Can lasers be used to treat spider veins on the legs?

Yes, most cosmetic physicians recommend laser as the first line therapy for spider veins. There are numerous types of lasers available and they all work in a similar fashion. Lasers can rapidly destroy spider veins in a short time. Laser does not involve any injections nor does it take a long time to perform. Depending on the number of spider veins, a few sessions may be required. Laser therapy also offers a faster recovery. However, laser does sting and expensive. After laser, spider veins do recur.
