Frequently Asked Questions about Laser Vein Removal
The CoolGlide difference: CoolGlide aesthetic systems combine the ideal laser wavelength with the most flexible parameters to deliver a superior vascular laser system. They treat a broad range of vessels from tiny spider veins to deep blue reticular veins quickly, safely, and effectively.
How does CoolGlide Vein Therapy work? Coolglide systems deliver pulses of light energy, which cause the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually collapsing the vessel, which is later reabsorbed by the body.
Who can be treated with CoolGlide systems? CoolGlide systems feature a unique design and long wavelength that allow them to treat patients of all skin tones.
What types of veins can be treated? CoolGlide systems can remove unsightly veins from all parts of the body. Small facial veins, called telangiectasia, can be treated quickly without bruising or complication. Knotty varicose veins are not good candidates.
How does this compare to sclerotherapy? Most patients and physicians prefer CoolGlide vein therapy because it does not require any painful injections.
Do the treatments hurt? Most medical offices do laser vein removal without any anesthetic.
What happens after the treatment? Following your treatment, some redness or bruising may appear. When large veins are treated, a tan pigment may persist for a few weeks or months after the treatment.
What are the possible side effects? Although many patients report few if any side effects, those most commonly noticed are a slight reddening and local swelling of the skin. These effects typically last for about 24 hours. Some patients may experience bruising and, in rare instances, blistering.
When will I see results? Tiny superficial veins of the face and legs are immediately collapsed and instant results can be seen. Larger veins are reabsorbed over a course of 2 to 6 weeks.
Will laser therapy work on my leg veins? Although there is no way to tell for sure which veins will respond, a consultation with the doctor is required to evaluate and assess your veins. Prior surgery or treatment on your veins could affect the treatment outcome.
What does it feel like? Although many patients report little or no discomfort, some may experience a mild stinging sensation only when the laser pulse is delivered.
How long will the treatment take? Treatment time should be 15 to 30 minutes but may vary depending on the number and size of the vessel(s) to be treated.
How many treatments will I need? In many cases, significant improvement is realized in as few as 1 to 3 treatments. Treatments may occur at 8 week intervals.
When can I resume normal activities? Although we encourage you to resume normal activities almost immediately, we do ask that you refrain from vigorous exercise and avoid hot tubs for at least 24 hours post-treatment.
What will the laser do to the veins? When treating vascular lesions, the blood temperature at the targeted area is elevated to a level that causes coagulation without damage to the epidermis or surrounding tissue.
