Laser Vein Removal
Non-surgical, no downtime, no scarring.
Laser therapy is a proven treatment for treating unsightly broken and dilated vessels as well as other unwanted vascular lesions, such as rosacea, port wine stains and other vascular birthmarks. In fact, the latest advances in laser technology have given us a method for removal that is safer, faster and more effective than any previous treatments available.
Laser Vein Treatment works by emitting a specialized light that is passed through the skin and preferentially absorbed by its target, be it an unwanted hair, birthmark, tattoo or in this case, the hemoglobin (the red portion of blood) in the unwanted vessels. The laser causes the vein to break up and disappear. There are several lasers available that work remarkably well in treating unwanted veins but after extensive research, Premier Medical Spa chose our systems for their consistency with all skin types, and because clinical research proved it most effective.
What Are Spider Veins?
Millions of women and men are bothered by spider veins - those small yet unsightly clusters of red, blue or purple veins that most commonly appear on the thighs, calves and ankles. In fact, it's estimated that at least half of the adult female population is plagued with this common cosmetic problem.
What causes varicose and spider veins?
Heredity is the number one factor causing varicose and spider veins. Women are more likely to suffer from varicose veins, especially because of pregnancy and hormonal factors. Pregnancy causes increases in hormone levels and blood volume, which in turn causes veins to enlarge. In addition, the enlarged uterus causes increased pressure on the veins. Varicose veins due to pregnancy may improve within several months after delivery, but never go away. Other predisposing factors include occupations involving prolonged sitting or standing, obesity, trauma, and intense weight training exercising.

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I a candidate for vein treatments?
Treatments are effective for most individuals, including those with darker or tanned skin. Treatments work best on smaller veins. Premier Medical Spa offers complimentary consultation and during your visit, our highly trained professionals will determine if your veins are appropriate for treatment and give you pricing options.
How does the treatment work?
Laser light is delivered through the skin and into the vein. After heating, the vein walls collapse and seal shut. The sealed vein is then broken down and absorbed by the body.
Can you treat unsightly veins on my face?
Yes, laser therapy may be the appropriate treatment method to reduce the appearance of these veins, both on your face and legs.
How Soon Will I See Results?
Because laser vein treatment works by causing the unwanted vein to break up and dissolve, resolution of the unwanted vein will take place over the course of a few weeks.
Is the treatment painful?
Discomfort varies depending on the size and location of the vein. Many describe each laser pulse as feeling like the snap of a rubber band against the skin. As there can be moderate discomfort, your clinician may offer a topical anesthetic to help reduce the pain, the comfort of the patient while delivering optimal results is our top priority.
What can I expect following each treatment?
In some cases, the treated region will be slightly swollen and tender to the touch for a day or two. After treatment you may be asked to avoid heavy exercise and wear sunscreen. Your clinician will provide detailed post treatment instructions during your appointment.
How long do treatments take?
Leg vein sessions vary depending on the size of the treatment area. While some patients may be satisfied after just one treatment, two or more treatments may be needed to achieve desired results.
How long do the results last?
The appearance of existing veins will be diminished or completely eliminated. However, the development of new veins cannot be prevented. If your body has an underlying vascular problem, you may need additional treatments.
Why should I have my leg veins treated with a laser?
Treatments quickly and effectively remove smaller leg veins with little pain or downtime.
Will The Laser Treat all types of Leg Veins?
Smaller leg veins (up to 3 mm) will respond well to our lasers. Sclerotherapy may be more appropriate for treating some leg veins. Our laser technician will assess your specific situation and discuss. Call today to book your complimentary consultation!
