Laser Vein Removal in Chicago, IL

Searching for a noninvasive way to remove spider veins in highly visible areas, like the legs and face? Caused by many factors, like age and genetics, spider veins can be difficult to mask. Since these veins will progressively get larger or multiply over time, they will only become more visible. Lincoln Park Aesthetics offers nonsurgical laser vein removal sessions for Chicago, IL men and women. Our innovative laser system is precise and will not affect the surrounding veins or skin. Explore your options with laser vein removal at your earliest convenience.  

Nonsurgical vein reduction sessions at Lincoln Park Aesthetics can minimize the look of small to medium-sized veins on the face and body. Commonly known as spider veins, these visible blood vessels are rarely a medical issue; however, they are considered a cosmetic problem. Affected people tend to avoid certain clothing (such as shorts and swimsuits) or use a large amount of makeup to cover up their spider veins. Laser vein removal is best for people who have overall good health, do not have blood clots, and are not pregnant.

Laser vein removal sessions are completed in our Chicago, IL office as an outpatient procedure in about 20 – 40 minutes based on the number of veins being addressed. In your session, you will relax in a reclined position in a private treatment room as your skin is prepared. If requested, a topical anesthetic can be applied beforehand to reduce any potential discomfort. The handheld laser device will emit targeted energy to reach the veins through multiple pulses. The abnormal blood vessel will soak in the energy of the laser. The vein will respond by closing in the walls of the vein. You will be allowed to leave our office right after the treatment to get back to your normal activities.

Following your laser vein removal session, you may notice swelling, redness, and bruising. These short-lived side effects should disappear in 7 – 10 days. For optimal healing, compression or support garments may be worn to improve blood circulation. It's necessary to avoid prolonged sun exposure, and we encourage you to apply sunscreen frequently to the treated skin. Some patients see visible improvements right away, but results will vary for every person. During your initial consultation with our aesthetics team, we will make recommendations on how many sessions will be necessary to get the nicest result. New spider veins will likely appear in time so follow-up treatments may be performed as needed. This treatment will not prevent new spider veins from forming in the same spot or elsewhere on your skin.

Rather than covering or concealing visible blood vessels on your face or body, learn about noninvasive laser vein reduction at Lincoln Park Aesthetics in Chicago, IL. Our team can implement our laser to improve the look of your complexion. During your private consultation, we will assess your spider veins and develop a personalized treatment plan to best fit your goals.
