SPIDER VEIN TREATMENT
The Vein Care Center offers different types of treatment for spider veins: sclerotherapy and laser. They can be employed independently or in combination. Approximately half of all adult women are affected by these red, purple, or blue veins that appear on the thighs, calves and ankles. Not only are these veins displeasing to the eye, they can also cause physical pain, aching, burning, swelling, and night cramps. Our treaments are designed to diminish the appearance of currently visible spider veins.
Sclerotherapy is a very popular method of eliminating spider veins. A solution called a sclerosing agent is injected into the veins. This solution causes an irritation to the inner lining of the vein, resulting in closure of the vein. A small gauge needle is used to perform the injections, and most patients relate the discomfort to an ant bite.
During laser treatment, a laser is applied to the skin over your spider veins. Laser energy causes your spider veins to coagulate and shrink. Laser therapy is most effective for small and medium size spider veins. Large spider veins respond poorly and are best treated with sclerotherapy. You are likely to experience mild discomfort similar to having a small rubber band snapping against your skin.
