Vasculight® Laser Therapy is a noninvasive method of vein
removal for patients with:
Vasculight® Laser Therapy uses heat energy from Intense
Pulsed Light (IPL) technology to target abnormal
veins without damaging healthy surrounding skin. The heat of
the laser distresses the walls of the veins and the veins begin
to shrink and eventually become invisible. The number of laser
treatments a patient needs depends on the size of the
abnormal
vein and patient's ability to heal.
In some cases, the doctor
may decide to use Vasculight® Laser Therapy combined with
Sclerotherapy.
The
benefits of Vasculight® Laser Therapy are:
One of the benefits of laser treatment is that
no downtime is involved with this procedure. Immediately after
the procedure, a patient
can continue their regular activities.
Treated
areas may appear
red and/or
bruised and swelling can occur, but pain is generally mild.
