Treatment of spider/varicose veins by laser

The removal of spider and small varicose veins by laser therapy is safe, effective and non-surgical. The laser is applied to the vein to be removed, delivering a series of light pulses to that vein. These pulses are able to target specific blood vessels without harming any surrounding tissue. The blood vessels in the spider veins are gently heated by the light pulses, which cause the blood to clot. This in turn causes the blood vessel to collapse and the blood becomes reabsorbed by the body as part of a natural healing process. The procedure takes just a few minutes and does not involve any incisions to the skin. It is non-invasive treatment and virtually pain free too. The procedure has been described as “a gentle burning sensation along the vein followed by a sharp pinch at the end” as the vein is sealed.

This revolutionary advance in vein removal provides immediate results with no lifestyle interruption. It treats both red and blue, facial and leg veins. No needles. No incisions. No downtime. Watch unsightly leg veins vanish today!

How does Laser Vein Removal work?
The laser produces a highly concentrated beam of light that is attracted by the hemoglobin in the blood vessel. The vessel absorbs the light and is destroyed, but does not rupture or lead to extensive bruising as with older lasers. Because of our lasers deeper wavelength, the light is not absorbed by the skin, but goes directly to the vessel, allowing safe treatment of all skin types without burns or blisters.

How many treatments are required?
The number of treatments varies according to the type and size of the vein. There is typically dramatic improvement with the first treatment. Additional treatments are usually necessary to achieve the complete desired result.
Is laser vein removal painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort or no pain at all. For patients with sensitive skin, a very strong topical anesthetic can be applied to minimize discomfort.

Is it permanent?
Yes! If you are prone to vein development, veins may develop in other areas, but not in the area treated by the laser.
