| Cutaneous Laser treatments are primarily used to treat the smallest spider veins or broken capillaries in your leg or face. Laser and Pulsed Light treatments are being used as an alternative to or to complement sclerotherapy for small veins. They all work on the same basic principle: a light beam is pulsed onto the veins in order to seal them off, causing them to dissolve. Successful light-based treatment requires adequate heating of the veins. Like sclerotherapy, it takes several treatments to obtain optimal results. Within a few weeks, the spider vein seals and disappears from sight. |
