Spider Vein
Therapy

Laser is a precise tool that targets specific vascular lesions like telangiectasias (spider veins). The light energy is absorbed by the blood vessels, converting to heat that damages and closes the vessels. These can be treated in areas such as the face, neck, chest, or legs.

What Spider Veins Look Like

Recognizing Telangiectasias

Spider veins — also called telangiectasias — appear as fine red, pink, or purple branching vessels visible just beneath the skin. They can develop on the legs, face, hands, and chest.
