Laser treatments for veins

CoolGlide Vein Therapy For The Face & Body

Our CoolGlide laser system possesses the ideal wave length of 1064 nm to eliminate, often after one procedure, unwanted facial veins. However, noticeable veins on your legs are evaluated by the Doppler and the Veinlite, where then the best treatment will be proposed to eliminate the veins either by laser or schlerotherapy.

For women & men of all skin tones and types

“Now men and women alike are making unsightly facial and leg veins a thing of the past, thanks to Cutera CoolGlide. No more painful injections! With the most advanced technology, a unique design, and a longer wavelength, the Cutera CoolGlide can safely and effectively treat both tiny superficial face veins and deeper blue veins on men and women of all skin tones.”

The Cutera CoolGlide difference

Patients with dark, light or tanned skin can experience outstanding results with minimal bruising or blistering.

How does CoolGlide Vein Therapy work?

The Cutera CoolGlide systems deliver pulses of light energy which cause the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually destroying the vessel which is later reabsorbed by your body. Blood flow will then be redirected to veins deeper below your skin’s surface, where it should be.

Who can be treated with the Cutera CoolGlide?

The Cutera CoolGlide features a unique design and long wavelength that allows treatment of patients of all skin tones. Your physician will advise you if CoolGlide Vein Therapy is right for you.

The Cutera CoolGlide can remove unsightly veins from all parts of the body. Small, facial veins (or “telangiectasia”) can be treated quickly without bruising or complication. Spider veins and large blue leg veins can also be treated with excellent results.   Knotty varicose veins are not good candidates. A careful evaluation with your physician will help you determine which vessels can be treated and the best course of treatment.

How does this compare to Sclerotherapy?

Your doctor will advise you on the best course of action, but many physicians and patients prefer CoolGlide Vein Therapy because there are no painful injections.

What about blood blisters and port wine stains?

Blood blisters or “haemangioma” respond very well to CoolGlide Vein Therapy, usually with just one treatment. Patients with port wine stains and other vascular lesion who had given up on finding a solution have been overwhelmed by the success of their CoolGlide vascular treatments. Consult your physician for a thorough evaluation.

How many treatments will I need?

Often, patients find that one or two treatments are sufficient. However, the number of treatments necessary depends on the number, color, and size of the vessels being treated.   Since individual results vary, ask your medical professional about your specific condition.

Do the treatments hurt?

Most patients experience a stinging sensation as the pulses of energy are delivered through the handpiece.   Although no local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required, many patients opt to use a topical anesthetic prior to treatment. Following the treatments, the pain is minimal to nonexistent.

What happens after the treatment?

Following your treatment, some redness or bruising may occur. When larger veins are treated, a tan or brownish pigment may persist for a few weeks or months following treatment.   Patients who have leg vein treatments may be advised to wear support hose for a short period of time.

What are the possible side effects?

Although many patients report few if any side effects, those most commonly noticed are slight reddening and local swelling of the skin.   These effects typically last for less than 24 hours.   Some patients may experience bruising and, in rare instances, blistering may occur.   Consult with your medical professional for complete information on the benefits and risks of treatment.

Are there any restrictions on my activity after treatments?

Patients generally resume most normal activities immediately.   However, it is recommended that you avoid vigorous activities such as strenuous exercise for the first 24hours after treatments.   The use of sunscreen is recommended on any treated areas exposed to the sun.   As always, it is a good idea to limit your sun exposure.  

When will I see results?

Most patients find that the majority of the treated veins have shown significant improvement within two to six weeks of treatment.   However, your final results may not be apparent for several months.   Over time, it is possible for new veins to appear, but these too can be removed with the Cutera CoolGlide.
