Broken Vein & Capillary Treatment

You will meet with one of our providers to discuss your treatment goals and timeline. It’s common for areas with many broken veins or larger broken veins to require multiple sessions. Our providers will assess the treatment area and construct a treatment plan for you.

Depending on the area being treated, a topical numbing cream may be applied 45 - 20 minutes before the procedure. Most clients report mild discomfort, similar to a rubber band snap.

Your provider will monitor your skin and discomfort level throughout the procedure. Depending on the treatment area and procedure, barrier cream may be applied at the end of the procedure to calm the skin and smooth any discomfort you may have.

During the first one to five days after your treatment you may experience slight bruising and soreness in the treated area. The treated veins may darken or scab as the body works to break them down. You will start to see the treated veins disappear one week after the procedure, and they will continue to improve in the following two to four weeks.

If you’re completing a series of treatments your provider may ask you to come in for treatment every four to six weeks.

It’s important to take care of your skin post-procedure to keep up the results! Your provider will guide you through at home habits and future treatment timelines to receive the best possible results!

• Stop using retinol at least 10 days before treatment
• Wait to book your treatment if you have had any other facial treatments done in the last 14 days.
• If you have a sunburn or fresh tan (real or sunless) wait two weeks to receive treatment.

• Limit sun exposure for 1 week after treatment, and wear sunscreen daily to protect your skin.
• You’ll notice dark spots rise to the surface of your skin within 1-2 days. This is a sign that the treatment is working! Allow them to flake off on their own over the next 1-2 weeks to prevent hyperpigmentation.
