Cutera Vein Laser Therapy at Terrell Clinic
Forget unsightly blue and brown facial and leg veins. Better yet—forget the painful injections traditional used to treat them. Excel Vein Therapy from Cutera is an advanced treatment that safely and effectively treats both superficial veins on the face and deeper blue leg veins on both men and women.
How Excel Vein Therapy Works
Through pulses of light energy and an exceptionally long laser wavelength, Excel Vein Therapy is able to treat a broad range of vessels including spider veins and deep blue veins commonly found on the legs. The treatment delivers a pulse of light energy that causes the blood in the vein to coagulate and ultimately destroy the vessel. This is then reabsorbed into your body and blood flow is redirected to veins located deeper below the skin’s surface.
What To Expect
In most cases, patients report a slight stinging sensation, although no local anesthesia is required. A topical anesthetic is available upon request. Immediately following the treatment, all pain should subside. Few side effects are reported; however, some patients notice slight redness and some swelling of the skin above the area treated. The side effects typically last about 24 hours. In some cases, bruising can occur, and in rare cases, blistering can occur.
Results of Excel Vein Therapy
After two to six weeks post treatment, results become more and more evident. Significant improvement should be seen by this time and as time moves forward, the results can continue to improve. Generally, treatment plans include one to two sessions, however, this depends upon the number of veins being treated, their color and size. We’ll discuss your treatment plan upon reviewing your concerns in person. From there, we’ll have a better picture!
