Laser Dermatology For Spider Veins


Laser dermatology is used to treatment spider veins, sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, surgical scars, or problems with the texture of your skin or pigmentation.

Spider viens are tiny subcutaneous veins most often occurring on the face and legs. Many women and men feel self-conscious about having spider veins because they are easy to see, particularly if you have fair skin. Sclerotherapy is an effective treatment for spider veins. Sclerotherapy has been performed successfully for decades. Sclerotherapy uses highly concentrated saline that is injected directly into the spider veins. The spider veins typically disappear over 1 month.

Today most people are informed about the dangers of the sun and we know to protect ourselves with sunscreen. However, for many of us, the damage has already been done. If you have had excessive exposure to the sun, you may now have visible sun damage. In many cases, this damage is solely cosmetic, and fortunately there are solutions to this problem. Dr. Sobel at the Skin & Spa Cosmetic Surgery Center in New York City uses an Aurora laser to treat sun damaged skin. This is a new technology that combines the energies of light and radio frequency. Age spots, freckles, and sun spots can be targeted. In addition, this laser can treat the associated redness of rosacea as well as spider veins. The laser procedure is very well tolerated requiring only a topical anesthetic.

There is no reason to continue to hide the parts of your skin that displease you. If you are uncomfortable with the way you look, then it may be time for you to do something about it. Take the first step by contacting Dr. Sobel and his staff at the Skin & Spa Cosmetic Surgery Center in New York City. Dr. Sobel will evaluate you and determine what treatments are available to meet your individual needs.
