Correct visible redness, veins, and pigmentation with Nd:YAG laser therapy — a versatile, collagen-stimulating treatment that restores clarity, balances tone, and refreshes skin with minimal downtime.
What Are Nd:YAG Laser Treatments?
Nd:YAG laser treatments are advanced, non-invasive procedures that use neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser technology to safely and effectively target a variety of skin and vascular concerns. This versatile laser works by delivering precise energy deep into the skin to treat pigmentation, redness, vascular lesions, unwanted hair, and more — all while stimulating collagen production for improved skin tone and texture.
The Nd:YAG laser is especially effective for vascular treatments (such as broken capillaries, spider veins, and rosacea) and is safe for most skin types, including medium to darker tones. It provides visible results with minimal discomfort and downtime.
Does Nd:YAG Laser Treatment Hurt?
Most patients experience only mild warmth or a light snapping sensation during treatment. The laser handpiece includes a cooling system that helps protect the skin and enhance comfort. For more sensitive areas, a topical numbing cream may be applied beforehand. Any redness or mild swelling typically subsides within a few hours to a day.
Am I a Candidate for Nd:YAG Laser Treatments?
You may be a good candidate for Nd:YAG laser treatments if you want to:
- Reduce visible facial veins or broken capillaries
- Minimize rosacea or redness
- Fade dark spots, sun damage, or pigmentation irregularities
- Tighten and rejuvenate skin through collagen stimulation
Nd:YAG laser treatments are suitable for light to moderate skin tones. Your provider will evaluate your skin type, condition, and goals during your consultation to determine the most appropriate settings and treatment plan.
Are Nd:YAG Laser Results Permanent?
Nd:YAG laser results can be long-lasting, especially when combined with good skincare and sun protection. Many vascular and pigment concerns resolve after a single treatment, though a series of 2–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart may be recommended for optimal and lasting results.
While treated veins and pigment do not usually return, new spots or vessels may form over time due to genetics, aging, or sun exposure — so periodic maintenance sessions can help preserve your results.
How Long Do Nd:YAG Treatments Take?
Treatment time varies depending on the area and condition being addressed:
- Small areas (spider veins, spot treatments): 10–20 minutes
- Full face or larger areas: 30–60 minutes
Because Nd:YAG laser treatments are non-surgical, patients can return to normal activities immediately. Mild redness or sensitivity may occur but typically fades quickly.
What Can Be Treated with Nd:YAG Laser?
The Nd:YAG laser is one of the most versatile aesthetic technologies available. It can effectively treat:
• Facial veins
• Broken capillaries and vascular lesions
• Rosacea and facial redness
• Hyperpigmentation and age spots
Because of its customizable wavelength and depth control, Nd:YAG laser therapy is safe and effective for a wide range of skin types and conditions.
What Does Nd:YAG Laser Treatment Cost?
Treatment costs vary depending on the area, concern, and number of sessions required. Pricing ranges from $75–$350 per session for smaller areas and $500–$1,500 for larger or multiple treatment zones.
