Fotona Nd:YAG Laser · Sydney

Vein & Vascular Lesion Treatment

Fotona's Nd:YAG laser is designed to target and reduce the appearance of superficial vascular lesions including spider veins, thread veins, and vascular blemishes on the face and body. Performed by qualified practitioners in Sydney.

About This Treatment

Targeting Visible Vascular Lesions

Fotona’s Nd:YAG 1064nm laser is designed to selectively interact with oxyhemoglobin in superficial blood vessels. The thermal effect may cause treated vessels to collapse and gradually become less visible. This non-surgical approach may be suitable for spider veins, thread veins, and certain vascular blemishes. Individual suitability is assessed during consultation.

Key Benefits

Why Choose Fotona?

Advanced laser technology designed to deliver targeted, effective results

Targeted Approach

The Nd:YAG wavelength is designed to selectively interact with the pigment within blood vessels while minimising impact on surrounding tissue.

Non-Surgical Option

May be used as an alternative or complementary approach to other vein treatments. No incisions are required.

Suitable for Face and Body

May be used for superficial vascular lesions on the face, legs, and body, subject to individual assessment.

Minimal Disruption

The treatment is designed to support a quick return to normal activities. Temporary redness or bruising may occur.

Gradual Improvement

Treated vessels may gradually become less visible as the body's natural processes resolve the treated tissue.

Professional Assessment

All vascular concerns are assessed by qualified practitioners prior to treatment to confirm suitability.

How it Works

Fotona's precise laser energy interacts with tissue at a cellular level

01

Selective Interaction

The 1064nm wavelength is designed to be absorbed by oxyhemoglobin in the target vessel with relative selectivity over surrounding tissue.

02

Vessel Wall Effect

The absorbed energy causes a thermal effect in the vessel wall, which may cause the vessel to close and become less visible over time.

03

Natural Resolution

The treated vessel may be progressively reabsorbed by the body's natural immune processes, reducing its visible appearance
