Avatar n tn A patient with spider veins in the face will usually choose to have laser therapy rather than sclerotherapy. Laser treatment may cause minor bruising that usually improves within a week.

Often, visual acuity end up at 20/200, 20/400 or worse. I've seen a few very unusual cases that did better, but that is not the norm.

Avatar n tn I am a 26 year old male. For the past few months I have had a hard vein in the left side of my penis. It feels like it runs from the base of the penis to the tip.

I'm not sure if this is related to my stress over the issue, or the actual issue, but erections have been less firm and more difficult to achieve.

Then about 2 weeks after that, i started feeling my thigh heavy again, and now at almost 3 months i'm feeling some occasional little pains on various parts of the leg (both thigh and lower leg).

Avatar n tn Hello, There are 5 types of laser hair removal systems. These include pulsed light, Nd YAG laser, diode laser. Alexanderite laser and ruby laser. This depends on the skin type and varies from patient to patient. I suggest you to get an evaluation done from a dermatologist for the skin type and then depending on that, laser hair removal can be decided.
