Leg Vein Treatment

Centre For Cosmetic Surgery

Unwanted leg veins are common for women of every age and can cause a great deal of embarrassment. Thankfully, you don’t have to live with them, or spend valuable time and money covering them up. With laser treatment or sclerotherapy, you can diminish the appearance of leg veins without the pain of surgical treatments and lengthy downtime. These include leg veins, reticular veins, and spider veins. You no longer need to cover your legs – show them off with leg vein reduction.

 

 

 

 

Leg Vein Procedures

Laser Vein Reduction

Laser leg vein reduction uses laser light energy to pass through the skin and into the veins, absorbing the energy and constricting the blood vessels in the legs, causing the veins to visibly disappear. The vessel will disintegrate, restoring the skin’s natural appearance without harming the surrounding tissue. It’s a simple, clinically proven procedure for reducing the appearance of spider veins on your legs that will get you back on your feet quickly — and gets your legs back to their youthful appearance with ease.

Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy involves an injection of a solution (generally a salt solution) directly into the vein. The solution irritates the lining of the blood vessel, causing it to swell and stick together, and the blood to clot. Over time, the vessel turns into scar tissue that fades from view.
