I would suggest either a VBeam by Candela or a 1064 Yag. Thank you for your question and good luck with everything.
If indeed the visible vessel is a vein, then sclerotherapy (similar to what is done for spider veins of the leg) can be performed to eliminate it. The vessel will, of course, need to be accurately "hit" with a needle so that the sclerosant can be placed inside the vessel, which causes it to spasm and seal shut. You may have a bruise, or need more than one injection session to completely eliminate it, but an experienced doctor who does lots of vein injections will be able to give you advice about this. Other vascular lesions may be treated with other means, so accurate diagnosis is important before giving definitive advice regarding recommended treatment. Laser treatment or surgical excision may be other treatment options in some situations.
Thank you for posting your question.A picture would have been very helpful in providing guidance.Since a lot of different pathologies can cause what you are describing, there are many options of treatment and treatment depends on what it is exactly. I recommend an in person examination.
Unfortunately without seeing you, or at least a good picture, it would be nearly impossible to determine the ideal treatment for your concern or condition. It is best to have it evaluated prior to any treatment to determine what it is exactly. If it is a vessel, we have had excellent results treating vessels with our Nd:YAG laser. Good luck Dr. Grant Stevens
if it is indeed a vein microphlebectomy or laser therapy would probably be the safest options. must rule out avascular malformations and hemangiomas prior to treatment.
