatment. It’s important to avoid direct sun exposure and self-tanning products for at least two weeks after treatment and to follow any other post-treatment instructions provided by your provider.

Results
You may notice some immediate improvement after laser vein treatment. However, the full results may take a few weeks to become visible. The results are long-lasting, and the removed spider veins can’t return. But you can still develop new spider veins and vascular lesions.

Frequency
The number of treatments needed for optimal results depends on the size and severity of the veins being treated. Most patients require 1-3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Once the spider veins are removed, they can’t return. But you can still develop new spider veins over time, for which you may need additional sessions.
