Aging, heredity, leg injuries, pregnancy and sun exposure can cause unsightly veins. Fortunately, many unwanted veins may be reduced or eliminated with almost no down-time.

Treatment time:
Times vary but range between 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number and size of the vessel(s) to be treated.

Number of treatments:
In many cases, significant improvement is realized in as few as 1 to 3 treatments. In some cases, new spider veins may appear; therefore, additional treatments may be necessary. Treatments can be scheduled at 8-week intervals.

Exercise:
Although we encourage you to resume normal activities almost immediately, we do ask that you refrain from vigorous exercise and avoid hot tubs for at least 24 hours post treatment. Also, avoid direct sun exposure after treatment; if you do go out in the sun, protect the treated area with a minimum SPF 30 Sun Block (not sunscreen).

Supplements:
Avoid taking aspirin, Vitamin E, St. John’s Wort, or any other blood-thinner two weeks before having laser vein treatment.
