What is Laser Vein Treatment?

If you're embarrassed by spider veins – those unsightly clusters of red, blue and purple veins that are commonly found on your legs, feet and elsewhere on the body – laser vein treatment may be for you. Used in conjunction with sclerotherapy, the laser vein treatment procedure involves directing a light beam on the veins to seal them off and successfully dissolve them. Safe and efficient, you do not have to worry about damaging any of the surrounding tissue, as the wavelength of the laser is targeted specifically to the pigment in the blood.

Using the most cutting-edge laser technology, Dr. Elizabeth McRae has successfully performed countless laser vein treatments for her patients in Boerne, TX, San Antonio, TX, Fredericksburg, TX, and the surrounding areas. To see these results for yourself, please view our laser vein treatment before and after pictures.

How is Laser Vein Treatment Performed?

If you're concerned about pain, your technician can apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area prior to the procedure. However, one of the best aspects of this procedure is that it is relatively pain-free. Your technician will direct pulses of light energy directly on the spider veins, which may cause a tingling sensation. She will then use a chilled hand piece to cool the skin while the laser is penetrating the veins. Generally, the entire process lasts no more than 20 minutes.

Am I a Good Candidate for Laser Vein Treatment?

If spider veins on your legs, feet, face or anywhere else on the body are causing you to feel self-conscious, you may be a perfect candidate for laser vein treatment. However, keep in mind that laser vein treatment does not treat varicose veins – the larger, more painful veins typically found in the legs. If this is the case, you should discuss other options with your doctor.

What are the Typical Results of Laser Vein Treatment?

Our patients are thrilled with their results following laser vein treatment. Full results are typically evident within four to six weeks after the treatment, and you may need multiple sessions to achieve the best results, depending on the size and number of veins in the treatment area. Once all veins are reabsorbed into the body, you'll be able to show off your smooth, unblemished, sexy legs with pride. We recommend taking a peek at some laser vein treatment before and after pictures before you elect to have this procedure, so you can visualize what your results may look like.
