Spider Vein Treatment

Spider Vein Treatment | Online Consultation

For years, Spider Vein Treatment consisted of one option: sclerotherapy, which involves injecting the veins with a chemical solution. Now we can treat small and medium spider veins using a laser. The laser is applied to the skin over your spider veins. Laser energy causes your spider veins to coagulate and shrink. Usually there is no need for anesthesia; you will experience a feeling similar to a small rubber band snapping against your skin.

Over 2–6 weeks, your spider veins usually fade. After each treatment, you will see a 70–80% improvement in the appearance of face spider veins and 30–40% improvement in leg spider veins. An average of three treatments will be required at three-month intervals.

Unfortunately, laser therapy is not effective for larger spider vein removal. If you have a combination of large and small spider veins, you should consider sclerotherapy for the larger ones first, followed later by laser treatment for the smaller ones.
However, laser therapy of facial spider veins is the treatment of choice. Laser treatment may cause minor bruising which usually improves within a week, but often, recovery is immediate. Right after treatment, you may apply make-up.
