VASCULIGHT (YAG) VEIN TREATMENT
Includes mask application, massage to tone up facial muscles, vacuuming,
laser-toning and deep facial cleansing to reveal a fresher, cleaner and
smoother skin
What is Vasculight & Vasculight Vein Treatment?
Vasculight is a non-invasive medical system that uses light
to treat a wide variety of cosmetic conditions such as removal of
unwanted hair, tattoo, pigmented lesions, birthmarks and varicose veins.
With the addition of NdYAG laser, it allows treatment of deeper veins
and lesions that are usually approached by surgical remov al or multiple
needle sclerosis sessions.
How does Vasculight work?
It targets the blood vessel, hair and pigment cells without
damage to the skin. It uses intense pulsed light and/or laser energy
which heats the target tissue (blood vessels or pigments) to high
temperatures. When damaged, the blood vessels/pigments dissolve causing
the lesion to fade away and slowly disappear.
What side effects may be experienced?
Most of the side effects are short term and may include some
reddening of the skin and local swelling lasting for few hours or days.
In rare instances there may be blistering.
What extent of vein problems can Vasculight treat?
Vasculight treatment is effective on a wide range of vessels
from very small to very large ones as well as sclero-resistant vessels.
SCLEROTHERAPY
What is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a simple, quick and relatively painless procedure
which involves injecting a sclerosing solution making the veins
collapse and disappear.
What does Sclerotherapy treat?
It is used to treat spider veins (small unsightly veins) and
varicose veins (large green bulging veins)
How successful is sclerotherapy?
After several treatments, most patients can expect a 50% to
90% improvement. However, fading is gradual. Disappearance of spider
veins is usually achieved, but similar veins may appear in the same
general area.
Are there side effects to sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy may have side effects such as minor muscle
cramping, red raised areas, red or brown spots, bruising, or a minor
allergic reaction to the sclerosing solution. None of these side
effects is major, and in most cases, disappear on their own or can be
treated relatively easily.
What are the benefits of Sclerotherapy Treatment?
Enhances skin appearance by improving the final look of the
affected veins
May also remedy the symptoms associated with spider veins,
including aching, burning,
swelling and night cramps.
