CoolGlide Vein Therapy

The Cutera CoolGlide treats a broad range of vessels from tiny spider veins to deep blue reticular veins.  The CoolGlide treat combines the ideal laser wavelength with the most flexible parameters to deliver a superior vascular laser system with treats patients of all skin tones (dark, light or tanned) quickly, safely, and effectively.  We can remove unsightly veins from all parts of the body.  While small facial veins, spider veins and large blue leg veins can be treated with excellent results, knotty varicose veins are not good candidates for the treatment.

The CoolGlide system deliver pulses of light energy which causes the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually destroying the vessel which is later reabsorbed by your body. Blood flow will then be redirected to veins deeper below your skin's surface, where it should be.

What to expect:
Most patients experience a stinging sensation as the pulses of energy are delivered through the hand piece.  Often, patients find one or two treatments are sufficient.  however individual results vary so ask your medical professional about your specific condition.

Pre and Post Treatment Instructions:
Following the treatment, you can expect some redness and bruising.  When larger veins are treated, a tan or brownish pigment may persist for a few weeks or months following treatment.  Patients who have leg vein treatments may be advised to wear support hose for a short period of time.
