NEAMAN MEDI SPA | SALEM, OREGON ALSO SERVICING SURROUNDING AREAS

Even though vascular lesions on the skin don’t typically pose as a medical threat to your health, they can, however, cause you to become embarrassed or self-conscious because of their unsightly appearance. The appearance of these skin blemishes can quickly and easily be reduced in just one to two laser treatments helping to give you back your confidence and ability to show off your skin proudly.

At Neaman Medi Spa, we are specialists in advanced medical laser therapies for the treatment of unwanted vascular lesions that are causing you much distress. All lesions need to be inspected to ensure you do not have an underlying condition that could potentially pose a health risk. If you have a vascular lesion that you would like treated, contact the skin experts at Neaman Medi Spa to discuss your options and any possible concerns.

ABOUT VASCULAR LESIONS

Vascular lesions, simply put, are blood vessels that can be seen through the skin. They usually appear red or purple in color and can occur in various sizes and shape on all areas of the body; however, they are most commonly found on the face and legs. There are many causes of vascular lesions, including the natural aging process. As we age, changes occur to our vascular system that can cause pooling in blood vessels or create large vessels to form directly under the skin, resulting in broken capillaries, hemangiomas, cherry angiomas, and spider veins.

LASER THERAPY FOR TREATING VASCULAR LESIONS

Short pulses of laser energy are directly applied to the entire area of the skin blemish. The veins and capillaries in the skin absorb the laser’s energy while the melanin in the skin is targeted. The vessels begin to break down which then allows the body to naturally remove the pigment via the body’s natural immune defense.

Treatment is relatively painless, and procedure time is dependent on the size of the lesion being treated. Laser therapy can be used for the following:

FACIAL TELANGIECTASIAS

These are commonly found under the eyes, around the nose or on the cheeks. They appear sporadically and are the result of broken capillaries at the surface of the skin.

SPIDER VEINS

These small lesions usually form in clusters resulting in a variety of color changes at the skin’s surface. They often occur on the legs and may be the result of numerous factors including prolonged standing, sitting, hormonal changes, medications, pregnancy or an inactive lifestyle.

I was met with a caring, friendly staff. I am 59 and showing signs of aging. First, I had filler and BOTOX done by with great results. Next, a laser treatment using radio waves. Very little recovery time. I love the results already.

Debbie, Actual Patient*

There is no downtime related to vascular lesion laser therapy. You may experience some slight redness, but it can easily be covered up by makeup if needed. Results can be seen in as little as one to two laser treatments.

However, this does vary from person to person and is determined by the extent of treatment needed based on the size of the lesion. Most patients experience significant improvement in the appearance of their skin with laser treatment for vascular lesions.
