Vascular Laser Therapy
in Overland Park, KS

This treatment is designed to rid or lessen vascular areas on the face or body. The vascular laser light is absorbed by hemoglobin - the substance in the blood that gives it a red or purple color. This heats up the blood vessel enough for it to be heat sealed or damaged. Over time the body reabsorbs these damaged vessels.

Treatment addresses leg spider veins, telangiectasia (broken capillaries and facial veins less than 3mm), cherry angiomas, and nevus flammeus (port wine stains) on the face and body.

Each treatment takes between 15-60 minutes depending on the extent of veins. Cryogen cooling air is blown on the area during treatment to minimize discomfort.

• Targets vascular lesions precisely without damaging surrounding skin
• Reduces facial redness and rosacea symptoms
• Clears broken capillaries and spider veins
• Non-invasive - no incisions, no needles
• Results visible after the first treatment

How does vascular laser therapy work?

The vascular laser light is absorbed by hemoglobin, a substance in the blood that gives it a red or purple color. This heats up the blood vessel enough for the vessel to be heat sealed or damaged. Over time the body reabsorbs these damaged vessels, eliminating the visible lesion.

What results can I expect?

Significant reduction of vascular areas under 3mm. You can have immediate results. May need 3-6 sessions total.

How many treatments will I need?

Three to five sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart. Some people are predisposed to having spider veins, so it is possible to develop new ones over time. Spider veins are associated with 'feeder veins,' which are larger underlying reticular veins. Because of this, it is imperative to identify and treat these underlying causative veins to prevent them from recurring.

What should I expect during my treatment?

The laser is applied in 'pulses' to the entire area. Cryogen cooling air is blown on the area during treatment to minimize discomfort. Each treatment takes between 15-60 minutes depending on the extent of veins.

Is there anything to avoid before treatment?

Products such as aspirin or blood thinners can cause bruising - discontinue use 10 days prior if ok with your doctor.

What is the post-treatment care?

The skin above the veins will have a reddish, cat-scratch appearance that generally disappears over the next two days. Bruises from larger veins resolve in 1-2 weeks.

Who should not have this procedure?

If you are pregnant, take aspirin daily or other blood thinning medications, or have a medical condition that prevents your blood from clotting properly, you should not have this procedure.

Contraindications

If you are pregnant, take aspirin daily or other blood thinning medications, or have a medical condition that prevents your blood from clotting properly, you should not have this procedure. Please discuss your medical history at your consultation.
