Spider veins belong to the family of telangiectasias and are usually vascular dilatations caused by genetic factors. The vessels dilate due to a vascular weakness. The capillaries lying directly under the surface of the skin become visible as a result. Spider veins mainly appear on the legs. We offer this treatment here in laderma located at Dearborn.
High-power diode laser MeDioStar NeXT Pro
The high-power diode laser MeDioStar NeXT Pro is an effective treatment option for spider veins, also known as telangiectasias. Spider veins are small, dilated blood vessels that are visible on the surface of the skin, often appearing as thin red, blue or purple lines. They can occur anywhere on the body, but are most commonly found on the face and legs.
During treatment with the MeDioStar NeXT Pro, laser energy is directed at the spider veins, causing the blood within the vessels to coagulate and the walls of the vessels to collapse. This closes the blood vessel permanently and allows the body to reabsorb it over time. The laser energy is delivered through a specialized handpiece that is placed directly over the spider veins. The MeDioStar NeXT Pro features patented cooling technology that protects the surrounding skin and minimizes discomfort during the procedure.
One of the major advantages of the MeDioStar NeXT Pro is its ability to treat spider veins on tanned or dark skin. Traditional treatments such as sclerotherapy and intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy are less effective on darker skin types due to the risk of skin damage and hyperpigmentation. The MeDioStar NeXT Pro uses a longer wavelength of laser energy that can safely penetrate the skin without causing damage, making it a safe and effective option for people with darker skin tones.
Most patients require multiple treatment sessions to achieve optimal results, with an interval of about 4-6 weeks between each session. The number of sessions required depends on the severity of the spider veins and the size of the treatment area. After treatment, patients may experience mild redness or swelling, which typically resolves within a few days. It is also recommended to avoid sun exposure and wear compression stockings for a period of time after the procedure to promote healing and prevent new spider veins from forming.
