Vascular Lesions & Veins

Vascular lesions are small clusters of blood vessels that become visible beneath the skin’s surface, appearing as red, purple, or blue marks. These can range from fine spider veins to larger vascular networks on the face, legs, or body. While typically harmless, they often cause cosmetic concerns and may worsen over time if left untreated.

At Kelowna Hills, our physician-led team identifies the type, size, and depth of your vascular concern to develop a precise, effective treatment plan. We treat:

• Facial redness and broken capillaries
  
• Spider veins on the face and legs
  
• Cherry angiomas and telangiectasia
  
• Rosacea-related flushing
  
• Small vascular networks caused by sun damage or aging
  

Our goal is to restore your skin’s clarity and confidence through safe, physician-supervised care using cutting-edge vascular technology.

Vascular lesions form when small blood vessels near the surface of the skin dilate, weaken, or become damaged. This can happen due to hereditary factors, environmental stress, or chronic inflammation. Hormonal changes, prolonged sun exposure, and pressure on the skin can also contribute to the development of visible veins and redness.

Common causes include:

• Genetics and hereditary predisposition
  
• Sun exposure and environmental damage
  
• Hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy or menopause
  
• Aging and loss of vascular integrity
  
• Skin conditions like rosacea or chronic redness
  
• Lifestyle factors such as heat exposure or alcohol consumption
  

At Kelowna Hills, our physician-led experts understand that vascular issues are not only aesthetic but physiological. We use evidence-based, medical-grade solutions to treat these concerns safely and effectively for lasting clarity and confidence.

As a physician-directed clinic, we use advanced light-based technologies designed to selectively target and diminish unwanted blood vessels without harming surrounding skin. Each treatment begins with a detailed assessment to determine the appropriate wavelength, depth, and energy required for your specific vascular concern.

Depending on your skin’s needs, your customized vascular treatment plan may include:

• Vasculaze™ to precisely target spider veins, redness, and vascular lesions using optimized light energy for safe, even skin tone
  
• Lumecca™ IPL to address generalized redness and diffuse vascular concerns while improving overall complexion
  
• Exosome Therapy to enhance healing, reduce inflammation, and strengthen skin resilience post-treatment
  
• Medical-Grade Skincare with anti-inflammatory and barrier-supporting ingredients to minimize future redness and maintain results
  

Each treatment is performed or supervised by our physician-led team, ensuring medical precision, comfort, and lasting results that restore your skin’s natural clarity.

Maintaining clear, even-toned skin after vascular treatment requires proper skincare, protection, and lifestyle habits. At Kelowna Hills, we focus on long-term vascular health by providing comprehensive post-care guidance and maintenance plans tailored to your skin type and goals.

Our physician-led recommendations include:

• Applying daily broad-spectrum SPF to prevent sun-induced vascular flare-ups
  
• Avoiding excessive heat exposure (hot yoga, saunas, steam rooms) for several days post-treatment
  
• Using soothing, anti-redness skincare products to calm and strengthen the skin barrier
  
• Maintaining a balanced diet and limiting alcohol or caffeine intake to reduce flushing
  
• Scheduling periodic follow-up treatments if needed for maintenance
  

With ongoing care and medical oversight, you can enjoy clearer, smoother, and healthier-looking skin free of unwanted veins or redness.
