Abstract

Background and Aim: Lower limb telangiectasias are commonly seen in the general population and especially in females. This disorder not only causes cosmetic problems but also can cause pain and related problems of increased venous blood pressure. These varicose veins are one of the most common causes that patients refer to dermatology clinics. Considering some complications and limitations of sclerotherapy, we decided to investigate the efficacy and safety of the Long-Pulsed Nd: YAG 1064-nm laser as an alternative method. Methods: 29 patients underwent at least three sessions of 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser treatment at intervals of 4 weeks. Before the first treatment session, after each session, and six months after the last session, photos were taken of the treatment site. Finally, clinical response and satisfaction rate with the treatment were recorded based on the score of a secondary dermatologist and the patient himself based on the improvement criteria from 0 to 4. Results: According to the dermatologist's judgment, the average satisfaction with the treatment is 3. 38 out of 4 with a standard deviation of 0. 5, and based on the patient's assessment, it is 3. 2 out of 4 with a standard deviation of 0. 71, which is equivalent to more than 76% of the effectiveness of Nd: YAG 1064 nm laser in the treatment of telangiectatic veins. The pain during laser treatment was recorded as 6. 27 with a standard deviation of 2. 64 based on The VAS Scale. Conclusion: Our experience has demonstrated that the longpulsed 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser is an effective, reliable, safe method in the treatment of telangiectatic and reticular veins of the lower limbs with minimal side effects and complications.
