Treatment for Leg Veins

Spider Veins and Reticular Leg Veins Treatment

Noninvasive Laser Approach to Making Leg Veins Disappear

Visible leg veins are a common problem for aging women. Surgical vein removal can leave scarring at the incision point, put clients at risk for infection and involve lengthy recovery times. Even newer, less invasive vein removal procedures still require topical anesthetic to control pain.

Laser leg vein treatment from Palomar® offers you an noninvasive alternative for the clearing of spider veins and reticular veins - with no incision, minimal discomfort and no downtime.

Our patented laser technology treats leg veins with superior comfort while promoting excellent client satisfaction. Our laser leg vein removal uses pulses of laser light at just the right wavelength to constrict the vessels responsible for leg veins, causing the vein to degenerate and visibly disappear.

The laser light passes through the epidermis, only affecting blood vessels, so there is no injury to outer skin. The result? Quick and easy leg vein procedures with reduced side effects and little to no recovery time.

How Leg Vein Treatment Works

Laser treatment for spider and reticular leg veins with Palomar technology uses a 1064nm wavelength laser to send energy into the blood and vessel walls, where it is absorbed by hemoglobin. The hemoglobin is heated by the absorption of energy, and the vessel coagulates and closes off. The constricted vessel then degenerates, and the leg vein is no longer visible from the surface of the skin.

The 1064nm wavelength laser coagulates blood vessels and constricts them, closing them off. The vessel then degenerates, and the visible veins disappear.
