Confident Smile, Clear Lips
What Is Venous Lake Laser Treatment?
Venous lakes are small, blue vascular lesions that most commonly appear on the lower lip, often affecting confidence and appearance.
At NJ Vein Care and Aesthetics Center in Clifton, New Jersey, Gary Nackman, MD, FACS, and his team provide advanced laser treatment to safely and permanently remove these lesions. Using the state-of-the-art Elite+™ laser, venous lakes are targeted with precision, minimizing discomfort and downtime. The treatment is quick, in-office, and designed for lasting results without invasive surgery.
Many patients notice immediate darkening of the venous lake, which gradually shrinks over the following weeks. This procedure restores a more natural, uniform appearance to the lips. Laser therapy is highly effective, safe, and tailored to each patient’s needs. With expert care, patients regain both comfort and confidence in their smile.
Precise, Lasting Treatment
How Venous Lake Laser Treatment Works
Treatment begins with a careful evaluation of the venous lake to determine the optimal laser settings.
The Elite+™ Nd:YAG laser is calibrated to target the blood vessels in the lesion without affecting surrounding healthy tissue. Laser energy is absorbed by the blood, causing the venous lake to collapse immediately. After treatment, the lesion darkens temporarily before gradually shrinking over the next few weeks.
The procedure is minimally invasive, quick, and requires little to no downtime. Follow-up visits allow Dr. Nackman to monitor healing and ensure optimal results. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, often described as a slight snapping sensation. With precise targeting, the treatment effectively removes the lesion while preserving a natural appearance.
