Venous Lake Treatment

Venous lakes are small, dark blue or purple spots that often appear on the lips, ears, or face due to enlarged blood vessels close to the skin’s surface.

At LM Medical NYC, people from across New York City come in for venous lake treatment to help clear their skin and achieve a smoother, fresher look.

Treatment Options For Venous Lake

Venous lake treatment targets the enlarged blood vessels that cause the dark spots, while protecting the surrounding skin. 

Depending on the size, location, and depth of the spot, your venous lake treatment may include YAG laser therapy, IPL, or other energy-based options to improve discoloration. Some people may benefit from combining skin rejuvenation treatments to improve overall tone, texture, and sun damage around the treated area. 

Dr. Rabach will customize each plan based on your skin type, cosmetic goals, and the appearance of the venous lake.

What Can I Expect During Venous Lake Treatment?

At your appointment, Dr. Rabach will examine the area and choose the best treatment based on where your venous lake is and how it looks.

Our laser treatments use controlled energy to target the affected blood vessels and break down the discoloration under the skin. Clients might feel a mild warmth or a quick snapping feeling during the procedure.

After treatment, you may notice some temporary redness, swelling, or darkening of the spot as your skin heals.

What is the Recovery Like After Venous Lake Treatment?

Recovery is mild but will depend on the type of treatment you receive. Venous lake clients might experience temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or mild crusting in the treated area as their skin heals.

Most side effects get better within a few days to a few weeks. You’ll usually be advised to avoid excessive sun exposure and to follow your post-treatment skincare instructions closely to help your skin heal and reduce irritation.

Some venous lakes may need more than one treatment session, depending on their size and depth.

Combining My Venous Lake Treatment with Others

Many patients combine venous lake treatment with additional cosmetic procedures to improve overall skin clarity and facial rejuvenation.

Facials

Customized facials are often added to venous lake treatment to help keep your skin looking healthy, boost hydration, and support a refreshed appearance after your procedure.

BOTOX

Some patients choose to combine BOTOX treatments with venous lake removal to soften fine lines and create a more refreshed facial appearance during the same appointment.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers may complement venous lake treatment by restoring volume around the lips, cheeks, or lower face for improved facial balance and rejuvenation.

How Much Does Venous Lake Treatment Cost in New York City, NY?

The cost of venous lake treatment in New York City depends on the method used, the size and location of the spot, how many sessions you need, and if you add other cosmetic treatments to your plan.

Laser skin rejuvenation and combination treatments may cost more than treating just a single spot.

Since everyone’s skin concerns and goals are different, final pricing is given after a personal consultation with Dr. Morgan Rabach at LM Medical NYC.
