How does it work?

The Nd:YAG laser used at Cheadle Laser Clinic, penetrates deeply into tissue and can be used for the coagulation of unwanted veins. It may take several weeks after the laser treatment to notice improvement and often additional vein treatments are required.

How many sessions do I need?

The results may vary from person to person as it depends upon the depth of veins, the area and the underlying sprouting . Usually 6-8 sessions would be enough.

How does it work?

The specific laser beam targets pigment. The red, purple or blue pigment of the broken or enlarged vein absorbs the heat energy from the laser, leaving the surrounding tissue untouched. This targeted laser energy disrupts the vein or vessel, causing the blood inside to coagulate. Once coagulation has taken place, the vein collapses and is absorbed back into the body. The blood flow will be redirected to a vein deeper in the skin. In some instances, targeted vessels will clear instantly.

What's the recovery & aftercare?

Some patients experience redness or mild swelling in the treated area immediately following treatment, which usually dispels within a few hours. Some minor bruising can occur, while should dissipate within a few days. Because the laser targets pigment, avoid any form of tanning – this will make it harder for the laser to distinguish differences in pigment and can result in laser burn. Daily application of a minimum SPF 30 broad-spectrum sunscreen is required to protect the newly treated skin.
