At Midtown Med Spa, we use the Cutera® Laser Vein Therapy to bring outstanding results to patients who are looking to treat:
- Small facial veins (telangiectasia)

- Large blue leg veins
- Hemangiomas
- Port-Wine Stains
How Does the Cutera® Laser Vein Therapy Work?
The Cutera® Laser Vein Therapy uses strong pulses of light to cause the blood within your veins to coagulate. This destroys the vessels containing the backup of blood that is causing the unsightly veins and allows the blood in the vessel to be reabsorbed by your body. The result is the blood from the vessel being redirected into deeper veins that are below your skin’s surface, causing the visible veins on your face and body to disappear.
