Many men and women want a treatment for the spider veins that appear on their face, legs, or other areas of the body. Spider veins—the visible blue, purple, or red veins that look like small spider webs on your otherwise clean skin—are an unwelcome sign of age that can detract from your appearance.

Thankfully, a comfortable, noninvasive laser spider vein removal treatment is available at our Louisville med spa for people from Lexington, KY; Floyds Knobs, IN; and surrounding areas. This laser treatment can correct the unattractive appearance of visible veins to give you a more youthful look.

At CaloSpa®, we use the ClearV® laser to address spider veins that appear on the face and to address unattractive leg veins. Our skin care professionals are happy to review your visible veins and recommend a treatment package. Request a spa consultation online or call us today.

Spider Vein Treatment

Laser spider vein treatment requires no downtime or sedation, and your procedure may be completed in under an hour. The ClearV laser produces a beam of energy that is absorbed only by pigmented vein structures in the skin without harming surrounding healthy tissue. The laser energy causes the vein to dissolve. At CaloSpa®, we also use the ClearV laser to treat spider veins. These powerful lasers are especially effective on vascular lesions, including veins. ClearV heats the veins to reduce the appearance of visible veins, redness, rosacea, and warts. In most cases, a single treatment is enough to see results.

Laser vein removal is ideal for smaller veins (about an eighth of an inch or smaller), while larger veins may require sclerotherapy (collapsing veins using a chemical solution) or even ambulatory phlebectomy (surgical removal of veins). Your vein removal professional in our Lexington or Louisville, KY medical spa will assess your situation and help determine whether laser treatment is your best choice.

The Procedure

To begin the procedure, our vein specialists apply a special laser device to the skin over your spider veins. The laser energy that is emitted causes spider veins to collapse and shrink. The procedure causes minimal discomfort, with a feeling much like a rubber band snap each time the laser energy is emitted. We can provide a topical anesthetic if necessary. After treatment, you can return to your normal activities right away with minimal discomfort. While patient needs vary, most need 1 to 3 treatments spaced about 6 weeks apart for their best results.

ClearV® Laser Vein Treatment

ClearV® is one of the most advanced and effective solutions for treating visible veins, redness, and vascular concerns on the face or body. This innovative laser technology targets unwanted veins beneath the skin with precision and minimal discomfort, leaving the surrounding tissue untouched. Whether addressing facial redness, broken capillaries, or leg veins, ClearV delivers consistent, noticeable improvement with little to no downtime.

Most patients see smoother, clearer skin after just one session, and the results continue to refine as the body naturally clears treated vessels.

Our CaloSpa® specialists personalize each ClearV treatment plan to your needs so you can feel confident showing off your healthiest, most radiant skin.

Laser Vein Removal FAQs

Will It Hurt?

A brief pinching sensation is very common as the laser device releases pulses of energy. Your first spider vein treatment may be slightly more uncomfortable than any additional treatments, and you can always request a topical anesthetic to maximize your comfort.

What about Recovery and Results?

Improving the appearance of spider veins is a gradual process. Each treatment causes the unwanted veins to begin to slowly dissolve, and maximum improvement typically won’t be seen for several weeks, or even months. Right after treatment, it is not uncommon for veins to appear darker and more pronounced before beginning to fade.

What Is the Difference Between Spider Veins & Varicose Veins?

Spider veins are the small, colored blood vessels that most often appear on the face and legs. Varicose veins are generally thicker in diameter and often have a raised appearance. Varicose veins may be a sign of a more serious vascular disorder and should be evaluated by a vein specialist before treatment.

How Long Will My Results Last?

Treated veins do not grow back, but you should keep in mind that over time, new visible veins are likely to develop that will need to be treated to maintain your youthful-looking skin. Many of our patients choose laser hair removal after their vein treatment to complete their new look.

Is Laser Treatment Right for Me?

The best way to be sure that you are a candidate for laser vein treatment is to request a spa consultation online or call today so you can schedule a visit to CaloSpa®.
