 Veinwave
Veinwave™ is a revolutionary technique used by doctors around the world to eliminate spider veins on the legs and fine thread veins, known as telangiectasia from the face. Utilizing the principle of thermocoagulation, Veinwave is the only treatment of its kind having received 510k clearance to market by the FDA. VeinGogh, a device being marketed as competing technology to Veinwave is not FDA approved for the treatment of veins. Veinwave is FDA approved specifically for the treatment of spider veins. Veinwave has become the treatment of choice for practitioners and patients alike, many having been failed by lasers and other light based systems. Veinwave provides a relatively painless walk in walk out procedure, with no risk of bruising, scarring or pigmentation.
The effect of the treatment is 'instant' - you see the veins disappearing immediately. Some patients leave the treatment without any real visible sign on the skin, other than the lack of veins, and some with more sensitive skin may suffer minor reddening which should disappear within a few days if not hours. The sensation to most is similar to a warm pin prick, others relate it to a minor sting but which does not linger - often it depends upon the location of the treatment. Either way, any discomfort is said to be incomparable to the pain of some laser based treatments and is undoubtedly more effective.
