Im on a low dose of accutane.No facial laser treatments, but can i have a light laser treatment(yag)for a few tiny spider veins on my LEGS? Or should you not have laser on any part of your body while on accutane?Is there a difference between laser on face or legs, concerning healing? Or can i just stop taking it a week before treatment and restart taking it after the laser treatment? Will it have adverse effects on the healing results of my legs if i take the accutane after the laser treatment?
Yes. Spider vein treatment with laser or Sclerotherapy is perfectly safe while taking Accutane. Patients on Accutane should avoid laser resurfacing type procedures on the face while taking Accutane and for at least 6 months after completing Accutane therapy.

For vessels on the face that appear reddish and are small caliber (< 1mm), the pulsed dye laser or the KTP laser can be used to reduce the appearance of these telangiectasias. For deeper blue vessels on the forehead, a longer length wavelength laser is needed to adequately treat these vessels, such as the long pulsed Nd: YAG laser. Typically, multiple treatments may be necessary to result in the desired amount of improvement. Surgical removal is rarely indicated for the removal of forehead veins. Other options may include Sclerotherapy, which involves injection of an agent into these vessels to cause them to close off.
I am 37 and over the last year, have a very visible network of blue veins on my upper chest. I know this is due to aging and thin skin. Can these be treated using a laser or injection? I would be happy to be 50% clear.
If the vessels are small and superficial (more reddish purple) than the pulsed dye laser can be used to reduce the appearance of vessels on the chest. If the vessels are deeper and more blue, then a longer wavelength laser, such as the long pulsed Nd: YAG laser, can be used to reduce their appearance. An evaluation by a dermatologist or plastic surgeon with experience in lasers is indicated. Sclerotherapy, which involves injecting an agent into these small vessels to cause them to close off, may also be an option.
