What Are Spider Veins?
Spider veins are tiny clusters of noticeable veins. The veins can be red, blue, or purple, and they are much thinner than varicose veins.
Spider veins are created when the vein valves stop functioning properly, thus allowing the blood to flow backwards and pool. This is mostly like to happen in areas like the thighs, calves, and ankles, but it can also happen in parts of the face.
Causes of Spider Veins
There are certain factors that lead to spider veins:
- Heredity
- Hormonal shifts
- Prolonged sitting or standing on a regular basis
- Pregnancy
- Weight fluctuations
Am I a Good Candidate for Laser Spider Vein Removal?
Patients who are bothered by small spider veins on their face or body are excellent candidates for Excel V laser spider vein removal. Candidates must have a positive outlook and realistic expectations for the procedure. They must also be in good overall health. Lastly, patients who are committed to following the recommended treatment plan are ideal candidates.
Your Consultation
During your consultation, you can point out the affected areas where spider veins are present. The concerned areas will be carefully examined to determine if the veins in question are spider veins or varicose veins. Your medical history will be evaluated, and then a personalized treatment plan will be created.
The details of the treatment plan will be discussed with you. You can ask questions all throughout the consultation. The date of your Excel V laser treatment will then be scheduled.
Laser Spider Vein Removal with Excel V
The Excel V laser treatment is suitable for spider veins closer to the surface of the skin. This treatment requires no incisions.
The process typically takes around 15 to 30 minutes. Once the patient is wearing safety glasses, pulses of laser energy are directed towards the targeted veins.
The skin is cooled during treatment for protection. A slight stinging may be felt during treatment when the laser pulses reach the skin. A topical numbing cream can be used to prevent this, though it is not required for every case.
The heat from the laser energy will make the spider veins clot, shrink, and break apart over time. As the body absorbs the veins, the skin’s natural appearance is restored.
After Laser Spider Vein Removal
After a spider vein removal session with the Excel V laser, minor bruising, redness, or swelling may be present. These issues will fade shortly. For a week, it will be best to avoid prolonged sun exposure.
Typically, patients require two to three Excel V treatment sessions for optimal results. Results can be seen very quickly.
How Much Does Spider Vein Removal Cost?
The cost of Excel V laser spider vein removal will depend on the details of each patient’s specific case. Factors like the number of veins being treated and their locations can potentially affect the total price of the treatment.
