Facial Spider Veins No More with Laser Therapy
If you are among the millions of other women (and men) who have spider veins that are easily visible on your face, don't feel lonesome. These tiny reddish-purplish veins are known as telangiestasias and are very common. However, in some cases they can become a real problem when they are prominent in the facial area. There is a quick and easy solution to getting rid of these with a laser treatment.
The laser emits a beam of light which is directed towards the vein, targeted easily by a hand held instrument by the doctor. With energy of the laser, the blood vessel is absorbed but not the tissue around it. The heat from the laser actually coagulates the tiny blood vessel, destroying it where eventually it is returned safely to the body. The laser is a highly technical instrument which is safe, fast and effective.
The treatment lasts only minutes depending on how many blood vessels are to be treated. Repeat treatments are suggested in order to achieve the optimum benefit. It is interesting to note that darker veins are more difficult to remove than pink/reddish ones, but the darker ones can be removed usually with more than one treatment.
There are very minimal, if any side effects to having the laser treatment done. A slight reddening of the skin and some minor swelling and tenderness may ensure but the results are amazing! Your doctor will give you instructions on what to do and not to do after the treatment is done, such as applying extra sunscreen and avoiding sun exposure for a while. Ice can be applied to the area if there is any discomfort.
It is a great way to get rid of the spider veins that are so visible that they cannot be covered up completely by makeup. Even the best and most expensive makeup sometimes will not cover up these pesky little things. Having laser treatment (s) is the best way to rid yourself of these facial spider veins once and for all.
