Before & After
Treatment Options
In cases where veins are too small to inject, a laser can be used to clear any veins that remain. However, sclerotherapy is the gold standard because of its ability to treat varying sizes of veins with a much lower risk of scarring.
Spider veins are also quite commonly seen on the cheeks and around the nose. These smaller veins, also called capillaries, respond best to light laser treatment or a photofacial, which is also known as intense pulse light (IPL) therapy. The light from the IPL blanches the vessels, which damages them and allows them to be reabsorbed by the body. A series of three treatments achieves excellent clarity with little downtime.

FAQ
Common Questions About Spider Vein Treatment
How much does spider vein treatment cost?
It depends how many areas are treated and how many sessions you need. You get an exact figure at your consultation.
How does the treatment work?
A solution is injected into the small veins. The veins collapse and fade, and the body clears them over the following weeks.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients clear in a couple of sessions. How many you need depends on how extensive the veins are, which is assessed in person.
Does it hurt?
The injections use a very fine needle and most patients describe a brief sting at each site. Your physician will tell you what to expect for the area you are having treated.
Will the veins come back?
The treated veins are gone. New ones can appear over time, since the factors that produced the first set, including genetics and standing work, do not change. Many patients return for a short touch-up session years later.
Do I need to do anything afterwards?
Your physician gives you aftercare at the appointment, which usually covers compression and activity for the first few days. Follow it, because it affects how well the treated veins clear.
