Vascular conditions present themselves in many different forms and are exceedingly common. Whether you are dealing with visible red, blue, or purple veins, diffuse redness, or a consistently flushed appearance, these issues can be extremely frustrating and difficult to conceal with make-up. The underlying causes of redness and visible veins vary, but they are all linked to abnormalities within the blood vessels of the skin.
In our clinic, we encounter a wide array of vascular conditions and are fully equipped to perform the following treatments:
Many patients with vascular issues feel less confident and want a clearer, smoother skin tone. If you are suffering from any vascular condition, we can help you achieve an even skin tone in approximately 1-3 laser vein removal treatments.
Laser Vein Removal Melbourne Before & After Pictures:
How does laser vein removal treatment work?
For this procedure, either ourcosmetic doctor or a highly trained nurse under the supervision of our doctors will use the Candela Vascular Laser device. This state-of-the-art system employs advanced technology that targets blood vessels deep within the skin while preserving the surrounding tissues. The heat generated by the laser causes the targeted vessels to shut down, effectively preventing blood from flowing through the affected veins.
When the treatment is successful, the veins disappear, significantly reducing the vascular conditions that were once visible on the skin's surface. Over the following weeks, the body naturally clears out any defective veins, leaving behind a healthier network of blood vessels. This treatment is safe and can deliver impressive results in a very short period.
Our rosacea laser treatments and broken capillaries removal treatments have proven to be highly successful and are particularly popular among our patients.
What can you expect during laser vein removal treatment?
Before your laser vein removal in Melbourne, you will have a consultation with one of our cosmetic doctors. They will discuss your treatment goals and determine how many sessions you will need to achieve your desired cosmetic results.
Many patients observe significant improvements after just one session. Depending on the severity, location, and type of vascular condition, up to three sessions might be necessary to achieve optimal results. While smaller veins can disappear immediately after a treatment, larger veins may gradually fade over the next few weeks. Treatment for vascular conditions like rosacea may need yearly maintenance, such as laser therapy, to reduce redness effectively.
It is also crucial to avoid sun exposure for four weeks after your treatment. This precaution ensures that your skin will not be overly sensitive to the light therapy, thereby minimising the risk of unwanted side effects. After the treatment, you may experience some swelling and redness, which will typically subside within 1-4 days.
To aid in the healing process, our cosmetic doctor may prescribe a cream for you to apply to the treated areas.
During the Treatment.
During your laser vein treatment Melbourne session, a layer of gel may sometimes be applied to the treatment area. Cool air may also be used to maintain a safe and comfortable temperature for your skin.
A handheld laser device will then be employed to apply successive laser pulses across the treatment area. For larger broken capillaries or veins on the nose or face, another specialised vascular handpiece will be used to target those areas individually.
The procedure is generally tolerable, with discomfort often described as similar to the flick of a rubber band, accompanied by a short burst of heat sensation with each pulse. After your treatment, it is reasonable to expect a pink to reddened appearance of the skin. This normal skin response will subside within 1-2 days, revealing a clearer complexion with reduced visible vessels.
Any pain or heat in the treated area can be managed with a cool compress at home. Moisturising creams can also be applied to alleviate any discomfort during the initial healing phase.
By choosing laser vein removal Melbourne, you are opting for a safe, effective, and non-invasive way to address vascular conditions, restore your confidence, and achieve a clearer, more even complexion. Whether you are dealing with spider veins on the face, rosacea, or broken capillaries, our laser treatments offer a reliable solution.

Before And After
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the duration of the results from laser vein removal?
Laser vein removal is a permanent solution for the treated veins; however, it does not prevent new veins from developing. Maintenance treatments may be necessary to achieve lasting clearance in some patients.
What can I expect during the recovery process?
Post-treatment, your skin will probably appear pink to red. You may have slight swelling that will go down in a few hours, but sometimes it can take a few days to completely disappear. During this period, your skin might feel similar to a sunburn, and you can alleviate the discomfort with cool compresses and moisturising creams.
Is it okay to wear make-up while healing?
Absolutely, you can begin using mineral make-up on the treated area starting from the second day post-treatment.
How painful is the laser vein removal treatment?
The procedure generally causes mild to moderate discomfort. To ease this, you can use cool air or ice packs.
Are there activities I should avoid after the treatment?
Avoid alcohol, aspirin, and heat sources like hot baths, intense exercise, and saunas for three days after the procedure.
