Varicose and spider veins are not only unattractive, but they are also painful. Some individuals who are dealing with problematic veins will avoid wearing shorts or skirts. Even though everyone else around them is enjoying the summer weather while wearing summer clothing, individuals with large veins are feeling uncomfortable in their heavy pants. It is only when they are at home and in private that they will wear clothing that exposes these veins.
In addition to not being able to enjoy a wide variety of clothing, varicose and spider veins can be uncomfortable. They can cause painful, itching sensations. Many individuals who are dealing with these veins have turned to laser vein reduction to enjoy its benefits.
How Veins Are Treated with Lasers
When a patient comes in for laser vein reduction, one of our skilled professionals will focus the laser beam of light on the problematic vein. This treats the vein because the heat that comes from the light causes the vein to close. As the vein closes, it is no longer supplied with blood. After some time, the vein will completely disappear.
The benefit that comes from using laser vein reduction is that it is not as uncomfortable as other vein treatments, like ligation and stripping. Also, it does not require as much downtime. When you go through other varicose or spider vein treatments, you may need a general anesthesia to put you to sleep.
