IPL Vein Treatment Procedures Achieve Great Results

Intense pulsed light and laser systems release precisely controlled strong pulses of filtered light that are absorbed by the blood vessel, heating it to a point where it is destroyed. Following treatment the vessels quickly clear and are re-absorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace f the original lesion. 





Which types of vein can be treated?

Facial thread veins, Rosacea, Spider Naevi, Port Wine Stains and Legs veins up to 3mm diameter (by laser).

How is the treatment carried out?

You will be asked to put on goggles to protect your eyes.  A layer of chilled gel is applied to the area to guide the light into the skin.  The light applicator is placed on the skin and a short pulse of light is released. The applicator is then moved to the neighbouring area and the process is repeated until the entire area is treated.  The chilled gel is removed and the area moisturise.

The fairer the skin, the easier the treatment. The best response is seen with small thread veins, spider naevi and rosacea. If there are any areas of broken skin, treatment has to be delayed until the area has completely healed.

How does the treatment feel?

No anaesthesia is required and most patients describe the discomfort as moderate and acceptable.
Sensations vary but most describe it as a very quick hot pin prick.

Varicose Vein and Spider Vein Removal for Clear, Smooth, SLEEK Legs

Often found on the thighs, backs of the calves, or the inside of the leg, varicose veins are enlarged veins with blue, red or a flesh toned appearance. Varicose veins can be swollen, raised and look like cords that twist. Spide veins are similar to varicose veins but they are smaller in size. Simialr to varicose veins, spider veins are often blue or red and give the appearance of tree-like branches or spider webs and appear closer to the skins' surface. Spider veins are most commonly found on the legs and face.
According to the website, http://www.womenshealth.gov  "About 50 to 55 percent of women and 40 to 45 percent of men in the United States suffer from some type of vein problem. Varicose veins affect half of people 50 years and older."
What Causes Varicose Veins and Spider Veins?
As we age, the veins in our body weaken and can develop into varicose veins or spider veins slowly, or, if brought on by hormonal changes, quite rapidly. Weight gain, a sedimentary lifestyle and pregnancy can often trigger the onset of spider veins and varicose veins.

Spider Vein Removal Available at Sleek Surgical & MedSpa!

Do you have unsightly spider veins? Millions of women each year develop unsightly spider veins due to standing or sitting for excessive periods of time, hormonal changes pregnancy or simply heredity. Never fear another summer! Sleek Surgical and MedSpa uses IPL Vein removal treatments and Sclerotherapy to achieve beautiful, smooth legs that you'll never want to hide again! The appearance of spider veins is caused by small, enlarged superficial blood vessels that appear red or blue. They appear in a sunburst pattern most commonly appear on the legs.


With IPL vein removal, laser light is applied to the treatment area, sending energy into the blood and vessel walls, which collapses the vein. Absorption of the light energy causes the blood to be reabsorbed by the body collapsing the vein. Another way to eliminate spider veins is with Sclerotherapy. Sclerotherapy works by injecting a sclerosing solution into the vein, causing it to shrink or fade from the surface of the skin, greatly reducing and removing visible spider veins. This treatment may also reduce other symptoms that come along with spider veins which include burning, cramping, and swelling.


Whatever the method of spider vein removal you choose, whether it is IPL vein removal or Sclerotherapy, Sleek Surgical and MedSpa can help rid your legs of unsightly spider veins.
