Our laser delivers pulses of light energy which cause the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually destroying the vessel which is later reabsorbed by your body.  Blood flow is then redirected to veins deeper below your skin’s surface, where it should be.

Unsightly veins can be removed from all parts of the body.  Small, facial veins can be treated quickly without bruising. Knotty varicose veins are not good candidates.

Often, patients find that one or two treatments are sufficient.  However, the number of treatments necessary depends on the number, color and size of the veins being treated.

Most patients experience a stinging sensation.  Although no local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required, many patients use a topical numbing cream prior to treatment.  Following treatment, the pain is minimal to nonexistent.

Following your treatment, some redness or bruising may occur.  When larger veins are treated, a tan or brownish pigment may persist for a few weeks or months following treatment.  Most patients see significant improvement within two to six weeks following treatment.
