Spider veins aren’t pretty. These unsightly veins often appear on the thigh or lower leg, but can be found anywhere on the leg and can even show up on the face. They are commonly the result of aging or sun damage, but can also occur during pregnancy. Facial spider veins can even result from eating spicy foods. However and wherever spider veins occur, they don’t look good. Vascular reduction is a safe and effective remedy for spider veins.
There’s no need to cope with unsightly spider veins any longer. If you’re considering vascular reduction, Azia Medical Spa would love to help you make your decision.
Vascular reduction is the product of laser technology. We apply a handheld laser to your skin, and the laser light generates heat. This heat causes the blood vessel walls to collapse which cuts off blood flow. The vein is then broken down and absorbed harmlessly into the body.
The vascular reduction procedure causes some mild discomfort, most often described as a series of mild stings. Another observation is that it feels like a rubber band being snapped against the skin. You also feel heat for a brief period after the procedure.
It depends on the size of the area treated. Smaller areas can be treated in three to four minutes, while larger areas can take a half hour or longer. We’ll be able to provide an estimate of treatment time during your initial consultation.
While there’s some variation depending on the size of the area being treated, vascular reduction typically requires a series of treatments to be fully effective. Our team at Azia Medical Spa will work with you to fully understand your goals and develop a treatment plan to help you meet them.
You’ll likely feel some burning after the procedure, but it will result in very little downtime. You’ll be able to resume normal activities very soon after vascular reduction.
Extremely. Vascular reduction occurs when targeted light creates heat in blood vessel walls. This precise procedure results in little to no damage to surrounding cells and tissue.
