Laser Vein Therapy
Spider Veins, or telangiectasias, are those small red, blue and purple blood vessels that appear most frequently on the face and thighs.
Varicose Veins are usually larger than ¼ inch in diameter and may appear raised with a bluish color. They may also be related to more serious vein disorders and require a careful evaluation by your doctor prior to treatment.
SkinRenewKs laser and IPL systems provide safe and effective non-surgical treatment options for the removal of unsightly spider and reticular veins. We use ultrasound technology to assist with locating the deeper veins. We utilize the Nd:YAG laser to treat unwanted red and blue vessels by delivering a precise dosage of energy to each vein. The light energy is absorbed by the blood vessels, but not the surrounding tissue. This heat absorption causes a coagulation of the blood vessel, which is subsequently absorbed by your body.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect?
First, we identify the veins to be treated. We use ultrasound technology to assist in locating the veins and where the lead veins are. We then proceed to deliver pulses of laser energy along the length of the vessel, larger veins first. The energy causes the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually destroying the vessels, which are then absorbed by your body. Most laser therapy patients report little discomfort. Some experience a mild burning sensation when we pulse the laser.
Bruises around the treated areas usually disappear after the first week. A tan or brownish pigment may persist for a few weeks when larger veins are involved. While each vein may require several pulses from the laser, most will disappear in two to eight weeks. Key to success with laser leg vein therapy include the avoidance of hot baths and strenuous exercise, and may include the short term use of compression stockings.
Patients are generally encouraged to resume most normal activities immediately. We do ask that you refrain from vigorous activities for the first 24 hours. Although your final results may not be apparent for several months, you'll enjoy the comfort and the look of legs without unsightly red, blue and purple veins.
How many treatments will I need?
The majority of the treated vessels will be gone for good with one or two treatments. Treatments are spaced 10-12 weeks apart. For the maximum long-term resolution, one or two additional treatments may be necessary. However, if new veins appear, additional treatments are generally required for optimum results.
