Laser Treatment for Varicose Vein

August 18th, 2008

Laser treatment for varicose veins can assist in getting rid of those problematic and disturbing bulging veins that seem to creep up on your legs. You may not be experiencing any problems at all with your varicose veins, but choose to have treatment just so that your legs will look better.

Laser treatment for varicose veins may not be covered by your insurance if you are having the veins treated for aesthetic reasons rather than for health issues.

Laser treatment for varicose veins uses ultrasound tools that consists of a slender laser fiber that is easily placed inside your vein by way of a small slit that is made at the varicose vein site and delivers pulsed laser heat to the damaged vein wall.

Laser treatment for varicose veins or EVLT openly aims towards the lumen of the blood vessel, shutting off the targeted area and rerouting the flow of blood to other veins in your leg.

Laser treatment for varicose veins takes about 45 minutes and is typically performed as an outpatient procedure; the majority of cases are done in your vein doctor’s office under a local anesthetic.  The force from the laser directly hits your vein walls, decreasing them and shutting down the malfunctioning vein so that the blood is incapable of flowing through it.  This process gets rid of the bulging produced by the varicose vein at its base.  When the varicose vein has been addressed, the blood from your damaged vein is sidetracked to the healthy veins that are in your leg.

In most cases, laser treatment for varicose veins has a much quicker recovery time as well as providing immediate resolution of your symptoms.  There is minimal bruising and you will be encouraged to walk right away after your laser vein treatment.

Skin Rejuvenation New Jersey

August 14th, 2008

If you have damage to your skin caused by the sun or age then skin rejuvenation in New Jersey is something that you are going to want to learn more about. Skin rejuvenation dissipates and even can eliminate any acne scars that you may have.  And if you happen to have a scar that is the result of surgery or trauma their appearance too can be improved by skin rejuvenation in New Jersey.  Skin rejuvenation like dermabrasion can improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles that surround your mouth as well.

Dermabrasion utilizes a wire brush or a diamond wheel with rough edges that takes away the upper layers of your skin. This treatment process damages or injures your skin in order to make it bleed. When the wound begins to heal new skin will grow in the process replacing the damaged skin that was taken away through the dermabrasion process.

The depth of resurfacing is determined by the state and texture of your skin which will also determine how rough the burr or brush is, how fast that it will spin, the gauge of pressure applied as well as how long the procedure will take.

Dermabrasion can be used on all areas of your skin, but typically people request treatment on their face. Dermabrasion can also assist with issues brought on by rosacea, which is an inflammatory skin disorder.

Your cosmetic dermatologist will clean and mark the region of your skin that is going to be treated. A local anesthetic is applied as well as ice 30 minutes prior to the start of the dermabrasion procedure. If you require a deeper dermabrasion then a freezing spray may be necessary.  If your whole face is going to receive the skin rejuvenation treatment for deep scars, then you may need a stronger anesthesia, pain medication, and/or sedation.

Spider Veins NJ

August 11th, 2008

Spider veins in NJ are small clusters of reddish purple veins that appear on your thighs, calves and/or ankles.  Those unsightly cluster of veins that force you to cover your legs and even cause embarrassment when someone sees them.  But the good news is that there are spider veins in NJ treatment options.

There are a variety of reasons behind the causes of spider veins. Some causes are heredity, pregnancy, over weight, hormones, work or activities that involve extended periods of sitting or standing.
In some instances spider veins can create issues like throbbing, a heavy, weighty feeling, night cramps, or itching.  There are times when you may experience spider veins without any symptoms too.

You can benefit from having your spider veins in NJ treated and those benefits include enhancing the overall look of your skin, improving your self-confidence as well as the appearance of your legs, and alleviating any symptoms that you may be experiencing in connection with your spider veins.

One type of spider vein procedure utilizes lasers with a high-energy focused beam.  Vascular lasers are aimed at the hemoglobin in your blood obliterating the blood vessel only while leaving the tissue around it undamaged.

Intense pulsed light therapy is another spider vein in NJ procedure that can eliminate spider veins and it is somewhat like the laser procedure only it has a broadband light rather than a focused light.  The broadband light gets rid of the blood vessel too as well as not damaging the tissue around the vein.

In most cases anesthesia might not be required, but you might be a little sore after treatment. You might also experience bruising and swelling after either treatment as well as noticing some tiny scabs.

