What to Expect During Your Vein Therapy Appointment

During your vein therapy appointment, Dr. Giselle Villar will assess your specific vein concerns and discuss your aesthetic goals to create a personalized treatment plan. Depending on your unique needs, your provider may recommend a combination of Cutera Laser therapy and Sclerotherapy to optimize your results. Prior to your treatment, you may be advised to avoid certain skincare products, and you will receive specific pre-treatment instructions to ensure the best outcome. It’s important to note that following the treatment, some redness or bruising may occur. When larger veins are treated, a tan or brownish pigmentation may persist for a few weeks or months. Patients undergoing leg vein treatments may be advised to wear support hose for a short period. After treatment, most patients can resume their normal activities immediately. However, it is recommended to avoid vigorous activities, like strenuous exercise, for the first 24-hour’s post-treatment. Additionally, using sunscreen on any treated areas exposed to the sun is advised, and its good practice to limit sun exposure.
