Broken Capillaries & Vessels. Benign Pigmented Lesions.

Laser energy is applied to the skin where it is readily absorbed by blood vessels, heating them to a point where they are destroyed.
Following treatment, the vessels quickly clear as they are reabsorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the original lesion.

Treatment is mildly uncomfortable but there is no need for anaesthesia and the procedure is actually quite quick. Sensations vary but most describe this treatment as feeling like a very quick, hot pinprick.

The number of sessions required varies from client to client and is dependent on many factors however, 3-5 treatments are needed for optimum results, though small lesions may clear in just a single session. Repeat treatments are spaced every 4 to 6 weeks.

Clinical studies show that clients have seen outstanding results in the first session.

Most people are suitable for treatment. We recommend a consultation with your clinician to ascertain if the treatment will be successful for you.

Broken capillaries & vessels are small superficial red, purple or blue veins that can occur on the legs or in fact anywhere on the body.

After treatment the area may feel warm for a few hours. Rarely, some delicate skin areas such as the cheeks or décolleté can be red and slightly swollen for up to 48 hours. Though very rare, there is a chance a small blister may form and there could be temporary lightening or darkening of the skin.

The causes of vessels include genetics, age, lifestyle, hormones, pregnancy and weight gain.  Although they are quite common, they can cause some distress and embarrassment for those who have them.
