Vasculase treatment involves minimal downtime, allowing most patients to resume normal activities immediately. You may experience mild redness, warmth, or slight swelling at the treatment site, similar to a mild sunburn, which typically resolves within 24-48 hours. Treated veins may appear darker temporarily before fading over 2-6 weeks. Avoid strenuous exercise and hot baths for 48 hours to support healing.

Results are visible within 2-6 weeks as treated spider veins fade, with full clearance often achieved after 1-3 sessions spaced 6-8 weeks apart, depending on vein size and number. Results are long-lasting, often permanent for treated veins, though new spider veins may develop over time due to genetics or lifestyle factors. Maintenance sessions can help sustain clear skin.

Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners for 4 weeks prior to prevent skin sensitivity. Discontinue blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen) or supplements (e.g., fish oil, vitamin E) for 7-10 days before, if approved by your doctor, to reduce bruising risks. Shave the treatment area if needed, but avoid waxing or plucking for 2 weeks prior. Share your medical history and skin concerns during your consultation to ensure Vasculase is suitable.
