Now men and women alike are making unsightly facial and leg veins a thing of the past. No more painful injections! With the most advanced technology, a unique design, and a longer wavelength, we can safely and effectively treat both tiny superficial face veins and deeper blue leg veins on men and women of all skin tones.
How does Laser Vein Therapy work?
The Cutera Laser delivers pulses of light energy which causes the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually destroying the vessel which is later reabsorbed by your body. Blood flow will then be redirected to veins deeper below you skin's surface, where it should be.
Who can be treated?
The Cutera Laser features a unique design and long wavelength that allows treatment of patients of all skin tones. Your physician will advice you if Laser Vein Therapy is right for you.
What types of veins can be treated?
The Cutera Laser can remove unsightly veins from all parts of the body. Small, facial veins (or "telangiectasia") can be treated quickly without bruising or complication. Spider veins and large blue leg veins can also be treated with excellent results. Knotty varicose veins are not good candidates. A careful evaluation with your physician will help you determine which vessels can be treated and the best course of treatment.
How does this compare to Sclerotherapy?
Your doctor will advise you on the best course of action, but many physicians and patients prefer Laser Vein Therapy because there are no painful injections.
What about blood blisters and port wine stains?
Blood blisters or "hemangiomas" respond very well to Laser treatment, usually with just one session. Patients with port wine stains and other vascular lesions who had given up on finding a solution have been overwhelmed by the success of their Laser vascular treatments. Consult your physician for a thorough evaluation.
