Telangiectasias, known as spider veins, are small, dilated blood vessels visible near the skin’s surface. They often appear as red, blue, or purple thread-like lines and can develop anywhere on the body, though they are most common on the face, legs, and chest. Genetics, sun damage, hormonal changes, or prolonged standing or sitting may cause these broken capillaries. While typically harmless, telangiectasias can cause self-consciousness and discomfort, prompting many individuals to seek effective treatments.

How it Works
How it Works
1. Advanced Laser Therapy:
Laser technology focuses light energy on blood vessels, heating them and causing them to collapse and become less visible. The procedure is exact, leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during the session.
2. Sclerotherapy for Leg Veins:
Sclerotherapy involves injecting a solution into a vein to make it shrink and disappear. This method is highly effective for larger spider veins in the legs.
3. Tailored Combination Treatments :
At Dermestetics, we often combine treatments, like laser therapy and sclerotherapy, to achieve optimal results. We tailor each session to your skin needs to enhance clarity and achieve a more even complexion.
Complementary Treatments
- Hydrafacial: Cleanses and hydrates the skin to improve overall radiance.
- Chemical Peels: Lessens discoloration and promotes skin regeneration.
- Microneedling: Promotes collagen production to enhance skin’s appearance and reduce signs of aging. The effectiveness of the peel in addressing skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne scars is directly related to its depth and strength.
