What are hemoglobin chromophores targeted for?

Spider veins
Deep vein thrombosis
Wrinkles
Hair removal

The correct answer is: Spider veins

Hemoglobin chromophores are targeted for spider veins during laser treatments. The hemoglobin in the blood vessels absorbs the laser energy, causing coagulation and eventual closure of the veins. This process helps to effectively treat spider veins by destroying the unwanted blood vessels. Choices B, C, and D are not targeted for hemoglobin chromophores in laser treatments. Deep vein thrombosis involves blood clots in the deep veins and is typically not treated using laser therapy. Wrinkles are usually targeted with different types of lasers such as fractional lasers or laser resurfacing treatments, which do not specifically aim to target hemoglobin chromophores. Hair removal, on the other hand, targets melanin in the hair follicles and not specifically hemoglobin chromophores.
