Spider Vein / Vascular

Laser treatment to help eliminate spiders veins and red spots

Spider veins are often a byproduct of pregnancy or overall poor circulation in the legs. They can also worsen through aging or simply genetics. Whatever the cause may be, we can help minimize their appearance. We use a tiny laser to subdermally close off each vein. The vein is then reabsorbed by the body through its natural healing process over the next several weeks.

The laser treatment for veins is quick and with little pain. A topical numbing cream is applied prior to the procedure to help make the treatment as comfortable as possible. Typically, more than one laser session may be needed.

Popular areas of treatment include ankles, legs and around the nose. In addition to spider veins, we can also treat cherry spots and other vascular lesions.
