LASER VASCULAR REMOVAL

LASER VASCULAR REMOVAL

Laser Vascular Removal is currently the gold standard to remove facial and leg teleangectasia, vascular birthmarks, port wine stain rosacea, spider and thread veins. Based on the principle of selective photo-thermolysis, a laser light is absorbed by the haemoglobin within the blood in the vascular lesion and converted into heat, to create a selective thermo-injury.

At The Rejuvenation Clinic & MediSpa, we have been offering laser vascular removal for the past 10 years. We have treated thousands of patients without any long term complications. In particular Dr Russo has been instrumental in the 90 s, in the design, development and FDA approval of a variety of laser vascular removal systems and has over 15 years of clinical expertise. He was the first physician to develop and use the Long Pulse Nd:YAG laser for vascular removal, a technology now utilised worldwide and, over the years, he has trained hundreds of physicians around the world.
HOW IT WORKS ? Based on the principle of selective photo-thermolysis, a laser light is absorbed by the haemoglobin within the blood in the vascular lesion and converted into heat, to create a selective thermo-injury. Usually a course of 3 treatments are required, at an interval of 4 to 8 weeks, in order to treat all lesions. Depending on the colour of your skin and size of the vascular lesion, a variety of laser systems can be utilised including IPL, KTP and Nd:YAG. Dr Russo has extensive clinical experience with all these lasers that are all available at The Rejuvenation Clinic & MediSpa. Depending to your skin type and vascular lesion, Dr Russo will prescribe the correct laser treatment in order to archive a long lasting result without any side effects or complications.

The treatment is generally not painful, with a sensation similar to a rubber band been snapped on your skin. Modern laser systems are very fast and normally takes only few minutes to treat a small area. Following the treatment is recommended to avoid direct sun exposure (sun-bathing) for up to 2 weeks and the use of an SPF product for up to 4 weeks following the treatment.

All laser treatments are performed exclusively by Dr Mario Luca Russo.
