Nd:YAG Laser Vein Treatment

Nd: YAG Laser Vein Treatment provides a fast and effective treatment to target unwanted blue, red and purple lesions (spider veins) on the face or body while sparing the surrounding skin. It delivers energy that causes the blood within the vein to coagulate. The vessel is then slowly absorbed by the body and gradually disappears. Blood flow will then be redirected to viable, healthy veins.

Time element:
20 to 30 minutes (depending on area)
