VEIN TREATMENT

Harnessing the Power of Light to Treat Unsightly Veins

What Are Unsightly Veins?
Doctors often refer to unsightly veins as benign vascular lesions. These lesions appear on the surface of the skin as splotches, dots, bulges and spider shapes. They can show up in a variety of colors ranging from red to purple to brown. Sometimes they are caused by weakness in the walls or valves of veins, causing blood to stagnate rather than be circulated. Some vascular lesions are so tiny that they are not visible under normal conditions, and others are quite prominent.

New Treatment Options: YAG Lasers

Breakthrough technology provides non-invasive, gentle treatments for varicose and spider veins as well as facial blood vessels. This new technology utilises a YAG laser to offer the most effective and long-lasting results for the widest range of benign vascular lesions. YAG Laser systems selectively heat and destroy different sized blood vessels at depths below the skin's surface with excellent results. We are now able to treat complex and interwoven networks of large vessels and webs of small capillaries with pinpoint accuracy, eliminating the unwanted veins and sparing the adjacent healthy ones. By delivering the laser light in highly focused pulses, the YAG computer-controlled system allows the skin and healthy surrounding tissues to cool down, avoiding thermal damage. Pain during treatment and side effects afterward are greatly reduced. Most people can immediately return to their normal routines.
