Spider veins are small web-like veins that appear on the body and face. Traditional treatments require surgery, but now you can eliminate those unsightly veins without surgery. Castellon Plastic Surgery Center, led by board-certified plastic surgeon Mauricio J. Castellon, MD, offers spider vein treatment with the Cutera excel HR and Sciton laser system, as well as other MedSpa services for men and women who live in Melbourne, Brevard County and the surrounding communities of Central Florida.
Spider veins form when the blood backflows and pools inside the veins. Over time, smaller veins swell and burst. The result is a web-like pattern of bluish or purple veins just below the surface of the skin. The veins can appear on the legs, face and other areas of the body. Spider vein laser treatment works by heating and destroying the damaged veins. The blood is rerouted through healthier, intact veins.
Spider vein treatment with the Cutera excel HR laser or Sciton laser safely and quickly destroys spider veins. No downtime is required. If your legs or arms are treated, Dr. Castellon may recommend that you wear compression garments to help with healing.
Spider veins can be a sign of an underlying cardiovascular condition, especially if you also have larger varicose veins. Dr. Mauricio Castellon may recommend that you be evaluated by your primary physician before receiving treatment for your spider veins. Spider veins can develop in people without cardiovascular problems, so most patients are able to receive spider vein laser treatment.
Laser energy heats the spider vein to the point where the vein is permanently destroyed. Your body naturally absorbs the vein, and blood is rerouted through neighboring veins. Dr. Castellon will evaluate the patient and decide which laser treatment, Cutera excel HR or Sciton system is preferred based on their individual needs and treatment areas.
The technology behind the Cutera excel HR and Sciton system allows us to precisely target the damaged veins. Applying laser energy to the vein causes it to be destroyed by the heat. You may need multiple treatments to completely destroy the veins. Most Melbourne spider vein patients require two to three treatments scheduled at six-week intervals.
