What is Cutera?

Are you bothered with the appearance of visible, purple, blue, or red veins in your legs? If so, laser vein therapy with the Cutera laser is for you! The Cutera Laser is a cutting-edge piece of technology that combines the ideal wavelength with the most flexible parameters to produce a superior vascular laser system. It targets a variety of vessels from small spider veins to larger varicose veins for amazing results. Plus, patients with both darker or lighter skin types can benefit from this treatment.

The Cutera Treatment

The Cutera laser distributes light energy pulses which cause the blood within the vein to coagulate, destroying the vessel which is absorbed by the body. Blood flow will be redirected to healthy veins. Most patients report feeling a slight stinging sensation as the pulses of energy are delivered into the vein. However, no local anesthesia or pain medication is usually required before treatment.

Usually, a series of treatments is needed to see the best results. The exact number of treatments will depend on the number, size, and color of the vessels being treated. Dr. Erwin can speak with you to determine the number of treatments that are best to achieve your desired aesthetic results.
