Visible expanded coils – so-called. telangiectasias – on the face, nose, décolleté or lower limbs are among the most common aesthetic and dermatological problems. They affect both women and men and can be related to:
- genetic predisposition (weakened vascular wall)
- excessive exposure to sun or frost
- thermal fluctuations
- using corticoid creams
- or they may be a manifestation of skin diseases – for example rosacea
Modern laser treatment
Our workplace uses Alma Harmony XL PRO IPL laser, which is gentle and highly effective in reducing visible veins and the symptoms of rosacea. IPL (intense pulsed light) technology targets the red pigment (hemoglobin) in dilated veins and causes them to gradually absorb - without damaging the surrounding skin.
For localized individual coils, it is also possible to use electrocoagulation, where the coil is thermally sealed with a thin needle.
Treatment course
- outpatient procedure without the need for anesthesia
- application of cooling gel and eye protection
- Slight redness after the procedure is common and temporary.
- Protection from UV radiation and avoidance of thermal effects are recommended
Result
Noticeable improvement after just 1–2 sessions. The number of treatments depends on the extent of the coils, usually 2–4 procedures spaced several weeks apart.
