The
Laser Solution for facial and spider veins. Spider veins on
the face and legs bother millions of people. Spider veins
(or telangiectasias) are red, bluish or purple veins that
can result from sun exposure, use of oral contraception,
hormone therapy, the aging process, and heredity. Advance
Laser technology offers an effective treatment for facial
and spider veins. And we now offer treatment with this
technology in our office. How can this be treated you are
probably asking? Well Spider veins are treated by ultrasound
guided sclerotherapy. This is an office based procedure
where veins are injected with micro puncture technology
using specialized lighting to amplify spider veins and
reticular veins that "feed" the spider veins.
The sclerotherapy solution causes the spider
vein to collapse and fade.

| In this
painful? |

There is some minor discomfort
associated with this laser treatment. Most patients
describe the sensation as a series of rubber bands snaps
to the skin. We can often reduce or eliminate this by
cooling the treated area with an air-cooling device. |

In addition to facial and leg spider
veins, the laser can provide non-invasive skin

always good candidates for laser hair removal, such as
those with darker or tanned skin. |
