FAQ:
Leg & Facial
Vein Treatment (LV Applicator)
How does Leg & Facial Vein Treatment with elos LV Applicator work?
The LV Applicator combines safe and effective levels of laser and radiofrequency
(electric current) energies to remove leg veins and other unwanted vessels.
Both laser and radiofrequency have been used separately for decades in medicine
and surgery, but the LV exclusively combines light and electric energy for ideal
treatment outcomes improve leg veins and vascular lesions with a very
low risk of side effects.
What results can
one expect from the LV Applicator treatment?
The LV can improve unsightly leg veins, facial spider veins and other unwanted
vascular lesions. Spider veins and larger blue-green vessels on legs will gradually
fade and can be treated until patient satisfaction has been reached.
How many treatments
are required?
Most patients will have between 1-3 treatments. Some vessels may require more
than 3 treatment sessions.
How often are treatments
done?
Treatment sessions are typically 6-8 weeks apart. Smaller spider veins may be
treated every 4 weeks.
How is LV Applicator
treatment tolerated by the patient?
The sensation may be described as a hot pinch. Patients tolerate
treatment well by use of either cooling the skin during treatment and/or use
of a topical anesthetic cream that numbs the skin.
Is treatment with
the LV Applicator safe?
ANY medical laser procedure has risk of side effects such as superficial blistering,
crusting, and pigmentary changes in the skin. These risks are rare and usually
quickly resolved. The LV incorporates several technological advances that focus
on patient safety to minimize these risks and provide greater satisfaction.
The laser handpiece is also cooled for skin protection and comfort during the
procedure.
Who should be treated
with the LV Applicator?
Anyone with unwanted leg veins or vascular lesions may be a candidate for treatment
with the LV. Removal of vascular lesions and veins with elos technology
(laser and radio frequency) is a safe and effective alternative for patients
who want non-invasive approach to vascular treatment. LV is the clear choice
for patients who do not like needles or who have had adverse reaction to solutions
that are injected into the vein during Sclerotherapy.
