Book AppointmentWhat Is Laser Vein Removal?
Usually appearing on the face and legs, spider veins are small, branching blood vessels that are visible through the skin. Caused by many factors, like genetics and age, spider veins can be blue, purple, and red, which makes them difficult to mask. Since these veins usually multiply over the years and become more visible, it is best to seek help at the first signs. To minimize the appearance of veins on the face and body, The Skin Lab performs noninvasive laser vein removal sessions for patients in Owensboro, KY. At your initial consultation, our skin specialists will suggest a customized plan to meet your unique needs and goals for your laser vein removal treatment.
How Does Laser Vein Removal Work?
Laser vein removal treatments are performed in our Owensboro, KY office as an outpatient procedure in about 20 – 40 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas treated. During your laser vein procedure, you will be asked to lie comfortably in a private treatment room as the skin is cleaned. If preferred, a local numbing cream may be applied before your treatment to lessen any discomfort. The laser handpiece will then be passed over the skin so the wavelengths can reach the veins through a series of pulses that don't affect the skin. The blood vessel takes in the laser energy, which causes it to collapse and close. You will be allowed to leave our office after the treatment is done to get back to your normal day.

About UsLaser Vein Removal FAQs
How much does laser vein removal cost?
Your laser vein removal treatment is priced based on how many veins are being addressed and how many sessions are recommended to attain the desired results. During your consultation, we will evaluate your veins, the size of them and where they are located, and develop your custom treatment plan to help estimate a cost. The Skin Lab accepts several payment options and we offer specials on procedures like laser vein removal.
Should I get laser vein removal or sclerotherapy?
Treatments with laser vein removal can help veins of all sizes and types. Based on your needs, a laser treatment may work better than others depending on what is being addressed. Laser vein therapy works well on some veins; however, some patients might prefer sclerotherapy, which uses a solution that is injected directly into the vein. Larger veins such as varicose veins often respond well to laser vein treatments, but if the vein is larger, surgery might be recommended. We will work with you to select your treatment choice depending on your unique needs and goals.
Does the vein go away?
A laser vein treatment will address the vein with a focused beam of energy that heats up the vein to destroy it. The laser system is precise and focuses on the target area, so it won't damage the nearby skin. After the vein has collapsed, it takes around 4 – 6 weeks for the vein to be reabsorbed by the body and disappear.
Where can laser vein removal be used?
Spider veins are often found on the face, thighs, back of the legs, and around the ankles. For areas in both the face and body, laser vein removal can be a good treatment option. Our state-of-the-art laser uses precision when treating the specific vein so the nearby tissue and skin is generally unaffected.
Is laser vein removal painful?
Before your procedure, we typically will apply a numbing cream on your skin. Most patients feel a slight tingling sensation or a sting when the laser focuses on the vein. Many lasers, like ours, have a built-in system that produce a cooling effect. This decreases discomfort while also preventing the laser from becoming too hot, which can cause a burn or additional damage to your skin.
