ClearV Laser Treatment
Erase imperfections, reveal radiant confidence.
ClearV Laser Treatment Explained
ClearV is an advanced vascular laser treatment designed to effectively target and eliminate unwanted blood vessels anywhere on the body. This gentle yet powerful solution works on all skin types and is safe to use year-round. By utilizing precise laser technology, ClearV addresses concerns such as spider veins, rosacea, and broken capillaries, promoting clearer, more even-toned skin. With no downtime and fast results, ClearV provides a safe and convenient way to achieve a smoother, more confident appearance.
How does ClearV Laser Treatment work?
ClearV works by emitting a focused beam of laser light that is specifically absorbed by the hemoglobin in blood vessels, causing them to heat up, collapse, and eventually be absorbed by the body, resulting in a reduction in the appearance of unwanted veins and vascular lesions on the skin; essentially, it targets and destroys blood vessels beneath the skin’s surface using selective photothermolysis, a process where the laser energy is precisely directed to the targeted vessels while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.

- Facial Vessels
- Body Vessels

How many treatments will I need?
Most patients typically need 1 to 3 ClearV laser treatments to achieve optimal results, depending on the severity of the vascular concerns and the size of the veins being treated; some smaller, shallow events may only require a single treatment while larger areas might need a full series of treatments spaced 4-6 weeks.
The number of treatments required will depend upon the number of vessels present, the character of the vessels and your body’s ability to heal.
How should I prepare for the treatment?
Before the treatment, you will be asked to remove your make-up or moisturizer and, if needed, you will be asked to shave the area to be treated. You will not need anesthetic cream or ice prior to treatment.
What should I expect the day of treatment?
- Photos will be taken so that your progress can be documented
- Your eyes will be protected with safety shields for treatments on the periorbital area or glasses. Laser energy will be delivered precisely to the area of your skin being treated. You may feel a brief warm or hot sensation as the laser pulses are absorbed by the unwanted vessels.
- There should be little to no discomfort, however it varies from patient to patient and depends on the treatment. Your clinician will discuss options to properly manage any discomfort from the treatment. ClearV has integrated cooling which will improve your experience. There should be no prolonged post treatment discomfort.
What should I expect post treatment?
- Patient response can vary. Redness and swelling around the treated vessels are usually noted within a few minutes after the completion of the procedure and typically have a “cat scratch” like appearance. A sunburn sensation and a slight feeling of soreness in the area treated are also normal and expected. These reactions tend to subside within 24-48 hours after the treatment.
- A cold compress or an ice pack can be used to provide comfort if the treated area is especially warm. This is typically only needed within the first 12 hours after the treatment. Vitamin E or Aloe Vera applied to the treatment area may provide a soothing effect.
- Post treatment discomfort is typically minimal but if the area is very uncomfortable, oral pain relievers, i.e. Extra Strength Tylenol or Advil, may be used. Avoid Aspirin or Aspirin containing products for two weeks after the treatment.
- After 48 hours, the skin over the treated veins will look slightly red, purple, or bruised. Sometimes, the veins will be more visible than they were prior to treatment. This is normal. Within the first two to three weeks, the redness and purple color will begin to fade. Each week, the color will become lighter and the veins will become less noticeable.
- If you received laser vein removal treatment to your legs, your clinician will instruct you when to resume to your normal activity level. Often, strenuous activities such as exercise, walking or running may interfere with vessel closure.
- Strictly avoid any sun exposure to the treated area for a minimum of 7 days after the procedures. The treated area is more prone to sunburn and pigmentation changes. Keep the area covered and use a sun block with a protection factor of 30+reapplying the sun block every two hours. Delayed blistering secondary to sun exposure has been noted up to 72 hours post treatment.
Sunscreen is recommended and should be used daily beginning the day of treatment and used consistently. If in the middle of a series of treatments, sun exposure should be avoided and sunblock with a protection factor of 30+ should be used on a daily basis.
