Spider veins can be a real pain to deal with in your day-to-day life, especially if you’re one of the many people who take their skincare as seriously as it deserves to be. Those bothersome little clusters of blood vessels can take your smooth, well-maintained legs and undo the hard work you’ve put into them to look pristine. Thankfully, if spider veins are causing you discomfort and self-consciousness, you’re not without options. With the aid of laser vein treatment for spider veins, you’ll be able to clear up those clutters in no time—allowing you to regain the confidence you have in your legs.

Though it may come off as a complicated procedure, laser vein treatment for spider veins is actually quite the opposite. Not only is it a relatively straightforward procedure, but it also brings with it numerous benefits that you’d likely regret taking advantage of, including:

A Non-Invasive and Painless Solution to Spider Veins

One of the most popular benefits of laser vein treatment for spider veins is that the process is fully non-surgical and virtually painless for most patients. Depending on the extent of the spider vein clusters that need treatment and the treatment method you choose, the process can also be completely non-invasive as well!

An Improvement In Your Overall Confidence and Self-Esteem

What naturally follows from resolving the spider vein blemishes around your legs is a boost to your self-perception and body image. With renewed confidence in your body and overall self-esteem, you’ll certainly feel more at peace with yourself and your looks.

A Quick and Convenient Treatment With Minimal Side Effects

In addition to all of the above, laser vein treatment for spider veins can be conducted in short sessions that provide long-lasting results—all with little to no side effects to deal with during the days after your treatment. For most patients, the extent of any negative side effects they experience after their appointments is some minor redness and swelling around the treatment site that usually subsides within just a few days.

What Are Spider Veins?

Spider veins are capillaries in the skin that have dilated and become visible from the surface. They may present as thin, branching red, blue, purple, or green lines and are most common in the legs, but may also occur on the cheeks, nose, and elsewhere on the body.

While spider veins are related to various conditions, the most common causes are pregnancy, weight gain, and the simple process of aging. Genetics and lifestyle choices, including sun exposure, and jobs that require prolonged standing or sitting can also contribute to the development of spider veins. However, the cause is generally irrelevant to the cure. Spider vein treatment is suitable for nearly everyone.

Treatment Options

Treatment options for spider veins include:

• Sclerotherapy. Sclerotherapy treats both spider veins and varicose veins. It involves the injection of a solution into the veins that causes them to constrict and close. This is the most common treatment for spider veins, but not always the most comfortable
• Laser Vein Treatment. Dr. Greene can also use lasers to treat spider veins. This virtually painless procedure utilizes concentrated energy to significantly reduce the appearance of spider veins from outside the body. Laser treatment is accurate, virtually painless, and won’t damage the skin. Because it is quick and minimally invasive, many of our patients opt for this advanced spider vein treatment
