Visible veins, such as broken capillaries and spider veins, can make your skin look uneven, aged, or discolored.. Laser treatment offers a fast, effective, and noninvasive way to diminish unwanted veins by safely targeting them with precision light energy. The result is clearer, more even-toned skin with little to no downtime. At Keamy Cosmetic, this advanced treatment is performed with expert care to help you achieve smoother, more confident-looking skin.
What Causes Spider Veins and Varicose Veins?
BOTOX® Cosmetic, Jeuveau®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN® all temporarily freeze targeted muscles to reduce contraction-induced wrinkles in areas such as the lines between the brows, around the eyes, and on the forehead. Results typically last three to four months, longer with regular use. This luxury treatment is offered at our Westborough and Salem, MA, and Naples, FL, practices.

Candidates for Laser Vein Therapy
Laser vein therapy sessions at Keamy Cosmetic may improve the appearance of small to medium-sized veins on the body and face. Commonly called spider veins, these visible blood vessels are typically not a medical problem; however, they are deemed a cosmetic problem. Affected people tend to avoid certain clothes (such as shorts and swimsuits) or use a lot of cosmetics to attempt to cover up these spider veins. Laser vein therapy is great for patients who have good overall health, do not have a history of blood clots, and aren’t pregnant.
Procedure for Laser Vein Removal
Dr. Keamy finds the XEO laser effective for removing spider and small varicose veins. First, she uses a local anesthetic in the area of the spider veins. Next, she sets the laser wavelength to match the color of the targeted vein. The laser light energy penetrates the skin surface and is absorbed by the color of the vein beneath. When the vein absorbs this energy, it converts to heat energy. This heat coagulates the blood inside the vein, causing the vein walls to collapse. This seals off the vein; any blood that was routed through the vein is rerouted to a neighboring, healthier vein. Once the vein is shut down, the body begins to scavenge the vein, removing it completely in time. But there is a dramatic lessening of the vein’s appearance at the time of treatment.

Laser Vein Treatment Recovery
Immediately after your treatment, you may feel a slight bump on the skin above the treated vein, but this goes away within a few hours. The area may also look a little redder, as if it is bruised. If you’re having several veins treated, we recommend wearing a support hose for a week or two to help the body begin removing the veins. There isn’t any downtime or need to avoid any activities.
