Laser and light sources are the latest technologies in the treatment of "spider" veins and vascular birthmarks. These treatment options involve no needles or incisions and are effective in eliminating problem vascular lesions without damaging the surrounding skin. Laser/light source therapy may be an appropriate option for treatment of "spider" veins involving the face, trunk and legs and vascular birthmarks such as hemangiomas and port-wine stains. Our laser/light source is effective when treating people with all complexion types. Successful treatment of facial legions may be accomplished with as little as one treatment buy may require two or three treatments. Leg veins usually require multiple treatments. The number of treatments needed to successfully treat vascular birthmarks varies depending on their size and density but usually requires multiple treatments. The treatment is tolerated by most people with minimal discomfort. Moderate redness and swelling of the area treated is expected and usually requires the area being treated to be without sun exposure for four weeks before and after each treatment. Make-up may be applied after facial redness and swelling has subsided. Prescription-gradient compression hose may be necessary for 48 hours after treatment of leg veins.
