Lighting Up Spider Vein Treatment in Winchester
Spider veins are those tiny, damaged capillaries you can see right beneath your skin. They’re usually red, blue, or purple, and look like tree branches—or spider webs.
Typically, spider veins don’t threaten health. However, many people find them cosmetically displeasing.
At Blossom Medical, our Clarity® laser is a revolutionary, versatile, high-powered dual-wavelength laser device that brilliantly and rapidly removes hair, pigment, and vascular lesions on all skin types.
Due to its power and precision, the Clarity system also effectively targets and destroys spider veins. Once it’s done, your body naturally dissolves and eliminates those broken capillaries. No more colorful roadmaps on your legs, arms, or wherever your spider veins occur!

What to Expect
The Spider Vein Treatment Process
1
Consultation
It starts by having a personal consultation with a Blossom Medical provider. They’ll discuss your concerns, your goals for treatment, your medical history, and look at your spider vein locations. If they determine that spider vein treatment in Winchester is the best course of action for your goals, Blossom Medical will create a custom treatment plan centered around you and schedule your appointment.
2
Treatment
Your Blossom Medical provider applies Clarity’s laser energy to your treatment area, where it is absorbed by the spider veins. As this happens, the laser energy heats the unwanted capillary, eventually causing it to collapse within itself. Once the treatment is concluded, your body will naturally do the rest—dissolving the treated capillaries and flushing them from your system.
3
Results
The Clarity has such short pulse widths (1ms and 2ms), it can be applied anywhere you have undesirable spider veins. This can include your legs, arms, face, and even your nose. Because the treatment requires your body’s natural healing functions to finish the job, you’ll see the spiders veins gradually change color and then permanently disappear over 2 to 6 weeks following treatment.
