Leg & Facial Veins Laser
Leg and Facial Veins Laser treatment reduces the visibility of unwanted veins on the legs and face. The laser emits a focused light beam that targets the blood pigments without damaging the surrounding skin. This light energy causes the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually leading to the collapse and absorption of the vein by the body. The procedure effectively treats spider, reticular, and some smaller varicose veins, making it a versatile solution for enhancing the skin’s appearance.
Leg and Facial Veins Laser in West Des Moines, IA, is suitable for individuals who are self-conscious about visible veins on their face or legs and looking for a non-invasive treatment option. This treatment mainly benefits those with fair to medium skin tones and works best on smaller veins.
