Laser Vein Removal

What is Laser Vein Removal?

Laser vein removal uses targeted light energy to heat and collapse unwanted blood vessels. The treated veins are gradually absorbed by the body, leaving clearer, more even skin. It's ideal for spider veins and small superficial veins on both face and legs.

What to Know Before You Go

💡 Pro Tip: Wear compression stockings after treatment as recommended. This helps optimize results and supports the healing process for leg veins.

⚠️ Insider Note: Large varicose veins may require sclerotherapy or surgical treatments rather than laser. A proper vascular assessment during consultation determines the best approach for your specific veins.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is laser vein removal painful?

Most patients describe the sensation as warm pinching or rubber band snaps. Cooling technology during treatment minimizes discomfort—most find it very tolerable without numbing.

How many sessions do I need?

2-4 sessions typically, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Facial veins often clear in 1-2 sessions; leg spider veins usually need 2-3 sessions for significant improvement.

Are results permanent?

Treated veins are permanently eliminated—they don't come back. However, you may develop new spider veins over time due to genetics, sun exposure, hormones, or lifestyle factors.

What's the difference between spider veins and varicose veins?

Spider veins are small, flat, and superficial (red/blue weblike patterns). Varicose veins are larger, raised, bulging, and may require sclerotherapy or surgical treatment.

Can I return to work immediately?

Yes, there's essentially no downtime. You can resume normal activities immediately. Avoid strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours; wear compression stockings if treating leg veins.

Are there side effects?

Temporary redness and mild swelling are common. Treated veins darkening before fading is expected and normal. Burns or permanent pigmentation changes are rare with proper technique.

Who is not a candidate?

Those with deep vein thrombosis history, certain skin conditions, tanned skin, or taking blood thinners should have a thorough consultation before treatment.

Can facial veins be treated?

Yes, facial spider veins and rosacea-related vessels respond excellently to laser treatment. The face often requires only 1-2 sessions for significant improvement.
