What is Laser Vascular Vein Removal – Single Vein?
Laser vascular vein removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure aimed at eliminating or reducing the appearance of veins using laser technology. At places like 3D Lifestyle Med Spa, this type of treatment typically targets spider veins and smaller varicose veins, which can appear as thin red, blue, or purple lines on the skin.
How does Laser Vascular Vein Removal – Single Vein work?
The treatment involves using a focused beam of light (laser) that specifically targets the pigment in the blood without damaging the surrounding tissues.The laser emits a specific wavelength of light that heats up the hemoglobin in the blood within the vein. This heat causes the vein to collapse and seal shut.Once the targeted vein is closed off, blood is naturally redirected to healthier veins. The sealed vein is then absorbed by the body over time, fading from view.
What can I expect during the treatment?
During a laser vascular vein removal treatment, you can expect a straightforward and relatively comfortable procedure.Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat an area approximately the size of a quarter. The total time of the procedure can vary depending on the size of the area being treated, but most sessions last between 15 to 30 minutes. The laser device is adjusted to the specific settings needed for your vein type and skin. The practitioner will then use the laser to send brief pulses of light through the skin and into the veins. The sensation is often described as a small rubber band snapping against the skin, which can be uncomfortable but is usually not painful.
How many sessions will I need?
Typically, for spider veins, patients might expect to undergo 2 to 5 sessions, with each session spaced several weeks apart to allow for healing and assessment of progress. However, a consultation with a medical professional at the med spa, like 3D Lifestyle Med Spa, can provide a more personalized estimate based on your specific condition and treatment goals. They can assess the veins in question and give a clearer picture of what to expect in terms of treatment length and effectiveness.
