WEST PALM BEACH, FL, March 28, 2014 (Press-News.org) Cutaneous laser vein treatment is, as suggested by the name, a laser-based non-invasive method for removing visible, diseased or cosmetically disturbing veins. During the treatment, a laser is applied to the surface of the skin on top of the vein in question, heating the vein and coagulating the blood. This in turn causes the blood vessel to break down and to, eventually, be removed naturally by the body's immune system, thereby causing the vein to disappear.
Who Can Benefit from Cutaneous Laser Vein Treatments?
Laser spider vein removal can help improve a number of conditions, including spider veins (also known as telangiectasias), hemangiomas and cherry hemangiomas, to name a few.
Spider veins are small, twisted, readily visible red, purple or blue veins commonly found on the legs or face. They are more common in women than in men, and the risk of spider veins increases with age. They generally do not cause any symptoms, but may cause itching or burning.
Hemangiomas are technically a type of benign tumor and present as red or purple lesions or nodules on the skin, sometimes with visible blood vessels. They may be present at birth and usually grow and expand over the first few years of a child's life. While they are often harmless and symptomless, the may bleed or cause psychological problems due to the compromised appearance of the skin.
On the other hand, cherry hemangiomas are most commonly found in people aged 30 years or older and present as bright red nodules. Similarly to hemangiomas, they are rarely associated with any symptoms, but may cause distress due to their disturbing appearance.
What Are the Advantages of Cutaneous Laser Vein Treatments?
There are a number of advantages associated with cutaneous laser treatment for spider veins compared to other treatment options, including, first and foremost, that it is non-invasive. Furthermore, patients generally experience very little discomfort, if any, during the procedure. It is quick and you can get back to your daily routine immediately afterwards.
"If the look of spider veins or other blemishes is bothering you, know that help is available," says Dr. Steven Tidwell, M.D. "Cutaneous laser vein treatment is not right for everyone, but it may just be right for you."

Prompt Proofing Reviews State of Wonder by Ann Patchett
2014-03-28
One can interpret the title in many ways - the Brazilian rainforest and its wildlife could indeed be described as a state of wonder but the title also refers to the childlike innocence of the primitive Lakashi people, uninfluenced and uncorrupted by the modern world.
Marina is sent by her boss - with whom she has more than a professional relationship - to track down Dr Swenson, an eccentric scientist who has apparently discovered a drug that will enable women to remain fertile into their sixties or even seventies.

Esophageal function implicated in life-threatening experiences in infants, study suggests
2014-03-28
About 1 percent of all emergency room visits are prompted by near-death experiences in infants, such as extended periods without breathing or sudden changes in skin pallor or muscle tone. What causes these frightening experiences is often unknown, but the result can be long hospital stays and neurological impairment.
Now, a study of these apparent life-threatening events — called ALTEs for short — suggests that infants who experience them have abnormal regulation of esophageal and airway function compared to healthy babies. The findings, published online March 28 in ...
QUB discovery signals new treatment for those at high risk of breast and ovarian cancer
2014-03-28
Cancer researchers at Queen's University Belfast have made a breakthrough which could signal new treatments for women at high risk of breast and ovarian cancer.
Currently around one in 1,000 women in the UK carry what is known as a BRCA1 mutation - the same condition that prompted well-known actress Angelina Jolie to undergo a double mastectomy. They have up to an 85 per cent risk of developing breast cancer, and up to 40 per cent risk of developing ovarian cancer, in their lifetimes.
Until now, preventive surgery - mastectomy (breasts) and oophorectomy (ovaries) - ...
Stool samples provide marker for bowel disease
2014-03-28
A novel method for distinguishing different types of bowel disease using the stool samples of patients has been created by a group of researchers in the UK.
It works by analysing the chemical compounds emitted from the samples and could provide cheaper, quicker and more accurate diagnoses, at the point of care, for a group of diseases that have, up until now, been very hard to distinguish.
The preliminary results of the test, which have been published today, 28 March, in IOP Publishing's Journal of Breath Research, show that patients with either inflammatory bowel disease ...
