Laser removal of vascular lesions

Just about everyone has a few visible blood vessels (telangectasia) or other vascular lesions visible on their skin.

Vascular blemishes can be successfully lightened or removed with modern laser technology. A laser removes the blemish with the energy of light, leaving normal skin alone. Vascular blemishes are either lightened or removed when the laser light passes through the skin. The laser light is absorbed by the red color of the blood inside the vessel and produces heat which shrinks the blood vessel.

The Pulsed Dye and YAG lasers used are two of the most advanced lasers available for the removal of vascular blemishes.
