What Is ELITE+ Laser Vein Removal?
ELITE+ Nd:YAG laser vein removal is a state-of-the-art, non-invasive treatment that uses the proven 1064nm wavelength to eliminate spider veins, reticular veins, and broken capillaries on the legs, face, and body. The laser energy is selectively absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood, heating the vein walls and causing them to collapse and fade from view, without incisions, injections, or downtime.
At Dr. Avaliani’s practice, every ELITE+ laser vein treatment is performed with meticulous precision. A protective cooling gel is applied to the treatment area, and the 1064nm Nd:YAG laser is calibrated to each vein’s specific size and depth. The laser energy selectively heats the blood within the vein, causing the vessel walls to collapse. Blood naturally reroutes to deeper, healthier veins.
How ELITE+ Laser Vein Removal Works
The ELITE+ laser vein removal follows a straightforward, well-proven protocol:
- Dr. Avaliani evaluates your veins and selects the optimal spot size, energy level, and pulse duration for each vein type
- The 1064nm Nd:YAG laser delivers focused energy through the skin directly into the targeted vein, absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood
- The laser energy heats the blood vessel walls, causing them to coagulate, collapse upon themselves, and seal shut
- Blood naturally redirects to deeper, healthier veins while the treated vessels are gradually absorbed by the body
- Over 3-5 sessions, veins progressively fade for smoother, clearer skin on the legs, face, and body
Vein Conditions We Treat
Spider Veins on Legs
Clusters of fine red, blue, or purple veins that appear on the thighs, calves, and ankles. The ELITE+ 1064nm laser selectively targets hemoglobin in these vessels, causing them to collapse and fade for smooth, clear skin on your legs.
Facial Veins & Capillaries
Delicate broken capillaries and visible veins on the nose, cheeks, and chin that cause persistent redness and an uneven complexion. The laser precisely targets these fine facial vessels with adjustable spot sizes for controlled, safe treatment.
Reticular Veins
Slightly larger blue-green feeder veins (1-3mm) that sit deeper beneath the skin and often supply nearby clusters of spider veins. The 1064nm wavelength penetrates deep enough to reach and collapse these vessels for comprehensive vein clearance.
Cherry Angiomas
Small, bright red vascular growths that appear on the skin surface, commonly on the torso, arms, and legs. The ELITE+ laser safely eliminates these benign lesions with minimal discomfort and no scarring.
Broken Capillaries
Dilated capillaries that appear as thin red lines on the face and body, often caused by sun damage, aging, or rosacea. The laser targets and eliminates these superficial vessels for an even, clear complexion.
Vascular Lesions
Various benign vascular lesions including venous lakes, small hemangiomas, and other visible blood vessel formations on the face and body that respond well to targeted laser treatment.
Our ELITE+ Vein Removal Technologies
The ELITE+ platform offers multiple capabilities for precise, effective vascular clearance:
1064nm Nd:YAG Wavelength
The gold-standard wavelength for vascular treatment, the 1064nm Nd:YAG laser penetrates deeply to selectively target hemoglobin in blood vessels while bypassing the epidermis. Safe and effective for all skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI), this wavelength delivers precise energy to veins ranging from fine spider veins to larger reticular vessels.
Integrated Contact Cooling
Built-in epidermal cooling system continuously protects the skin surface during laser delivery, maintaining patient comfort throughout the procedure. This dual cooling mechanism allows therapeutic energy to reach the targeted vessels while keeping the surrounding tissue safe and comfortable.
Variable Spot Size Technology
Adjustable spot sizes from 1.5mm to 10mm allow precise targeting of veins ranging from fine facial capillaries to larger leg vessels. Energy parameters including pulse duration and fluence are customized for each vein’s diameter, depth, and location for optimal clearance with minimal side effects.

ELITE+ Nd:YAG Laser Vein Removal frequently asked questions
How does the ELITE+ laser remove veins?
The ELITE+ uses a 1064nm Nd:YAG laser that is selectively absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood within your veins. This laser energy heats the blood vessel walls, causing them to coagulate and collapse. Your body then naturally absorbs the treated vessel over the following days and weeks, leaving clearer skin behind.
How many treatment sessions will I need?
On average, 3 to 5 treatment sessions are needed to achieve optimal clearance, depending on the size, location, and severity of your veins. Some patients see significant improvement after just one or two sessions. Dr. Avaliani will evaluate your veins and recommend the right number of sessions during your consultation.
When will I see results after treatment?
Some smaller veins may disappear immediately during treatment. Others may temporarily darken or appear more prominent before fading completely within 10 to 14 days. Full results from a series of treatments typically become apparent over 4 to 8 weeks as your body gradually absorbs the treated vessels.
Is the ELITE+ laser treatment painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as mild warmth or a light snapping feeling on the skin. The ELITE+ has an integrated cooling system that protects the skin surface and enhances comfort throughout the procedure. No anesthesia is required, and most patients find the treatment very comfortable.
Are the results permanent?
Yes. Once a vein has been treated and absorbed by the body, it is permanently eliminated. However, new veins can develop over time due to genetics, hormonal changes, prolonged standing, or aging. Periodic maintenance sessions may be recommended to address any new veins that appear.
What areas of the body can be treated?
The ELITE+ laser can treat veins on virtually any area of the body, including the legs (thighs, calves, ankles), face (nose, cheeks, chin), chest, hands, and arms. It is effective on spider veins, reticular veins, broken capillaries, cherry angiomas, and other small vascular lesions.
How long does each treatment session take?
Most sessions take between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on the number and size of the veins being treated. Smaller areas like facial veins may take as little as 5 to 10 minutes. The procedure is quick enough to fit easily into a lunch break.
Is there any downtime after treatment?
There is no downtime after ELITE+ laser vein treatment. You can return to all normal activities immediately, including work and exercise. Some patients may experience mild redness or slight swelling in the treated area, which typically resolves within a few hours.
Can laser vein removal be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Laser vein removal is often combined with sclerotherapy for comprehensive vein treatment, or with skin rejuvenation treatments for overall complexion improvement. Dr. Avaliani can create a customized treatment plan that addresses multiple concerns during the same visit.
Is the ELITE+ laser safe for all skin types?
Yes. The 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength is safe for all skin types, including darker skin tones. This wavelength bypasses melanin in the epidermis and targets hemoglobin in the blood vessels directly, making it one of the safest laser options for vascular treatment across all Fitzpatrick skin types.
