How do I know that Laser Vein Reduction is right for me?
- Many factors affect a patient’s candidacy for this treatment, including age and overall health, the extent of your spider or varicose veins, your symptoms, your goals, and what Aleksandra Predota, APRN FNP-C expects your condition to be in the future. The best patient candidates are those with cherry angiomas, matted and superficial vessels, or visible spider veins.
- Scientiphika Med Spa’s state-of-the-art Long Pulsed YAG Laser offers precision technology, and treatments are tailored to match your skin condition and desired result.
- The Long Pulsed YAG Laser produces quick results by delivering energy to the skin, which is absorbed by blood vessels, scars, port wine stains, hemangiomas, and other vascular lesions, typically collapsing the vessels during the treatment session.
- This safe and minimally uncomfortable treatment can eliminate veins quickly and effectively.
What can I expect during my Long Pulsed YAG Vein Reduction treatment?
- During your 15-minute treatment session, laser light will be applied to the skin. It enters the vein, where the energy from the laser is absorbed and the vein walls then collapse and seal shut – eliminating the vein’s appearance on the skin.
- There can be some post-treatment redness and swelling, however, most treatments require little to no downtime and few side effects.
How long before I will see results from my Vein Reduction results?
- It is not uncommon for the veins to collapse during your treatment session, although multiple treatments may be required to achieve a specific desired result. A series of 3 treatments is recommended.
- Veins can be more stubborn to disappear, further down the body. Leg vein resolution typically takes 8 to 12 weeks and at the end of this process, some vessels may be gone while others may be lighter (or not affected based on their condition.
