Renaissance Laser and Vein Institute offers the latest Laser Vein Treatments to eliminate varicose and spider veins. Leg veins fall in one of three categories that define their size and severity: varicose veins, reticular veins or spider veins, all of which can receive medical vein treatment.
Unfortunately, all three types of veins can become increasingly prominent and unsightly as people age, resulting in dark blue and red lines that are visible through the skin. Though covering up the veins might work in the beginning, varicose veins and spider veins tend to get worse over time and require true medical vein treatment to eliminate the problem.
Laser vein treatments are the latest tool in the battle to eliminate varicose veins and spider veins. Laser vein treatment involves specially calibrated lasers whose wavelengths of energy target the vein and obliterate it in a few quick pulses. This method of vein treatment has an impressive success rate and can be done very quickly, allowing patients who have the laser vein treatment to return to their daily lives immediately. The old method of varicose vein treatment was much more invasive and involved an incision, anesthesia and removal of the vein. Cutting edge laser vein treatments, however, make the procedure a quick outpatient treatment that can quickly fix even very bad looking varicose veins within an hour. The lumpy, twisted varicose appearance will immediately dissipate following laser vein treatment, and the bluish color will fade over the next few weeks to reveal a beautiful, smooth area of skin where the varicosity used to be.
