Vein Treatment

Laser Facial Vein Treatment

Spider veins, also known as thread veins or broken capillaries, are small varicose veins close to the skin’s surface. They can be blue, red, or purple in color and often look like a spider’s web. While they are generally harmless and usually disappear over time, many people want to get rid of them for cosmetic reasons.

If you’re annoyed at the appearance of visible spider veins on your face, it’s time to experience the power of a laser facial vein treatment at Flawless Med Spa in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This spider vein treatment is an excellent solution for clients who feel self-conscious about the appearance of visible veins, especially those on their nose, cheeks, and even legs.

What is a Laser Facial Vein Treatment (Spider Vein Treatment)?

A laser facial vein treatment uses laser heat energy to penetrate the dermal tissue and break down the damaged visible vein. Over time and with enough spider vein treatments, the vein breaks down entirely and is reabsorbed back into the body. Don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt; in fact, a visible vein is typically a sign that the vein is already damaged or dead, meaning your healthy veins won’t be affected by this treatment.

Flawless has successfully minimized the appearance of spider veins and rosacea symptoms. We’re proud to be among the first Medical Spas to bring the Cynosure Elite Plus and Revlite SI to New Mexico for our laser facial vein treatments.

Am I A Good Candidate For a Laser Facial Vein Treatment?

You’re a good candidate for a spider vein treatment if you’ve been diagnosed with rosacea or you have visible blue, red, or purple veins on your face, nose, or legs.

How Long Does a Typical Treatment Take?

Laser vein removal is customized to each patient, but most treatments take about 30 to 40 minutes to perform.

What Results Will I See*

Results may take time, but you should start to see visible veins and spider veins fade after 2 to 4 treatments.

When should I expect to see results?

Usually, after a laser vein treatment, the veins appear to be less visible. The length of time it takes for your body to reabsorb (break down) a treated vein will depend on the area and size of the vein. It may take 12 weeks for smaller veins to disappear completely. More prominent veins may take 6-9 months to disappear completely.

Should I expect any side effects?

Redness and slight swelling are usually common side effects of laser vein treatment. They look similar to small bug bites and can last up to two days but usually go away sooner. Bruising is a side effect that is more rare, but may occur and usually disappears within 7-10 days.

Will I have any downtime?

Normally, after laser vein treatment, there is no downtime. After your laser vein treatment, we recommend that you avoid hot environments (hot tubs, saunas, hot baths) and high-impact exercise for 48 hours. This is to ensure that your laser treatment has the best results by keeping your veins closed.

Is There Any Downtime?

There’s minimal downtime associated with these treatments, but we do ask you to keep the affected area out of the sun or, at the very least, to wear sunscreen with a high SPF.
