Laser Treatment for Vascular Lesions

Our laser systems can remove a variety of vascular lesions. Vascular lesions involve blood vessels that are near the surface of the skin.

Below are a few examples of vascular lesions that Pristine Laser Center in Orlando can remove safely and effectively:

Port-Wine Stain Birthmark

Port-Wine Stain Birthmark is a vascular lesion which consists of both superficial and deep dilated capillaries. They look red/purple in color. It is present at birth and lasts throughout life. It occurs in roughly 0.4% of people, roughly 4 out of 1000 people. Port-Wine stains are sharply demarcated red macules or patches. They often change color from red at birth to dark-red in adolescence and violaceous as the person gets older. The reason for the title "Port-Wine stains" is because of the purplish red color of the legion. Port-Wine stains can occur anywhere on the body, but the most common site is the face and usually unilateral and segmental. They do tend to grow with the child and last throughout life.

Telangiectasia

Telangiectasias are small dilated blood vessels that are near the surface of the skin or mucous membranes. They can measure anywhere from 0.5 and 1 millimeter in diameter. Telangiectasias are most commonly on the face: around the nose, cheeks, and chin. They can also develop on the legs, specifically on the upper thigh, below the knee, and around the ankles.

Spider Angioma

Spider Angiomas, aka Spider nevi or spider telangiectasia are a type of telangiectasia. They are found beneath the skin, with a central red spot and red extensions that come out, making it look like a spider’s web.

Cherry Angioma

Cherry angiomas are the most common type of cutaneous vascular lesions (angiomas) usually presenting in the 3rd or 4th decade of life. They represent abnormal proliferation of blood vessels. They originally present as red papules or macules. Cherry angiomas tend to grow in size and number with age. We are able to completely remove these lesions as shown below in before and after pictures of an actual Pristine Laser Center client.
