Spider Vein Removal in Hollywood FL — Laser Treatment Guide
Spider veins — small, web-like clusters of red, blue, or purple veins visible through the skin — affect up to 60% of adults. In South Florida where shorts and swimwear are year-round, they're a common concern. Laser treatment at Pay & Go in Hollywood, FL offers a non-invasive solution with no needles, no surgery, and no downtime.
How Does Laser Spider Vein Removal Work?
The Candela GentleMax Pro targets oxyhemoglobin in the blood vessel. Laser energy heats the blood within the vein, causing it to coagulate. The body naturally reabsorbs the treated vessel over 4–12 weeks. You will see gradual fading with each session.
How Many Sessions Do You Need?
Most clients see 50–80% clearance after 1–3 sessions. Small facial spider veins often clear in one session. Larger leg clusters may need 3–5 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart.
What Causes Spider Veins?
- Genetics — family history is the #1 factor
- Prolonged standing or sitting
- Hormonal changes (pregnancy, birth control, menopause)
- Sun exposure — very common in South Florida
- Excess body weight
After Treatment Care
- Wear SPF 30+ on treated areas
- Avoid direct sun for 2 weeks after treatment
- Compression stockings recommended for leg treatments
- Treated veins will darken then gradually fade over 4–12 weeks
