Learn More About Vascular Treatment with Our Richmond Providers
If you have spider veins, small varicose veins, cherry angiomas, visible vessels on your nose and cheeks or red flushing to your face you may have wondered what you can do about them. We are pleased to offer solutions such as our vascular laser vein treatments at Cassie Lane Aesthetics in the Richmond, Virginia, area.
What Vein Treatment is Available?
Cassie Lane is excited to offer vascular laser vein treatment to remove cherry angiomas, spider veins, telangiectasias (small broken blood vessels on the nose and cheeks) and small varicose veins. This treatment works with laser energy to collapse specific blood vessels and help them disappear. We can also address redness and flushing and redness to the face and chest.
What Can I Expect During Treatment?
During your vascular laser vein treatment at Cassie Lane, a topical anesthetic may be applied to the treatment area if needed. The laser handpiece will then be used to deliver the laser energy directly to the veins. You may feel a brief heating sensation during the treatment, but this should not be painful.
How Do I Care for My Skin After the Procedure?
Aftercare for vascular laser vein treatment is minimal. You might notice some redness, swelling, and bruising in the treatment area, but this should resolve within a few days. We recommend avoiding hot baths, saunas, and sun exposure for the first 24 hours after treatment. You should also avoid any strenuous activity for the first few days to allow your body to heal.
How Many Treatment Sessions Will I Need to Achieve Optimal Results?
The number of treatments needed for optimal results will vary depending on the type and number of veins being treated. Most patients see significant improvement after one or two treatments, though additional treatments may be necessary in some cases. Our team at Cassie Lane will evaluate you to determine how many services you will need to achieve your goals of removal.
