Facial veins also called capillaries, spider veins, and blood vessels
are easy to treat today. Today's new medical lasers provide safe and
effective non-surgical treatment options for the removal of facial veins.
The new advanced laser treatments allow the delivery of a precise dosage
of energy to each vein. During the treatment, light energy is delivered
through a special laser handpiece to the targeted vein in a series of
brief pulses. The light energy is absorbed by the blood vessels, but
not the surrounding tissue.
The heat absorption causes a coagulation of the blood vessel, which is subsequently
absorbed by the body.
Most laser therapy patients report little discomfort. Some experience a mild
burning sensation when the laser pulses. The number of treatments required varies
with the size and depth of each vein. For maximum long-term resolution, multiple
treatments may be necessary. Treatments may be in three to four week intervals.
