What are the benefits?
Our advanced technology minimizes the redness and
bruising normally associated with traditional treatments. Best of
all, our technology allows us to treat people of any ethnic origin
and skin type including tanned skin.
How does it work?
The laser energy is absorbed
by the pigment in your blood and collapses the unwanted vein. The
laser energy is delivered through a hand-held device with a cooling
tip that protects your skin.
When will you see results?
The appearance of leg veins
will either dramatically fade or completely disappear during the
treatment. Some vessels may show temporary swelling that will
subside after a few hours to a few days. The redness of the treated
vessels will gradually disappear as the healing process occurs.
This may take between two and eight weeks.
How often can you have it
done?
Most patients see excellent
improvement after just two treatments. Everyone responds
differently to treatments, with some
needing only one treatment and others requiring a third treatment.
You can optimize your results by closely following the post
treatment instructions. The usual treatment interval is eight
weeks.
Are there any side effects?
Immediately following the
procedure you may experience some redness in the treated area. The
redness usually dissipates within one to three days. Also, although
it is not the intended purpose of this particular treatment, hair
growth may be impaired in the treated area.
How long does it take?
Most treatments will take between 15-30 minutes
depending on the size of the area to be treated. Prescribed topical
anesthetics should be applied 30-90 minutes before the treatment
time (this is greatly encouraged to increase your comfort).
