Spider Veins Treatment in Brașov

The Nd:YAG laser is highly effective for eliminating spider veins, those fine, visible blood vessels that often appear on the legs. Unlike other methods, it works beneath the skin’s surface to collapse the veins from the inside, and it’s safe for all skin types. Most patients see significant improvement after one or two sessions.

Treatment of spider veins with the Nd:YAG laser offers numerous benefits, both aesthetic and functional.

Here is how this treatment helps and what advantages it has:

• Improved skin appearance: the Nd:YAG laser effectively treats spider veins, eliminating their visible appearance under the skin. This results in more uniform skin.
• Non-invasive treatment: unlike other more invasive procedures, laser treatment of spider veins is quick, comfortable, and does not require incisions or needles. As such, no recovery is necessary and there is no risk of scarring.
• Safety and precision: The Nd:YAG laser is very precise because it acts directly on the dilated blood vessels without affecting the surrounding skin. As a result, the risk of side effects or damage to adjacent tissue is minimized.

At ArtMedica clinic, we place great emphasis on the thorough evaluation of vascular pathologies that have skin manifestations before treating them with the Nd:YAG laser.

Here are the steps:

1. Initial consultation: consists of an evaluation by the dermatologist, who will analyze the extent and severity of the spider veins. Depending on the degree of involvement, the doctor may recommend performing a Doppler ultrasound before starting the laser treatment for spider veins.
2. Preparation for treatment: Before the procedure, the affected area is cleaned and disinfected. The laser treatment of spider veins is performed without local anesthesia because the anesthetic can have a vasoconstrictive effect (reducing the vessel caliber), diminishing their visibility.
3. Application of Nd:YAG laser treatment: Through the Nd:YAG laser, energy pulses are emitted that target the hemoglobin in the blood vessels. With each pulse, a small area of coagulation is produced, until the vessel is closed.
4. Post-treatment recommendations: At the end of the session, the patient receives post-treatment instructions, which may include avoiding prolonged standing, wearing compression stockings, and, if needed, medication.
