The Center for Laser Surgery has over twenty years experience in the treatment of leg veins.  Our Center is actively involved in basic clinical research concerning the laser treatment of leg veins and published the first report of the successful treatment of leg veins with the new Versapulse leg vein laser. * Laser treatment of leg veins presents many challenges, however, our extensive experience and the ability to choose the best laser to treat each patient provides optimum improvement in most cases.

The Center For Laser Surgery has six unique vascular lasers enabling us to treat leg veins of all colors and sizes.  We have recently acquired the new V-Star Long Pulsed Dye Laser, which has shown promise in the treatment of small pink lower extremities of vessels. Laser treatment of leg veins is usually reserved for those cases that fail to completely respond to our advanced ultrasound and vein light guided foam sclerotherapy techniques.
