What is Laser Vein Removal?
Laser vein removal is a non-invasive procedure used to treat spider veins. These are visible veins that appear just below the surface of the skin and cause many individuals living with them to feel self-conscious of their legs. They appear blue, red or dark purple veins that may cause discomfort, and not aesthetically pleasing though the area is still noticeable through the skin.
Laser vein removal uses laser technology to deliver targeted bursts of light energy to a vein. The wavelength of light is specifically chosen to be absorbed by the blood vessels but not the surrounding areas. This light heats the blood within the vein, causing the walls of the vein to collapse and seal shut. Over time, the veins will be reabsorbed by the body and fade from view.
Laser Vein Removal Candidates
Individuals who are in reasonably good health, who do not smoke, and who are bothered by spider veins can often benefit from laser vein removal treatment. Individuals who are pregnant or nursing, or those with very large varicose veins, blood clotting disorders, or severe health conditions, may not be ideal candidates.

Minimally Invasive
Laser vein removal is a non-surgical procedure and does not require incisions such as conventional vein stripping surgery. Instead, lasers are used externally to target and close off veins. This reduces the risk of infection and generally involves less discomfort during and after the procedure.
No Downtime Needed
There is no downtime required following laser vein removal, making it an appealing option for those who cannot afford to take significant time off of work or other responsibilities.
Cosmetic and Symptomatic Relief
Not only can laser vein removal improve the appearance of the skin by moving veins, but it can also alleviate the symptoms of discomfort.
