What is laser vein therapy, and how does it work?
Laser vein therapy involves using the BBL HERO technology to target vascular concerns. The process involves emitting precisely calibrated light energy absorbed by hemoglobin (the pigment in red blood cells) in the targeted blood vessels. This causes the blood vessels to heat up and collapse, ultimately leading to their gradual disappearance as the body’s natural healing process clears away the treated veins. The result is clearer, vein-free skin.
What makes BBL HERO unique?
BBL HERO (High Energy Rapid Output) distinguishes itself from other IPL devices with its remarkable capacity to deliver faster and more precise treatments. Utilizing BroadBand Light (BBL) technology, it effectively targets the root cause of spider veins. BBL HERO’s cutting-edge cooling mechanisms ensure patient comfort throughout the procedure. BBL HERO is an extremely versatile device, and the wavelengths of light can also be calibrated to address other concerns, such as pigmentation issues and skin laxity.
You are an ideal candidate for laser vein therapy if you:
- Have spider veins or varicose veins.
- Have broken blood vessels or telangiectasia.
- Suffer from vascular birthmarks or rosacea-related redness.
- Want to improve the appearance of leg veins or facial redness.
- Are in good health with realistic expectations.
- Seek a non-invasive solution for vascular concerns.
What happens during the laser vein therapy session?
During your laser vein therapy session, our expert technician uses the BBL HERO device to deliver precise bursts of light energy to the targeted veins. You’ll feel a mild, stinging sensation as the energy is absorbed by the hemoglobin in the veins, causing them to constrict and gradually fade away. The procedure is relatively quick — typically between 30 to 60 minutes.
What is recovery like after laser vein therapy?
After your laser vein therapy, you may experience mild redness and slight swelling in the treated area, similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a few hours. It’s advisable to avoid sun exposure and apply sunscreen to protect the treated skin. You can resume most of your daily activities immediately, but avoid strenuous workouts for a few days.
What results can I expect after laser vein therapy?
Results from laser vein therapy become noticeable within a few weeks. The spider veins will initially darken before fading away. While you’ll see improvements after one session, most patients need 2 to 3 sessions for optimal results. The same vascular issues won’t return, but you can develop new spider veins, for which you’ll need additional treatments.
