How does the Excel V Laser work?

Excel V uses the most advanced laser technology to safely and effectively treat various vessels from tiny spider veins to deep blue reticular veins. Patients with dark, light, or tanned skin can experience outstanding results.

The laser delivers pulses of light energy, which causes the blood within the vein to coagulate. Eventually, this destroys the vessel, and it reabsorbs into the body—the blood flow then redirects to veins deeper below your skin’s surface, where it should be.

What about Sclerotherapy for leg veins?

Dr. Sherman determines with you if sclerotherapy or laser therapy will be most effective. The necessary treatment depends on the type, size, and color of the spider and reticular veins.

What does it feel like to experience the Excel V Laser treatment?

The treatment delivers pulses of energy that our patients often describe as feeling like a stinging sensation, which can be taken to a minimum by applying numbing cream prior to treatment when requested. The Excel V laser also uses a proprietary cooling mechanism to avoid discomfort. Following the treatment, pain is minimal to non-existent. Dr. Sherman of Vein Specialists of Augusta has 25+ years of experience as a surgeon and offers medically safe solutions to treat vein disease and vascular lesions.
