Laser Vein and Lesion Removal in Boise, ID
What Is Laser Vein and Lesion Treatment?
Usually located on the legs and face, spider veins are small, branching blood vessels that are visible underneath the skin. Caused by age, genetics, and other factors, spider veins may be red, purple, and blue, which makes them difficult to hide. As spider veins typically progress over time and lead to stronger visibility, it’s important to get treatment when they first appear. To reduce the look of blood vessels on the body and face, Treasure Valley Aesthetics & Wellness offers nonsurgical laser vein and lesion treatment sessions for Meridian, ID women and men. At your private consultation, our team will create a personalized plan to meet your needs and goals for your laser vein treatment.
Laser Vein and Lesion Treatment FAQ
How much does laser vein and lesion treatment cost?
Laser vein and lesion treatment will vary in cost based on the number of veins being addressed and how many sessions are suggested to attain the best possible outcomes. During your initial consultation, we will assess your veins, the size, and location, then create your personalized treatment process in order to estimate your cost. Treasure Valley Aesthetics & Wellness offers multiple payment forms and frequently provides deals on procedures, such as laser vein removal.
Should I get laser vein and lesion treatment or sclerotherapy?
Laser vein removal treatment is appropriate to help veins of all varieties and proportions. Based on your needs, laser vein and lesion treatment may be better than sclerotherapy according to what is being treated. Laser vein treatments can work effectively for spider veins, but some patients could get better results from sclerotherapy, which places a sclerosing liquid right into the spider vein to remove it. Larger veins, such as varicose veins, work well with laser-based vein treatment; however, if the vein is larger, surgery may be the ideal option. Our team will help you choose your best treatment method based on your unique concerns and goals.
Does the vein go away?
Laser-based vein therapy will concentrate on the vein with a gentle beam of light that stimulates the vein and then eliminates it. The laser system is extremely precise and focuses on only the target vein so it won’t hurt the surrounding areas of skin. Once the vein has collapsed, it takes around 1 – 2 months for the vein to be flushed out of your system and dissolve.
Where can laser vein and lesion treatment be used?
Spider veins may be located on the facial area, upper thighs, back of the legs, and around your ankles. Anywhere a spider vein exists, laser vein therapy may be a helpful treatment method. Our advanced laser works with precision as it targets the selected vein so that the tissue and skin around the veins are unharmed.
Is laser vein and lesion treatment painful?
Prior to your treatment, we may apply an anesthetic gel to keep you comfortable. Most people feel a mild tingling sensation or a sting when the laser targets the vein. Most laser systems on the market, including the one our practice uses, are equipped with a built-in system that produces a cool-down sensation. This minimizes discomfort and prevents the laser from overheating, which could result in an injury or other damage to the treated region.
