Overview
Our staff at the ZO Skin Centre® Beverly Hills, CA can assess your skin for spider veins and vascular lesions to see if our Vbeam or Vantage Laser can improve or erase their presence. Even though a spider vein is harmless, it may be causing you stress and self-esteem issues. Why? These veins are difficult to cover up and are very noticeable on the skin. Many patients (30 – 60% of adults) present spider veins on their face and body that are red, purple, or blue twisted blood vessels in varying sizes. If not treated, these veins can branch out larger. Laser vein removal works best for small spider veins and may require several treatments for maximum effect. While the treatment is quickly noticeable, it is important to have patience with your skin while the spider veins fade away. We would love to have you in our Beverly Hills office to see what we can do to assist you. Laser vein removal does not prevent veins from appearing on the skin, but it may stop the spread of current spider veins. Call and schedule a consultation today!

Best Candidates
If you are self-conscious about the appearance of your spider veins, in good health, do not have a history of blood clots, and are not pregnant – you are a great candidate for our laser vein removal treatments. You may have visible veins or patches of branch-like veins on your face, thighs, or lower legs. During a consultation, we can assess how we can best diminish these lines and what technique is appropriate.
What to Expect
In our laser treatment room, we will invite you to rest comfortably. Your eyes will be covered with protection from the laser light energy, and your skin will be prepared for the laser treatment. Using a hand-held laser device (the Vbeam or Vantage Laser), our provider will pass it over the treatment area that has visible veins only. The light energy is absorbed by the vein, which is how it is eliminated as it fades from your skin. Before leaving, we will instruct you how to care for your skin in between treatments for best results. Redness, bruising, or blistering may occur in the area, but this should subside. Wearing sunscreen is very important as your treated skin will be vulnerable and sensitive to any exposure to sunlight. You can expect to schedule repeat treatment sessions until the vein has disappeared.
