Treat Benign Vascular Lesions with IPL
What Are Vascular Lesions?
Vascular lesions are visible red, blue, or purple veins that often appear on the face, chest, or legs. These benign imperfections, including spider veins and broken capillaries, are usually caused by factors such as genetics, sun damage, or aging. While harmless, they can detract from your complexion. At Rye Aesthetics for Life, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy offers an effective, non-invasive solution to treat vascular lesions and restore your confidence.
How IPL Treats Vascular Lesions
IPL uses pulses of broad-spectrum light to target the hemoglobin in your blood vessels. This light energy heats the vessel, causing it to collapse and be naturally absorbed by your body over time.
Benefits of IPL for Vascular Lesions
- Non-Invasive: No incisions, needles, or downtime.
- Quick Treatments: Sessions last about 20–30 minutes, making it easy to fit into your schedule.
- Multi-Functional: IPL also improves skin tone, reduces redness, and minimizes sun damage.
- Minimal Discomfort: Most patients describe the sensation as a mild snap, similar to a rubber band.
What to Expect During IPL Treatment
- Consultation: Your provider will assess your skin and determine if IPL is right for you.
- Procedure: A handheld device delivers pulses of light to the target area.
- Aftercare: Mild redness may occur but usually subsides within a few hours. You’ll need to protect your skin with SPF and avoid sun exposure post-treatment.

- Spider veins
- Broken capillaries
