UNDERSTANDING SPIDER VEINS

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

  • WHAT CAUSES SPIDER VEINS?

    Spider veins appear as delicate web-like patterns just beneath your skin's surface when tiny blood vessels become enlarged and visible. While these small veins typically don't pose health risks, their appearance can affect your confidence and comfort in showing your legs.


    Expert Insight: Spider veins often appear in clusters and can signal underlying vein issues that deserve expert evaluation.


  • WHAT SYMPTOMS DEVELOP DUE TO SPIDER VEINS?

    While most spider veins are primarily cosmetic, some people experience:


    • Mild tingling sensations
    • Localized discomfort
    • Burning feelings, especially in larger clusters

    These symptoms may indicate the presence of deeper vein issues that our specialists can evaluate during your consultation.


  • WHAT TREATMENT OPTIONS DO I HAVE FOR SPIDER VEINS?

    At Vascular Solutions, we offer two advanced solutions for spider vein treatment:


    Precision Sclerotherapy 

    Using Asclera®, an advanced injectable solution, we can effectively treat spider veins 1-3mm in diameter. This targeted treatment:


    • Causes veins to naturally fade away
    • Requires minimal downtime
    • Can be enhanced with ultrasound guidance for optimal precision
    • Shows progressive improvement over time

    Advanced Laser Treatment 

    Our state-of-the-art Cynosure ICON® laser offers:


    • Precise targeting of tiny veins (under 1mm)
    • Quick, 30-minute sessions
    • Minimal discomfort
    • No incisions or needles

    Expert Insight: Most patients achieve optimal results with 1-3 treatment sessions, depending on the extent and size of their spider veins.


  • WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER LASER TREATMENT FOR SPIDER VEINS?

    Recovery & Care 

    Our treatments allow you to return to most daily activities immediately. For best results:


    • Wear recommended compression stockings
    • Avoid strenuous exercise for one week
    • Protect treated areas from sun exposure
    • Use SPF 30+ sunscreen during healing
