Vascular lesions are normal veins that have dilated under the influence of increased venous pressure. The Ellipse Nd:YAG is great for reducing the appearance of leg veins through selective photothermolysis. The ideal immediate response to treatment with vascular laser is coagulation of the vessel with no other apparent effect. This effect can be observed in the form of bluish or greyish discolouration visible on the skin surface. In leg veins, blanching or disappearance of the vessel may occur.

Leg vessels are normally deep, which is why Nd:YAG in most cases respond better than other light based treatments. SWT is good for treatment of very superficial small vessels or blanching after sclerotherapy. Note that lasers or light can only be used 1 month post sclerotherapy.

All sessions are 30 minutes duration.
