Disease

These are capillaries that have a larger diameter than normal and are located closer to the surface of the skin, which is why they are visible to the naked eye. They are usually found in "groups" and are more common in women. 

Cause

Standing, sun exposure, heredity, hormonal changes and pregnancies are causes associated with varicose veins in the legs. Increased weight also plays a role. Most of the time they are not related to a problem with blood circulation in the lower extremities and do not cause any problem except perhaps appearance. Other times, however, they may coexist with venous insufficiency and/or "varicose veins", that is, swollen veins with "knots" in some parts of them. The dermatologist, if necessary, will refer for an ultrasound of the veins to confirm the diagnosis.

Results

Usually with one application we achieve satisfactory results, while in more severe problems a second application is recommended for further improvement. With each cryolipolysis session we achieve approximately 25% reduction of local fat.

Treatment advantages

Nd-Yag laser treatment, the most advanced generation of lasers, is currently considered the best option for varicose veins on the legs, both in terms of effectiveness and safety. One of the advantages of the Nd-Yag laser is that it can be used for both spider veins and more resistant varicose veins, at greater depths and with thicker walls. 

The action of the Nd-Yag laser is based on its ability to absorb blood hemoglobin in the vessels that make up the varicose veins. The heat emitted by the beam inside the vessel leads to blood coagulation, resulting in its shrinkage and absorption by the body. Its use by an experienced dermatologist allows the laser beam to penetrate deeply into the skin, destroying only the problematic vessels without affecting the epidermis and healthy surrounding tissues. 

Application

This is a treatment with mild pain and a short recovery period, without scars and without bruising. The local irritation that may be caused subsides in about 2 weeks, while the problem is treated radically in 1-3 sessions on average.
