The 1064 YAG Laser Treatment safely and effectively reduces the appearance of vessels or venous lakes. During treatment, the blood in the affected area absorbs the laser light and rapidly increases the temperature, altering the cells of the vessel. The 1064 YAG Laser Treatment causes selective heating of the target with minimal to no heating of the non-targeted tissue. This technique sends very strong bursts of light through the skin onto the vessels. This makes the lesion slowly fade and disappear.
