Clear Skin,
Confident Smile.

Venous lakes are small, blue vascular spots that often appear on the lips, affecting both appearance and confidence.

At NJ Vein Care and Aesthetics Center in Clifton, New Jersey, Gary Nackman, MD, FACS, and his team provide precise, state-of-the-art laser treatment to remove these lesions safely and effectively. Using the Elite+™ laser, venous lakes are targeted with controlled energy that collapses the abnormal vessels. The procedure is minimally invasive, performed in-office, and requires little to no downtime.

Patients often notice immediate darkening of the venous lake, which gradually fades over the following weeks. Treatment restores a more natural, uniform appearance, allowing you to smile confidently again. The team prioritizes both safety and comfort, ensuring a smooth experience from start to finish. With laser therapy, venous lakes can be permanently removed without surgery or extensive recovery.

Precise Laser, Lasting Results

How Venous Lake Treatment Works

Laser treatment for venous lakes begins with a careful evaluation to identify the exact location and size of the lesion.

The Elite+™ Nd:YAG laser is calibrated to target the blood vessels in the venous lake, collapsing them immediately. The laser energy is absorbed by the blood, causing the venous lake to darken initially. Over the next few weeks, the treated area gradually shrinks and blends with surrounding healthy skin. The procedure is quick, performed comfortably in-office, and requires minimal to no downtime.

Ultrasound or visual guidance ensures precise targeting while protecting surrounding tissue. Most patients experience little to no discomfort, and the results are permanent in the treated area. Follow-up visits allow Dr. Nackman to monitor healing and ensure optimal cosmetic outcomes.
