Meet with our team to review your vein health, discuss expectations, and map out the areas to treat. We’ll confirm compression stocking fit and give you pre-procedure instructions (like avoiding lotion or shaving 24 hours before).
On treatment day, you’ll wear loose, comfortable clothing. We cleanse the skin and position you with legs slightly elevated.
Using a fine needle, we inject a sclerosing solution into the targeted veins. This irritates the vein lining, causing it to collapse and redirect blood flow to healthier veins.
A compression dressing is applied immediately. You’ll walk for 10–15 minutes to reduce clot formation and will wear compression stockings for at least 48 hours. Avoid strenuous exercise and direct sun on treated areas for about two weeks.
Spider veins develop when small blood vessels near the surface of the skin become weakened or enlarged. Common causes include genetics, prolonged standing, hormonal changes, pregnancy, and aging. While they are usually not medically dangerous, they can become more visible over time.
Most healthy adults with visible spider veins are good candidates. During your consultation, your provider will assess your veins and medical history to ensure treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
Treatment typically involves a medical solution injected directly into the affected veins. This causes the vein walls to collapse and gradually fade as the body naturally reabsorbs them. Blood is then rerouted through healthier veins.
Most patients describe the sensation as a mild pinch or sting that lasts only a few seconds per injection. Discomfort is generally minimal and well tolerated, and no anesthesia is required.
Typically 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the number of veins treated.
There is minimal downtime. Most patients return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment. You may be advised to wear compression stockings for a short period and avoid strenuous exercise for 24–48 hours.
Results develop gradually as the body clears the treated veins:

Treated veins are permanently closed and do not return. However, new spider veins may form over time due to genetics, lifestyle, or underlying vein pressure. Maintenance treatments may be recommended for long-term results.
This depends on the number, size, and location of your spider veins. Some patients see significant improvement after one session, while others may benefit from a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart.
Yes. While most commonly performed on the legs, spider vein treatment can also be used on other areas where small visible veins appear. Your provider will determine the safest and most effective approach for each area.
Side effects are rare but may include bruising, pigmentation changes, or inflammation. We monitor you closely to minimize risks.
