If spider veins, rosacea, or vascular lesions affect your confidence, the KTP laser offers quick, non-invasive treatment—and DPC ensures this procedure is delivered with expertise, safety, and attentive follow-up.
The KTP (potassium-titanyl-phosphate) laser uses a 532 nm wavelength to:
Treat spider veins (telangiectasia): On the face or legs.
Reduce redness from rosacea: By collapsing dilated blood vessels.

Each session takes 15–30 minutes, with minimal downtime.
