Vein Treatments

Whether born with them or acquired over the course of a lifetime, virtually everyone who reaches middle age gets there with one or more types of superficial vascular lesions. At Q Medical Spa we offer advanced technology in vein therapy and treatment options. Our vein therapy requires no downtime and after just a few treatments results are seen.

We offer Vein treatments for the face and body. Most commonly we use our Photoreuvjenation for facial veins and offer Sclerotherapy for spider veins on the legs.

Photorejuvenation (using IPL™ Technology)
Photorejuvenation using IPL™ (Intense Pulsed Light) is a non-invasive, non-surgical medical system that uses light therapy to eliminate vascular birthmarks, facial spider veins, and other vascular conditions.

During treatment, the IPL™ wavelength is optimized so that the intense light penetrates skin to reach the blood vessel. Immediately after the treatment the vessel begins to dissipate.

In the weeks after treatment, the effected vessel continues to dissipate.

The treatment involves pulses of intense light, similar to the flash of a camera. You may feel a slight pinch or snap of a rubber band. No anesthesia or pain medication is required. You may experience some short term reddening of the skin or local swelling which goes away in a few days. Most patients return to normal activity the same day. Each treatment lasts 30-60 minutes.


Sclerotherapy
Developed in the 1920's, sclerotherapy is a treatment option for the reduction of veins and broken cappillaries. During the procedure, a sclerosing solution is injected into the vein through a micro-needle. The tiny needle generally causes very little pain. The sclerosing solution causes the vein to collapse and gradually disappear over time. Sclerotherapy may eliminate the need for a more invasive surgical procedure.
