Treatment of telangiectasia is becoming a cosmetic demand, therefore a good outcome and lower incidence of side effects is crucial. Sclerotherapy had long been the mainstay treatment of telangiectasias and leg veins, other modes of treatment include intense pulse light, diode, pulsed dye and Nd:YAG laser. In this study we describe our clinical experience with the use of the 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser in management of face and leg telangiectasia. Our aim is to evaluate the clinical efficacy as well as the potential complications and put forward a protocol for effective treatment.
