What Are Spider Veins?
Spider veins (telangiectasias) and reticular veins are small, visible blood vessels that appear near the surface of the skin. They commonly develop on the legs, ankles, and feet. While they are usually not medically dangerous, they can cause discomfort, self-consciousness, and in some cases, aching or heaviness in the legs.
Spider veins can be caused by genetics, hormonal changes, pregnancy, prolonged standing, aging, and sun exposure. Sclerotherapy is a proven medical treatment that helps reduce their appearance and improve circulation.
Treatment Areas
Spider Veins
Small red, purple, or blue vessels that appear close to the skin surface, typically on the legs and face.
Reticular Veins
Larger blue-green veins that sit just beneath the skin surface and may feed smaller spider veins.
Small Varicose Veins
Twisted, raised veins that may cause aching or heaviness; sclerotherapy can treat smaller versions effectively.
The Treatment Process
Consultation
We review your medical history, assess your veins, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals.
Preparation
The treatment area is cleaned. No anesthesia is needed — the needles used are extremely fine and discomfort is minimal.
Injection
A sclerosant solution is injected into each vein, causing the vein walls to collapse and seal shut naturally.
Aftercare
Compression stockings are recommended. You can walk and resume normal activities immediately after your session.
Recovery & Aftercare
Immediately After
- Walk and resume light activities right away
- Wear compression stockings as directed
- Avoid hot baths, saunas, and intense exercise for 48–72 hours
- Some mild bruising or redness is normal and temporary
Long-Term Recovery
- Treated veins gradually fade over 3–6 weeks
- Avoid direct sun exposure on treated areas for 2–3 weeks
- Apply sunscreen to prevent hyperpigmentation
- Follow-up sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for best results
Before & After Results
Individual results may vary. Photos show actual patient outcomes after completing recommended treatment sessions. Results depend on vein severity, skin type, and adherence to aftercare instructions.
