Looking for spider vein treatment in Richmond Hill? We use focused laser to fade small red and purple veins on the legs and face, with little downtime.
Spider veins are small red, blue or purple vessels close to the skin’s surface, common on the legs and face. They are usually harmless but can be bothersome.
Focused laser energy heats the vessel so it collapses and is absorbed by the body, without harming the surrounding skin. Larger, bulging varicose veins need a vascular assessment, and we will refer you if that is the case.
Spider vein treatment is part of our cosmetic dermatology services. Facial vessels often respond to Green Genesis or IPL, and redness linked to rosacea is covered on our rosacea treatment page. Larger, painful veins need a vascular assessment, which we can help arrange. Vascular birthmarks such as port-wine stains are covered on our birthmark laser treatment page.
Fine red and purple vessels.
Around the nose and cheeks.
Small blue veins close to the surface.
Most plans combine options, and your consultation decides which suit your skin.
Gentle vascular laser for fine facial vessels.
Light-based option for facial redness and vessels.

Talk to us first if:
Each pulse feels like a quick snap with cooling. Treated veins may look darker straight away, which is expected.
Treated veins fade over several weeks. A few sessions may be needed. New veins can form over time, so occasional touch-ups help.
We go through the risks for your skin type at your consultation.
Spider vein laser treatment is priced per session based on the area and number of veins. Most people need a few sessions. We confirm your plan and price at consultation.
