FAQs

How does the treatment work?

Light energy is applied to the skin where it is readily absorbed by blood vessels, heating them to a point where they are destroyed. Following treatment, the vessels quickly clear as they are reabsorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the original lesion.

Which types of veins can be treated?

Most red skin lesions, including facial Thread Veins, Rosacea, Spider Naevi, and Port Wine Stains, can be treated very successfully. Depending on the lesions, leg vessels can also respond well to treatment.

How is the treatment carried out?

The light applicator is placed on the skin, releasing a short pulse of light is released. The applicator is moved to the neighbouring area, and the process is repeated until the entire area is treated.

How does the treatment feel?

Treatment is mildly uncomfortable, but there is no need for anesthesia.

After treatment, the area may feel warm for a few hours. Rarely, some delicate skin areas such as the cheeks or décolleté can be red and slightly swollen for up to 48 hours.

How long does each treatment take?

Treatments typically take from 15 to 45 minutes, depending on the type and size of the lesion.

How many treatments are necessary?
