WHAT IS LASER VEIN REMOVAL?

Typically located on the face and legs, spider veins are little blood vessels that branch and become visible underneath the skin. Caused by many factors, like age and genetics, spider veins may be blue, purple, and red, which makes them hard to hide. As these veins typically get worse over the years and lead to stronger visibility, it is smart to get help when they first appear.

To minimize the look of veins on the body and face, Contoura Facial Plastic Surgery performs nonsurgical laser vein removal sessions for Ponte Vedra Beach, FL women and men. At your initial consultation for laser vein removal Jacksonville plastic surgeon, Dr. Roberto Garcia can develop a customized plan to meet your needs and goals for your laser vein reduction treatment.

HOW DOES LASER VEIN REMOVAL WORK?

Laser vein removal sessions are done in around 20 – 40 minutes based on the number of areas treated. For your procedure, you will be asked to relax in a reclined position in one of our treatment rooms as the skin is prepared. At your request, a local numbing cream may be used before the session to minimize any discomfort.

The laser is passed across the skin so the wavelengths can reach the spider veins with multiple pulses that don't affect the skin. The blood vessel takes in the energy of the laser, which collapses the wall of the vessel. You will be allowed to leave as soon as you feel comfortable to get back to your regular day.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER LASER VEIN REMOVAL
