How does the Vascular Lesions Treatment work?
The laser gives energy to the skin, which is absorbed by blood vessels, scars, port wine stains, hemangiomas, and other vascular lesions. This relatively quick, comfortable procedure can eliminate blood vessels by precise tissue heating, i.e. energy is directed against the vessels alone and does not alter the surrounding skin.
Long Pulsed YAG (LPY)
This laser offers precise treatment for visible vessels, spider veins, and vascular lesions, tailored to various skin conditions.
- Effective Vascular Treatment: LPY Laser collapses and seals veins, diminishing their appearance on the skin's surface.
- Targeted Precision: Laser energy heats vessels precisely, leaving surrounding skin unaffected for comfortable treatment.
- Lasting Results: Regular sessions with sun protection yield longer-lasting outcomes, preventing future lesions.

Moreover, veins located further down on the body tend to be more resistant and may take longer to disappear.
