Facial and Leg Vein Treatments

Laser Vein Therapy is the ideal solution for individuals who suffer from unpleasant spider veins on the face or body. These delicate yet unsightly veins can disappear within weeks of treatment, making your face and legs appear years younger, healthier, and more attractive.

Spider veins are veins on the surface of the skin that have a spider web-like appearance. They are very small and superficial veins that appear as a red, purple, or blue network or web on the leg. Clients will see a result just one to three weeks following treatment and may continue to see improvement with multiple treatments. Most people require two to three visits to see the best results.

For better results, patients are to avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, tanning creams and sunless tanning lotions for one week prior to treatment and throughout the course of their laser treatment.
A broad-spectrum (UVA/UVB) sunscreen SPF30 or greater should be applied to the area(s) to be treated whenever exposed to the sun.
Skin should be void of make-up, creams and lotions prior to treatment. Clean skin with 70% alcohol prior to treatment.

Post -Treatment Vein Care

Apply lotion to the area to prevent drying and crusting. Lotion applied following the laser treatment can have a soothing effect. If a crust develops, allow it to fall off naturally. Do not scratch or pick.
Avoid hot baths/whirlpools for 1 week following treatment. Do not shave for 1 to 3 days if blistering and/or crusting occur.
Avoid exposure to the sun. Apply sunscreen with a SPF 30 or greater to the area whenever exposure to the sun in unavoidable.
Avoid exercises that can cause vasodilatation for on week post treatment. Walking is encouraged.
If makeup is allowed, apply and remove it delicately. Excess rubbing can open the area and increase the chance of scarring.
Discomfort, such as swelling or redness (lasting from a few hours to a couple of days), can be relieved with acetaminophen or ice packs.
Please contact the office immediately if the treated area becomes tender or shows signs of infection (pus).
