Spider Vein Treatment Questions and Answers

Vasculaze is the latest laser technology brought to you by InMode, used primarily for spider vein treatment, but is also used to remove other vascular lesions. With Vasculaze, spider vein removal is now easier, quicker and more effective than ever.

The appearance of veins can be unattractive, causing both women and men to explore treatment options. Lesions can be very noticeable (long and bulging) or spider veins, which are smaller, finer and shorter (lines or web-like). Vasculaze can alleviate a wide variety of facial and leg vein issues with a laser that is targeted to treat the blood vessel causing the blemish. Vasculaze has a specially designed head that is built to pinpoint the vein or vein network, making treatments precise and safe. The technology in the Vasculazelaser sends pulses of light onto the vein, which makes the vein slowly fade and disappear, preventing the need for unpleasant incisions and needles.

Vascular lesions are present in 10-15% of adults, with a greater number found in women than men. Lesions, like spider veins, can be prevalent in a contained body area, spread out over multiple body areas, or show up as a singular line or cluster. The use of Vasculaze can help treat existing lesions and prevent them from getting worse.

Your aesthetic provider at InShape Medical will need to do an assessment of your vascular lesions. In general, the recommended types of vascular veins to treat are: facial and spider veins, port wine stains, leg veins, telangiectasias and angiomas. Varicose veins are typically larger and are not suitable for Vasculaze.

Areas of treatment

More common areas of Vasculaze treatment include:
face, décolleté, arms, upper thighs, back of thighs, and the lower legs.

Typically 3 sessions are required for optimal results, however, some lesions may require more. Gradual improvements in the treatment area can be seen following the first treatment – with the skin’s surface looking clearer as treatments progress.

Fortunately, Vasculaze treatments don’t mean a hospital stay or a long, uncomfortable recovery. Vasculaze is a quick procedure, taking only a few seconds per vein treated. Patients can come into the office and leave within minutes, depending on how extensive the vein or vein network is.

After a treatment with Vasculaze you should not engage in activities that significantly increase blood flow, like heavy exercise. Your practitioner may request you not engage in these activities for several days after treatment, depending on the area you had treated. In addition, areas treated should stay out of sunlight and be protected with a high SPF sunblock.
