FOTONA SMOOTH LIP LASER
$499 per session
3 Sessions $1250
Spider veins are small, damaged blood vessels that appear on the surface of the skin as red, purple, or blue lines on the face and body. While harmless, they are a common aesthetic concern that can affect confidence.
Fotona laser spider vein removal uses long-pulse Nd:YAG laser energy at 1064nm to precisely target and collapse visible spider veins without needles or surgery. The laser energy is absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood, converting it to heat that seals the vein wall and causes it to gradually fade and disappear. Surrounding skin tissue remains completely unaffected.
WHAT IT TREATS
Spider veins on the face
Spider veins on the legs and body
Small broken capillaries
Facial redness and vascular lesions
Small red or purple vein clusters
WHAT TO EXPECT
A cooling gel is applied to the treatment area before the session. The Fotona laser handpiece is passed over the spider veins, delivering precise Nd:YAG energy that targets the blood vessel without affecting surrounding skin. A mild stinging or warming sensation may be felt during treatment. Sessions typically take 20 to 45 minutes depending on the area and number of veins treated.
Some redness and mild swelling is normal immediately after treatment and typically resolves within a few hours to a few days.
Frequently Asked Questions
-

-
Approximately 20 to 30 minutes per session.
-
Spider veins gradually fade over several weeks after each session as the body naturally absorbs the collapsed vessel.
-
The number of sessions depends on the size, depth, and number of veins being treated. A single session rarely achieves complete removal. We will give you a clear recommendation during your free consultation after assessing the treatment area.
-
Some redness and mild swelling is normal for a few hours to a few days after treatment. Normal activities can generally be resumed the same day with some precautions.
-
Yes. The Fotona Nd:YAG laser is safe and effective for all skin types including darker skin tones.

Treated veins do not return once successfully collapsed. However, new spider veins may develop over time due to genetics, sun exposure, or lifestyle factors. Maintenance sessions can address new veins as they appear.
-
No. This treatment is designed for small to medium spider veins on the surface of the skin. Large, bulging varicose veins require a different medical procedure and should be assessed by a vascular specialist.
-
Cool the treated area with cold packs after the session. Avoid massaging or rubbing the skin for 5 to 7 days. Avoid harsh soaps, alcohol-based products, and scrubs for several days. Avoid hot baths, saunas, and steam rooms for 2 weeks. Avoid sun exposure for one month and apply SPF 50 daily. Reduce physical activity for one week. If veins were treated on the legs, compression stockings are recommended for 7 to 10 days.
