Spider Vein Treatment for Face & Legs
Spider veins and reticular veins respond extremely well to laser treatment. We use Nd:YAG 1064nm wavelength to treat leg veins and shallow spider veins found on the face and around nostrils.
Spider Veins
Spider veins are very small veins caused by a dilation of the small venules under the skin. This occurs when the pressure inside the vein increases enough to overcome normal resistance of the vein wall.
Reticular Veins
Reticular Veins are small, bluish-coloured veins that carry blood to the skin venules, therefore are larger & thicker than spider veins. These veins have thin walls and dilate with excessive venous pressure. When this occurs, they become large enough to be unsightly, but are not considered to be varicose veins.

The number of treatments required depends on the size of the vein and your body’s ability to heal. During your consultation, an approximate number of treatments will be recommended, normally 2-3 treatments is enough for good results.
Treatment may vary from 30 minutes to 60 minutes. As a result of treatment, the walls of the veins are damaged by the heat of the laser. The body then begins the healing process. The veins shrink and become less visible or disappear altogether.
There is no downtime involved. You can resume normal activities immediately. Pain is generally mild. Swelling and mild bruising can occur, but most always resolve over time. Limiting sun exposure will greatly minimize the risk of complications.
