What is laser spider removal?
Align Treatment Clinic offers laser spider vein removal as a cosmetic procedure to help improve the appearance of the skin. In this procedure, a highly concentrated beam of light is directed at the spider veins, using advanced laser technology. The laser causes the spider veins to heat up and break down, which destroys them and improves the appearance of the skin.
Is the procedure safe for everyone?
This treatment is safe and effective, and can help to make the skin look smoother and more evenly toned. Our experienced team of professionals is dedicated to providing the highest quality care and ensuring that our patients are comfortable and satisfied with their results.

Things to do before and after procedure
Before laser spider removal
Some general things to consider before undergoing laser spider vein removal include:
-
Stop taking any medications or supplements that can thin the blood or interfere with the procedure. This can include medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain herbal supplements. Your healthcare provider can provide a complete list of medications and supplements to avoid.
-
Avoid exposing the treatment area to sunlight for several weeks before the procedure. Sun exposure can make the skin more sensitive and increase the risk of complications.
-
Avoid waxing, plucking, or using hair removal creams on the treatment area. These methods can irritate the skin and increase the risk of side effects.
-
Avoid using any creams, lotions, or other products on the treatment area that can interfere with the laser. This can include retinol products and certain types of makeup.
After laser spider removal
After the laser spider vein removal procedure, there are also some steps that you can take to help ensure the best possible results. These can include:
-
Avoid exposing the treated area to sunlight for several weeks after the procedure. This can help to prevent complications and promote healing.
-
Avoid activities that can cause excessive sweating or overheating of the treated area. This can include hot showers, saunas, and strenuous exercise.
-
Avoid wearing tight clothing or clothing that rubs against the treated area. This can irritate the skin and delay healing.
Use any medications or ointments as directed by your healthcare provider. This can include pain relievers and topical creams to help reduce swelling and discomfort.
