A Modern Approach to Vascular Skin Rejuvenation

Concierge patients benefit from a team with more than 30 years of combined experience in aesthetic medicine and plastic surgery. Led by board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Michael Epstein and Dr. Andrea Martin, our practice focuses on treatments that improve both appearance and skin health. Vascular concerns such as spider veins, facial veins, and redness can affect confidence and comfort. Our team uses advanced technologies, such as Nd:YAG laser therapy in Northbrook, to safely target unwanted blood vessels while protecting surrounding tissue. Every treatment is customized to the patient’s skin type, concerns, and aesthetic goals, ensuring natural-looking results in a supportive clinical environment.

What Is Nd:YAG Laser Vein Treatment?

Nd:YAG produces a specific wavelength of light that penetrates the skin and is absorbed by hemoglobin within blood vessels.

The heat generated by this energy causes the targeted vessels to collapse and gradually be reabsorbed by the body.

Because this wavelength penetrates deeper into the skin, Nd:YAG lasers are often used to treat vascular concerns that may not respond to surface treatments.

Common conditions treated include:

  • Spider veins
  • Facial veins
  • Broken capillaries
  • Vascular lesions
  • Certain types of rosacea-related redness

Over time, the body naturally clears the treated vessels, resulting in smoother, clearer skin.

Benefits of Nd:YAG Laser Treatment

Nd:YAG vascular treatments offer several advantages for patients seeking non-surgical vein reduction:

  • Targets unwanted veins with precision
  • Treats deeper vascular lesions than many surface lasers
  • Improves the appearance of spider veins and broken capillaries
  • Requires minimal downtime
  • Safe for use on multiple areas of the body
  • Provides gradual, natural-looking improvement

What to Expect Before, During, and After

Consultation

Your treatment begins with a detailed consultation at our Northbrook location. During this appointment, we evaluate your skin concerns, review your medical history, and discuss your aesthetic goals. Pricing varies depending on the treatment area and the number of sessions required.

Procedure

Nd:YAG treatments are typically quick and straightforward:

  • The treatment area is cleansed and prepared
  • Protective eyewear is provided
  • The Nd:YAG laser delivers pulses of light energy to targeted veins
  • The session generally lasts 15–30 minutes, depending on the treatment area

Patients often describe the sensation as a mild snapping or warming feeling on the skin.

Recovery and Results

Nd:YAG laser treatments require little downtime. After treatment:

  • Mild redness or swelling may occur temporarily
  • Treated vessels gradually fade as the body absorbs them
  • Improvements are typically visible within several weeks
  • Multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal results

Types of Nd:YAG Vascular Treatments

Nd:YAG lasers can be used to treat a variety of vascular concerns, including:

  • Facial spider veins
  • Leg spider veins
  • Broken capillaries
  • Small vascular lesions

Because the laser penetrates deeper than many other light-based treatments, it can effectively target vessels beneath the skin’s surface.
