With the Pento Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm wavelength), we can effectively treat superficial vessels such as spider veins and small visible vessels in the legs. The laser emits energy that is converted into heat in the blood vessel, causing the vessel to collapse and gradually disappear. The treatment is fast and effective in reducing visible leg veins.
Usually, 2-4 procedures are required to effectively reduce superficial vessels. The number of procedures may vary depending on the size of the vessels.
For optimal results, we recommend a 4-6 week interval between treatments. This gives the skin enough time to recover and the blood vessels the opportunity to gradually disappear.
To ensure the best results and minimize the risk of side effects, please follow these recommendations:
1. After the treatment
Avoid direct sunlight on the treated area for at least 2 weeks. Use a sunscreen with a high SPF if your skin is easily exposed to sunlight.
Avoid hot baths, saunas, and intense physical activity for the first 3-5 days after the procedure to prevent possible skin irritation.
Apply a mild, preferably organic oil or cream to the treated area to moisturize and soothe the skin.
2. Preventive measures
Try to avoid prolonged sitting or standing to improve blood circulation and reduce pressure on the legs.
Avoid hot baths, saunas, and intense physical activity for the first 3-5 days after the procedure to prevent possible skin irritation.
Avoid drinking alcohol and coffee for 2-3 days after treatment, as they can affect blood circulation and increase the risk of redness or swelling.
After treatment, the treated area may feel slightly numb and you may experience mild swelling. This is completely normal and usually the symptoms disappear within a few days. The blood vessels may also darken and then gradually disappear over the next 2-4 weeks.
