For The Face & Body |
|
Now men and women alike are making unsightly facial and leg veins a thing of the past, thanks to our sophisticated laser technology. No more painful injections! Today, we can safely and effectively treat tiny superficial face veins on men and women of all skin tones.
LCI Lasercom uses the most advanced technology with the ideal laser wavelength and flexible parameters to deliver superior results.
We can treat a broad range of vessels from tiny spider veins to deep blue reticular veins quickly, safely, and effectively. Patients with dark, light or tanned skin can experience outstanding results with minimal bruising or blistering.
How does it work?
Our laser system delivers pulses of light energy which cause the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually destroying the vessel which is later reabsorbed by your body.
Blood flow is then be redirected to veins deeper below your skin’s surface, where it should be. |

1. What about blood blisters & port wine stains?
Blood blisters or “hemangiomas” respond very well to our Vein Therapy, usually with just one treatment. Patients with port wine stains and other vascular lesions who had given up on finding a solution have been overwhelmed by the success of their vascular treatments. Consult with our physician for a thorough evaluation. The overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic.

2. How many treatments will I need?
Often, patients find that one or two treatments are sufficient. However, the number of treatments necessary depends on the number, color, and size of the vessels being treated. Since individual results vary, ask your medical professional about your specific condition.

3. Do the treatments hurt?
Most patients experience a stinging sensation as the pulses of energy are delivered through the handpiece. Although no local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required, many patients opt to use a topical anesthetic prior to treatment. Following the treatment,
the pain is minimal to nonexistent.

4. What happens after the treatment?
Following your treatment, some redness or bruising may occur. When larger veins are treated, a tan or brownish pigment may persist for a few weeks or months following treatment. Patients who have leg vein treatments may be advised to wear support hose for a short period of time.

5. What are the possible side effects?
Although many patients report few if any side effects, those most commonly noticed are slight reddening and local swelling of the skin. These effects typically last for less than 24 hours. Some patients may experience bruising and, in rare instances, blistering may occur.
Consult with your medical professional for complete information on the benefits and risks of treatment.

6. When will I see results?
Most patients find that the majority of the treated veins have shown significant improvement within two to six weeks of treatment. However, your final results may not be apparent for several months. Over time, it is possible for new veins to appear, but these too can be removed.
