It is now possible to get rid of the spider veins with the use of laser treatment. This treatment will improve how you look and it comes with many benefits. The treatment can also be used to treat veins and capillaries on the nose and face.
There are different reasons that cause spider veins like heredity, pregnancy and long periods of standing. If the veins are not treated, they can continue to get enlarged and in the end, they will lead to blood clots and poor wound healing. This is most especially if the spider veins are found on the feet and legs.
How does it work?
The laser vein treatment will target the hemoglobin which is the component of the blood that allows tracing of the blood vessels using laser light pulse. As energy from the laser gets absorbed into the blood vessels, heat will be created so the vessel wall gets destroyed. Veins die and the body clears its tissue away as it clears out a bruise. The treatment using laser will not require any downtime, it carries a low risk and there is no need to use anesthetics. Any person, regardless of the color of the skin, can use the treatment
How long it will take to get results
The response to the treatment is different from one person to another. For some, it may take only a few days and for others, it will take months.
How many treatments you will need
It will depend on the severity and number of spider veins you have. One, two or three treatments may be enough for many patients.
Will the veins come back after the treatment?
When the vein gets destroyed and absorbed by the body, it will be gone completely. However, new spider veins may also develop once again. Whenever there is any new developing vein, it will be treated faster.
How much does the treatment cost?
The cost will be based on the number of veins you have and how long the doctor will take to treat them. Some treatments can only take 15 minutes.
