VASCULAR LASER

We recommend laser treatments during the months with less sun, roughly from September to May. After consulting your doctor, treatment is also possible in summer, provided you follow a consistent aftercare routine and protect your skin with SPF 50.

You may feel very mild discomfort. Most people find the vascular laser to be almost painless.

Depending on the indication, 1 to 3 sessions may be needed. Follow-up treatments should take place at intervals of 2 to 4 weeks.

The vascular laser is suitable for fine, red, superficial vessels, mainly on the face: for example veins on the nose and cheeks, couperose, redness caused by rosacea, spider angiomas and cherry angiomas. It can also help with fresh, red or slightly raised scars.

The vascular laser is not suitable for bluish or thicker veins on the legs. These vessels lie deeper and are often connected to the venous system. For these, we recommend seeing a vein specialist.

Possible side effects include redness for 24 to 48 hours, as well as a feeling of tightness or dryness in the treated areas.

- Avoid sunbathing (tanning beds, holidays etc.) for at least 1 week before the treatment.
- Allow 1 week between this and other treatments (microneedling, chemical peels, microdermabrasion).Ideally, come to your appointment without make-up. - - Your face will be cleansed on site before the treatment.

- Apply SPF 50 to the treated areas daily for at least 4 weeks.
- Avoid make-up or harsh products on the treated areas for the next 24 hours.
- Avoid strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours after your treatment.Avoid alcohol for the next 24 hours.
- Avoid other treatments such as microneedling, chemical peels and microdermabrasion for about 1 week.

Of course. Before each treatment, we discuss your wishes and analyse your initial situation.
