Laser Vein Treatment • FAQ
How many treatments will I need?
Typically one to two Laser Vein Treatments are sufficient. The number of treatments really depends on the area being treated and the number and size of the vessels being treated. The final decision will be made together with the assistance of your laser professional.
Do the treatments hurt?
Most patients experience a stinging sensation when the laser hits the target. However the laser pulse is very quick making the treatments bearable. Topical anesthetic may be applied to sensitive areas.
What are the possible side effects?
There will be redness and swelling of the skin in the areas treated. In some instances, bruising may occur and rarely blistering may occur.
When will I see results?
Most patients see significant improvement within two to six weeks after treatment. However, you may continue to see improvement for several months. Over time, it is possible for new veins to appear that may require another treatment. |
