Learn More About Laser Vein Removal
Laser vein removal is a non-invasive procedure that uses the power of laser energy to gently, yet effectively remove unsightly spider veins on your face or body. Popular treatment areas include the face, legs, breasts, abdomen, and hands. With regular laser vein removal treatments, spider veins can disappear within the year. Dr. Craig uses Candela GentleYAG PRO laser therapy to remove unsightly red, blue, and purple veins (known as spider veins). These veins are often caused by swollen blood vessels that crop up from weight gain/loss, pregnancy, hormonal changes, and/or the aging process. GentleYAG works by delivering beams of laser light energy to penetrate the dermis and break down the pigmentation within the offending veins. Over time, the spider vein disappears, leaving behind smooth, clear skin.
You’re a good candidate for laser vein removal if you have noticeable spider veins on your legs, arms, and even your face. You should be a healthy candidate with realistic expectations about what the procedure can do for you. Dr. Craig will help determine if long-term vein removal with GentleYAG PRO is right for you.
Treatment times vary based on the number of veins being treated. In most cases, laser vein removal can be accomplished in 15-30 minutes. GentleYAG PRO features a unique cooling function to minimize surface temperature and keep you comfortable throughout the treatment process. For moderate spider vein treatment, you can expect to be in and out of the office within the hour.
Once collapsed, it can take some time for damaged veins to be reabsorbed into the body. Most patients see an optimal outcome after their final laser vein removal procedure. A series of treatments may be necessary to address moderate to severe spider veins on the legs and calves.
There isn’t any downtime needed with laser vein removal. You can schedule your treatment during your lunch break or in between running errands. However, patients will need to wear sunscreen immediately after treatment and avoid the sun whenever possible. Some patients will experience redness and swelling after a laser hair removal session. Adverse side effects disappear within the first week after treatment.
