Varicose Vein Questions and Answers, FAQ, Frequently asked questions

Varicose Veins Treatments FAQ

Q: How does the laser leg vein treatment work?

A: Lasers deliver concentrated light in a specific wavelength of the spectrum. The wavelength is engaged by a separate target, such as pigment, blood, or water. The handpiece delivers light pulses which are ideal for targeting leg veins. The light and the pulses warm the blood inside the vein. The heat of the blood affects the vessel lining, which causes the vessel to constrict and fade from view.

Q: What are laser leg vein treatments like? What should I expect after treatment?

A: The treatment provider moves the handpiece across the skin, pulsing it all the while. The pulses will transfer a beam or ray of light into the skin. When light is flashing and gives an audible tone with a mild feeling on the skin will tell you if the handpiece is being pulsed.

Immediately after treatment, you will see any of these three possible outcomes: the vessels will disappear, the vessels will darken, or the vessels will shrink. The neighboring skin may become pink and be somewhat swollen for up to 24 hours. Normally more than one procedure is required to obtain full clearance of veins.

Q: Are these treatments safe? Are they painful?

A: Your provider will go over the risks and benefits of treatment with you. Leg vein treatments are skin-safe & comfortable. The handpiece delivers its energy in one smooth, gentle pulse, to protect the skin from a sharp rise in temperature. In addition, a chilled water supply runs through the handpiece, down to its tip. Since the handpiece tip is in contact with the skin during treatment, your skin is continually cooled, so that you feel little heat from the laser pulses.

Q: What should I expect after treatment?

A: You may experience lingering warmth, tightness, or redness in the treated area, which fades within a few hours of treatment. Because consequently much of the skin is unchanged by the light pulses, there is a swift healing process. Oftentimes, you can obtain treatment and go back to your job, work or to additional activities without much or any recovery time. A series of treatments at 4-6 week intervals may be required to achieve the desired result of smoother, tighter skin in the face, arms, abdomen & other areas. Your treatment provider will be able to give you more information about treatments and expected results.
