What is Laser Vein Removal?
Spider veins, varicose veins, and broken capillaries are caused by genetics, lifestyle factors, and age. They can appear red, purple, or blue, making them difficult to hide. Spider veins are small, visible blood vessels typically found on the face and upper thighs, while varicose veins are larger veins that may protrude through the skin, often on the legs. Because these veins tend to worsen over time, seeking treatment early is recommended. At Med Spa at Seena One, board-certified physician Dr. Mukhtar Anees and our skilled laser technicians use Lumenis M22™ laser technology to provide noninvasive vein removal for residents of Fort Worth and Burleson, TX. During your consultation, Dr. Anees will develop a personalized treatment plan to target your areas of concern and help you feel confident in your appearance.

How Does Laser Vein Removal Work?
Using Lumenis M22 technology, Dr. Anees or a laser technician performs the procedure in our Burleson, TX office. The treatment typically takes 10 – 20 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated. During the session, the skin is cleansed and a thin layer of gel is applied. The laser emits pulses of light energy that target spider or varicose veins without harming surrounding tissue. The heat collapses the vein walls, rerouting blood through nearby vessels. You can resume most normal activities immediately after treatment.
Recovery from Laser Vein Removal
Following your session, you may experience redness, bruising, swelling, or mild discomfort. These effects usually resolve within 7 – 10 days. Wearing support or compression garments can speed healing, and sunscreen should be applied to protect treated skin. Results may be noticeable quickly, but optimal outcomes often require multiple treatments spaced over several weeks. New spider veins may form over time, so follow-up sessions might be necessary.
Laser Vein Removal FAQ
How much does laser vein removal cost?
Costs depend on the number of veins treated and the total sessions required. During your consultation, Dr. Anees will evaluate your veins and develop a customized treatment plan with pricing details. Membership programs and specials may also be available to help reduce costs.
Should I choose laser vein removal or sclerotherapy?
Laser vein removal can treat veins of various sizes and types. Some veins respond better to sclerotherapy, which involves injecting a solution to collapse the vein. Large varicose veins may require surgery. Dr. Anees will help determine the best treatment for your specific needs.
Does the vein go away?
The laser collapses the targeted vein walls, which are then reabsorbed by the body within 4 – 6 weeks.
Where can laser vein removal be used?
Laser vein removal can be applied to spider veins on the face, thighs, lower legs, and around the ankles. The Lumenis M22 system allows precise treatment without affecting surrounding skin.
Is laser vein removal painful?
A topical anesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort. Some patients feel a mild tingling or stinging sensation. Our laser system also includes a cooling mechanism to reduce discomfort and prevent overheating.
Is laser vein removal permanent?
Laser treatments can permanently reduce the appearance of spider veins. However, new veins may form over time due to genetics or lifestyle factors. Follow-up treatments may be necessary to maintain results.