Facial Veins

August 7th, 2008

Facial veins can occur when age, heredity, hormones, sun exposure, smoking, skin care treatments and other life experiences take their toll on your skin.  If this sounds like you, don’t fret there are facial vein treatments available to improve your skin’s appearance.

Small superficial veins called telangiectasias or spider veins occur frequently in women, especially after pregnancy. If you have varicose veins, you also may have spider veins. If you have spider veins and varicose veins you can minimize the risk of rapid recurrence of spider veins by treating your varicose veins first.
If you are experiencing medium or large spider facial veins, these are best treated with sclerotherapy, a chemical solution that is injected directly in your vein provoking the facial veins to ultimately disappear. Laser therapy works well on small and medium-sized veins.

Sclerotherapy for facial vein treatment can be done right in your vein doctor’s office and does not require any hospitalization. Depending upon the size of the spider vein being treated, the treatment can take as long as 30 minutes. You won’t need any sedation or anesthesia. Your facial veins will slowly disappear over the next month. Several sclerotherapy sessions may be necessary to achieve the desired improvement. Vein treatments are typically scheduled six weeks apart.

During your facial vein treatment you may experience a temporary burning sensation as the solution enters the vessel. Typically any discomfort you may experience will diminish within minutes. Your facial veins may look darker and seem more visible following therapy, but over the next month, the darkness fades.
Your skin should be protected from sun exposure for up to a year following sclerotherapy facial vein treatment.

Laser Spider Vein Therapy

August 3rd, 2008

Laser spider vein therapy can treat those thread-like colored veins that are most noticeable on the surface of your skin. Spider veins are more common on the legs but they have been found on the face and elsewhere. Spider veins, the correct medical term is telangectasias, can get so bad that they can turn into large bulging varicose veins.

Spider veins and varicose veins are different, because you have one, it doesn’t mean that you will develop the other. Varicose veins tend to be larger, bloated and can be present by themselves on the legs, spider veins are tiny and tend to cluster together.

Laser spider vein therapy utilizes the refined proficiency of lasers for the treatment of spider veins and deeper, reticular veins.   Laser spider vein therapy can be performed right in your vein doctor’s office.  Lasers are safe and people who have tried them have seen significant improvement on leg veins and veins that are stand out on the face, neck, and chest. Laser spider vein therapy has very few side effects and you can resume your regular activities immediately following therapy.

After Laser Spider Vein Therapy

Following laser spider vein therapy you will be able to drive yourself home, resume your regular activities and you will even be encouraged to walk. You will need to wear support hosiery or compression wraps to protect the treated vessels.    Following your laser spider vein therapy, you shouldn’t take any aspirin, ibuprofen or other anti-inflammatory medications for at least 48 hours. Tylenol can be used if you are experiencing any discomfort.   You also shouldn’t take hot baths or sit in a whirlpool or sauna, or use hot compresses or any form of heat to the treated areas for 48 hours following therapy.  You need to avoid direct exposure to sunlight, sun bathing and tanning beds, jogging, high-impact aerobics and swimming for 1-2 weeks after you laser spider vein therapy.

NJ Varicose Vein Prevention

July 21st, 2008

Varicose veins, those bulging, twisted veins that can be seen through your skin, that you’ve tried to hide and don’t want anyone to see are preventable.  Varicose Vein Prevention  is something that everyone can do to help prevent those large unsightly veins in your legs.

Causes of Varicose Veins

Your body has veins that are located near the exterior of the skin that assist the return of oxygen-depleted blood to the heart. As surface vein walls become bigger and deteriorate because of age or heredity, blood can begin to flow backward causing it to collect inside your veins. This can cause an increased pressure that can leave lasting damage to the elastic vein walls.

Varicose veins or spider veins result when the valves that ordinarily prevent the blood from flowing backward become distorted because they have been stretched and bloated out of shape causing them to begin malfunctioning.

Varicose Veins Prevention

• Improve your activity level, for example, exercise with walking or other movements that will improve your circulation
• Elevate your feet while sitting
• Eat a high fiber diet to maintain regular bowel movements
• Maintain a healthy weight
• Don’t wear tight clothing
• Don’t wear shoes with high heels
• Wearing compression stockings can help to support your leg veins and assist in circulation
• Not crossing your legs while sitting will also help with your circulation

You should avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time and wear support stockings as much as possible. It is not recommended that use any form of wrapping bandages, because this needs to be done precisely and accurately to avoid injuring the already damaged veins.
