Just had treatment today (although the ear procedure seemed to be a flop)- I am amazed how the spider veins seem to be gone (for now at least)---
what a weird feeling--- like a million pin pricks, bee stings--- hmmmmm if it helps.... twas worth it

How are your spider veins progressing? Are they still gone? And what kind of laser was used?

Both my husband and I had spider veins treated on our faces with a V-beam laser and it didn't seem to do much. A high setting was used on my husband and he was left with bruises which lasted about 2 weeks. His spider veins initially disappeared, but were back within a month. A low setting was used on me. No bruising, but it didn't seem to do anything for the spider veins either. Fortunately, the treatments were at no cost because my ps's office was experimenting with the machine to see if it was better than the NLite which they'd been using.

I'd still like to get rid of my spider veins so all info is appreciated. Thanks.

I had two spider veins on my face removed about
l2 years ago using the saline solution that they
use on spider veins for the leg - they haven't
come back.
