I recently started offering VeinWave, which is an exciting new procedure that has been great for my patients. It has been used in Europe for over 10 years, and recently received FDA approval in the United States. I am a board certified dermatologist, and have used many of the lasers that claim to be the most effective. VeinWave by far has been the best treatment for the small thread-like spider veins on the face and legs. There are only about 20 machines in the country, and 2 in the state of Georgia, one of which is mine, and my patients have been extremely pleased with the results after only 1 or 2 treatments.
