Contact UsWhat is Laser Vein Treatment?
Typically found on the face and legs, spider veins are small, branching blood vessels that are visible underneath the skin. Caused by many factors, like genetics and age, spider veins can be blue, red, or purple, which makes them difficult to mask. As spider veins usually multiply over the years and lead to stronger visibility, it's smart to seek treatment when they first appear. Wahine Health offers nonsurgical laser vein removal treatments for Wailea, HI individuals to reduce the visibility of blood vessels on the body and face. In your private consultation, Dr. Carrie Giordano will create a customized plan to meet your needs and goals for your laser vein treatment.
What Are the Benefits of Laser Vein Treatment?
At Wahine Health, Dr. Giordano utilizes advanced techniques to address spider veins. Our laser vein treatment offers several benefits, such as:
- Reduced visibility of prominent veins
- Alleviation of inflammation and discomfort
- No need for compression garments
- Enhanced overall aesthetics and well-being
Am I a Candidate for Laser Vein Treatment?
Laser vein removal sessions at Wahine Health can reduce the appearance of small to medium-sized veins on the face and body. Often referred to as spider veins, these visible vessels are generally harmless but may be considered undesirable. Many women choose to cover these veins with makeup or avoid wearing certain clothing, like swimsuits and shorts. Laser vein treatments are an excellent option for individuals in good health, with no history of blood clots, and who are not pregnant.
What Happens During Laser Vein Treatment?
Laser vein removal treatments are performed in our Wailea, HI office as an outpatient procedure in about 20 – 40 minutes based on the number of areas being addressed. For your procedure, you will be asked to relax in a reclined position in one of our treatment rooms as the affected area is prepared. At your request, a local numbing cream may be applied before the session to minimize any potential discomfort. The laser is passed over the skin so the wavelengths can target the spider veins with multiple pulses that don't harm the skin. The blood vessel absorbs the energy of the laser, which collapses the walls of the veins. You will be able to leave immediately to resume your normal activities.
After your laser vein removal treatment, you may have bruising, redness, and swelling, but these side effects should subside in around 1 – 2 weeks. For faster healing, support or compression garments may be worn to increase your blood circulation. It is important to avoid extended sun exposure, and you are encouraged to use sunscreen on treated skin. Some patients see improvements right away, but the results' timing will differ for each person. At your consultation with Dr. Giordano, realistic expectations will be discussed, as well as suggestions on how many sessions are necessary to achieve your best results. New spider veins will probably form over time so follow-up sessions may be performed as needed.
Wahine Health Reviews
Dr. G changed my life, she gave me something I thought was lost after 39. I spent countless hours, days, and money trying to restore and fix what stress, age, gimmicks and empty promises were taking from me. I honestly had given up and just tried to "learn" to accept myself with all theses obstacles or "flaws" I honestly felt bad after our first visit as I unloaded all my past negative experiences and doubt she would do any better than then last guy I gave all my money and time. I wish I had all day and all the words to tell you about my exceptional experience. This review is long over due my journey is still going but I am not alone with all the staff, Bonnie, Oceania and others plus my girl Dr G. my journey so far has been nothing short of life changing. Thank you with all me heart, Adiel Cline

Really great office, Ellen thank you for taking your time and going above and beyond to get to the button of things.
Dr. Giordano is a problem-solving, respectful, considerate and caring doctor and patient educator.
Dr. G. helped me get my health and my life back while going through a difficult time with menopause. She is not only highly knowledgeable regarding best practices in hormone replacement therapy but she genuinely cares about her patients, she is warm and kind and has a great sense of humor. I recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an amazing women’s care provider.
