Long-pulsed Nd:YAG vascular laser targets the vessel selectively, so fine facial and leg spider veins fade gradually over a course of about 2 to 4 sessions.
Spider vein treatment uses vascular long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser, sometimes combined with sclerotherapy, to heat and collapse the fine red, blue, or purple vessels on the face and legs so the body reabsorbs them. At our Incheon Airport (Yeongjongdo) location, Dr. Sunbeen Kim treats veins over a series of 2 to 4 sessions for gradual, natural-looking clearing.

Spider vein treatment fades telangiectasia, the fine red, blue, or purple threads that appear on the face, legs, and body when small surface vessels dilate and become visible. They are usually harmless and cosmetic, but many people want them cleared from the cheeks, nose, or legs. The mainstay is a vascular laser that heats the targeted vessel until it collapses, after which the body gradually reabsorbs it.
At Reberry Clinic, treatment centres on a long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser, which can be set to a 1064 nm wavelength for deeper vessels or a 532 nm vascular wavelength for fine surface threads. The light is selectively absorbed by haemoglobin in the vein, so the vessel is treated while surrounding skin is spared. For deeper or resistant leg veins, sclerotherapy, an injection that collapses the vessel from inside, may be added over a multi-session plan.
For international patients arriving through Incheon International Airport, our Incheon Airport (Yeongjongdo) location is a convenient, English-supported option near ICN. Dr. Sunbeen Kim, Medical Director, first examines vessel type, size, and depth to rule out underlying venous disease, then tailors the wavelength and session plan so clearing looks natural and gradual.
Vascular laser works on the principle of selective photothermolysis: the wavelength is chosen so it is preferentially absorbed by haemoglobin in the blood vessel rather than by surrounding skin. A long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm penetrates deeper, suiting larger or deeper leg veins, while a 532 nm vascular wavelength is absorbed strongly near the surface, suiting fine facial threads. When the light is absorbed, it heats the vessel wall enough to collapse and seal it, and over the following weeks the body clears the treated vein so it fades from view. A cooling device protects the outer skin during pulses, and the pulse duration is set to match vessel size so energy is delivered without over-treating. Because vessels are cleared gradually and telangiectasia varies in depth, a series of 2 to 4 sessions spaced weeks apart is typical, and deeper leg networks may combine laser with sclerotherapy, where a sclerosant solution is injected to collapse the vessel from inside. The doctor selects wavelength, energy, and method for each vessel type so treatment is both effective and gentle on the skin.

The doctor examines vessel size, colour, and depth and rules out underlying venous disease before any of the 1 or more areas are treated.
A 1064 nm setting is chosen for deeper leg veins and a 532 nm vascular wavelength for fine facial threads, matched to each vessel.
The laser heats and collapses the vessel while cooling protects the skin, in a session that usually lasts about 15 to 40 minutes.
Over the following weeks the treated vessel is reabsorbed, and most people see steady fading across 2 to 4 sessions.
For deeper leg networks, sclerotherapy may be added, with 1 or more injection sessions layered into the plan.

Dr. Sunbeen Kim examines your vessels in English, rules out underlying venous disease, and recommends the wavelength and session plan for your veins.
A session usually takes about 15 to 40 minutes depending on the treated area, with cooling protecting the skin during pulses.
Most plans run as a course of 2 to 4 sessions spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, giving the body time to clear treated vessels.
Vessels fade gradually over several weeks after each session, and your doctor reviews progress to fine-tune the plan.
Treated veins clear, but new ones can appear over time, so sun protection and occasional maintenance help keep the skin clear.
Spider vein treatment uses a vascular laser that heats and collapses the targeted vessel so the body reabsorbs it over weeks. At our Incheon Airport (Yeongjongdo) location, Dr. Sunbeen Kim selects the wavelength for your veins and treats them over a session series. See related options on our laser treatment page.
Spider veins, or telangiectasia, are fine red, blue, or purple threads that appear when small surface vessels dilate and become visible, most often on the cheeks, nose, and legs. They are usually harmless and cosmetic. A doctor confirms this and rules out underlying venous issues before recommending treatment.
Discomfort is mild and brief: vascular laser feels like a quick snap or a warm rubber-band flick, and a cooling device protects the skin during each pulse. Numbing can be added for sensitive areas. Sclerotherapy injections feel like a small pinch. Most patients tolerate sessions comfortably.
Most spider veins improve over a course of 2 to 4 sessions spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, since vessels fade gradually as the body clears them. Deeper leg veins may need more. Your doctor reviews progress between visits, which you can follow through our laser treatment pathway.
Long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm penetrates deeper for larger leg veins, while a 532 nm setting suits fine surface threads. The light is absorbed by haemoglobin so the vein is treated while skin is spared. See related options on our laser treatment page.
Downtime is usually minimal, with brief redness, mild swelling, or temporary marking that settles over days. Leg veins may show light bruising as they clear. Most people return to normal activity quickly. Sun protection during healing matters, and a good skin care routine supports recovery.
Results build gradually over several weeks after each session as treated vessels are reabsorbed, not immediately. Facial veins often respond faster than deeper leg veins. Your doctor reviews progress between sessions and adjusts the plan so clearing looks natural rather than abrupt across the course.
Treated vessels are cleared, but spider veins can recur and new ones can form over time, since the underlying tendency remains. Treatment manages existing veins rather than permanently preventing all future ones. Sun protection and occasional maintenance sessions help you keep results looking clear over the long term.
Yes, both facial and leg spider veins can be treated, though the settings differ: fine facial threads suit a 532 nm surface wavelength, while deeper leg veins suit a 1064 nm Nd:YAG setting. Your doctor tailors the wavelength and plan to each area for safe, effective clearing.
Vascular laser can be performed safely across skin types when settings are matched to your tone, since deeper skin needs more conservative parameters to reduce pigment change. Your doctor plans this at consultation. A supportive skin care routine and sun protection lower risks during healing.
Sclerotherapy is added for deeper or resistant leg vein networks that laser alone may not fully clear, since injecting a sclerosant collapses the vessel from inside. The two methods are often combined over a plan. Your doctor decides at consultation based on vessel depth, size, and how the network is arranged.
Most adults with cosmetic facial or leg spider veins are suitable, though larger varicose veins or underlying venous disease need a vascular review first. A consultation confirms your vessel type and whether laser, sclerotherapy, or a combination fits before any treatment begins, keeping the plan safe and appropriate.
Aftercare is simple: daily sunscreen, gentle skincare, avoiding heat and hot baths for a day or two, and compression for some leg treatments. Avoid picking any marks as they heal. A supportive skin care routine protects the treated skin between and after sessions.
For a first session, 2 to 3 days is comfortable, allowing a consultation, treatment, and a short review. Because plans run as a course, many international patients begin near Incheon Airport and continue on return visits. Our English-speaking team helps coordinate session timing around your travel.
Yes, flying within a day or so is generally fine, since spider vein treatment is non-invasive to minimally invasive. For leg treatments, moving during the flight and following compression advice helps circulation. Protect treated skin from sun, and your doctor will give travel-specific aftercare tailored to your plan.
Choose what suits your itinerary: our Incheon Airport (Yeongjongdo) location is convenient for arriving or departing travellers, while our Seoul locations in Gangnam and Myeongdong suit city stays. All offer English support. The clinic’s team can help you pick based on your schedule and where your veins are.
