What Is Laser Vein Treatment?

Target Unwanted Vessels Without Surgery

Laser vein treatment uses targeted energy to treat unwanted blood vessels beneath the skin. The energy causes the vessel to close, allowing the body to naturally clear it over time for clearer, more even-looking skin.

At Well Aesthetics, we use the Candela Nordlys® system with advanced IPL and Nd:YAG 1064 technology. This allows us to choose the appropriate handpiece, wavelength, and settings based on the size, depth, and location of the vessel being treated.

Treatment can address concerns like broken capillaries, facial veins, spider veins, persistent redness, and other visible vessels on the face and body.

What We Treat

Face & Body Vein Concerns

Face

Facial Vessels & Redness

Unwanted facial vessels and redness are incredibly common — and incredibly treatable. Laser energy precisely targets the visible vessels causing discoloration without affecting the surrounding skin.

Broken capillaries
Facial redness
Rosacea-related redness
Visible vessels on the nose and cheeks
General skin redness and blotchiness

Body

Spider Veins & Body Vessels

Spider veins on the legs and body are a common cosmetic concern that can be safely and effectively treated without injections or surgery. The laser closes the vessel so the body can naturally clear it over time.

Advanced Technology for Precise Results

At Well Aesthetics, laser vein treatments are performed using the Candela Nordlys® platform — a multi-application system that combines multiple wavelengths in one device, allowing your provider to match the right energy to your specific concern.

The Nordlys® uses Selective Waveband Technology (SWT®) to deliver precise bursts of light energy to targeted vessels while leaving the surrounding skin completely unaffected. It's the same platform used for IPL treatments, adapted for vascular concerns with specific wavelength settings designed for vessel clearance.

Good to Know

At a Glance

Treatment Time

Approximately 15 to 45 minutes depending on the size and number of areas treated.

Downtime

Minimal. Most patients return to their normal routine the same day. Some temporary redness or mild bruising may occur.

Discomfort

Most patients describe a mild snapping or warm sensation during treatment. A topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort on sensitive areas.

Sessions Needed

1 to 3 sessions are typical, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The number varies based on the size, depth, and number of vessels being treated.

Suitable For

Most healthy adults with visible spider veins, facial redness, or broken capillaries. Candidacy is determined at your consultation.

After Treatment

What to Expect

Immediately After

Treated vessels may appear darker or more visible immediately after treatment — this is normal. The area may feel warm and slightly red for a few hours.

Days 1 to 7

Treated facial vessels typically fade within 7 to 14 days. Spider veins on the body may take slightly longer to clear. Avoid sun exposure and apply SPF daily.

Weeks 2 to 6

The body gradually reabsorbs the treated vessels. Clearance continues to improve over this period as the lymphatic system processes the closed vessels.

Results

Most patients see significant improvement after their first session. Full results are typically visible 4 to 6 weeks after treatment. Individual results vary and are not guaranteed.

Common Questions

Laser Vein Treatment FAQ

Does laser vein treatment hurt?

Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snap or brief warmth — similar to a rubber band flick. Facial treatments are generally well-tolerated. A topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand for more sensitive areas.

How many sessions will I need?

Most patients need 1 to 3 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Smaller facial vessels often respond in a single session. Spider veins on the legs may require additional treatments depending on their size and number. A personalized plan will be created during your consultation.

Will the veins come back after treatment?

Treated vessels are permanently closed and cleared by the body. However, new vessels can develop over time due to genetics, sun exposure, hormones, and lifestyle factors. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to address new vessel formation.

Is there any downtime?

Minimal. Most patients return to normal activities the same day. Some temporary redness, mild bruising, or darkening of the treated vessel is normal and resolves within days to a couple of weeks. Sun protection is essential following treatment.

Can laser treat all types of leg veins?

Laser vein treatment is most effective for spider veins and small superficial vessels. Larger varicose veins — especially those that are raised or bulging — are generally not appropriate for laser treatment and may require a referral to a vascular specialist. Your provider will assess your veins at your consultation and recommend the most appropriate treatment.

Who is not a candidate for laser vein treatment?

Laser vein treatment may not be appropriate for patients who are pregnant, have certain blood clotting disorders, take blood thinners, have very dark skin tones (depending on the vessel location), or have active skin infections in the treatment area. A thorough consultation will determine whether this treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
