Laser capillary treatment is an effective method used to treat thin veins and capillaries seen on the face and body. This treatment uses laser beams to target the veins, causing them to shrink and eventually disappear. Since capillaries are superficial and thin, laser treatment can effectively destroy these veins.
Nd:YAG lasers and pulsed dye lasers are commonly used to treat capillary veins. Laser beams target the hemoglobin inside the veins, causing them to heat up and close. Treatment is usually short-lived and may require several sessions. A certain amount of time is allowed between sessions for the skin to heal.
There may be some discomfort during the procedure, but it is usually painless and does not require anesthesia. There may be slight redness and swelling on the skin after the procedure, but these side effects will pass in a short time. Laser capillary treatment is a minimally invasive method and has a quick recovery time. This treatment reduces the appearance of capillary veins on the face, legs and other body areas, making the skin look smoother and healthier.
