Vascular Lesion Reduction
Targeted Vascular Solutions
Vascular lesion reduction is a focused medical treatment used to clear away unwanted veins and red spots.
These imperfections often occur due to sun exposure, genetics, or the natural aging process of the circulatory system. Our advanced lasers allow us to treat these lesions with high precision without affecting the healthy skin around them. We are committed to helping you regain a clear and confident appearance through these non-surgical techniques.
Coagulation of Unwanted Vessels
The laser generates a concentrated beam of light that is specifically tuned to be absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood. When the energy is delivered, it creates heat that causes the vessel walls to collapse and seal shut. This process effectively stops the blood flow to that specific visible lesion.
Once the vessel is closed, the body begins a natural cleanup process to break down the remaining tissue. Over the following weeks, the treated lesion fades away as it is reabsorbed by your system. This method is highly effective for small spider veins and bright red spots known as cherry angiomas.
Candidates for Vein Reduction
This treatment is perfect for individuals who are bothered by the appearance of "broken" capillaries on their nose or cheeks. It is also suitable for patients with red vascular spots on their torso or legs that they wish to remove. Most patients see a significant improvement after just one or two sessions.
People who have realistic expectations and a commitment to sun protection are the best candidates for this procedure. It is a medical-grade solution for those who want clearer skin without the need for invasive surgery or needles. We will review your medical history to ensure your safety and success.

Restores a more youthful and uniform appearance to the skin by removing distracting red and purple imperfections.
Caring for Treated Vessels
After your vascular treatment, your body needs time to absorb the closed vessels. Following these steps will prevent the vessels from reopening or darkening.
- Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to the treated area to prevent sun damage from causing new vascular lesions to form nearby.
- Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer twice a day to keep the skin healthy while it processes the neutralized vascular tissue and pigment.
- Keep the treated area clean and dry, using only lukewarm water and a soft cloth for the first few days after treatment.
- Avoid vigorous exercise for at least forty-eight hours to keep your blood pressure low and prevent the treated vessels from reopening.
- Do not take very hot showers or use steam rooms for three days to ensure the skin temperature remains neutral during healing.
- Avoid using any products with alcohol or strong acids on the treated area for one week to prevent unnecessary skin irritation.
