Spider veins are characterized by visible blood vessels in the feet and legs. While they are mostly harmless, many people with spider veins are often embarrassed by their appearance. They can also cause burning, aching, and pain. This discomfort is likely more noticeable after you\u2019ve been on your feet for a long period of time.<\/p>\n

Thanks to modern medicine, there are now several options for those who wish to remove spider veins<\/a>. Those who are uncomfortable with their appearance or discomfort can turn to treatment routes such as:<\/p>\n

Laser surgery dermatological treatments<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Many people opt for this type of cosmetic surgery<\/a> when they suffer from smaller spider veins. With laser surgery, dermatologists can infuse spider veins with light bursts. Over time, the veins will fade away and eventually disappear. With laser surgery, needles and incisions aren\u2019t necessary. This is another reason many people turn to this type of treatment. Common side effects of laser surgery include itching, redness, swelling, bruising, and permanent change in skin pigment.<\/p>\n

Sclerotherapy treatments in Calabasas<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This type of treatment tends to yield better results over laser surgery. Further, patients\u00a0tend to choose sclerotherapy over laser surgery when treating large spider veins. When sclerotherapy is performed, a solution is injected inside the spider veins in an effort to scar and close them. This inevitably causes blood to travel through other veins, particularly healthier ones.<\/p>\n

Within just a small number of weeks, the spider veins will begin to fade. It\u2019s possible that the treatment may need to be administered multiple times by our team of dermatologists to ensure the process completes. If an experienced dermatologist conducts the sclerotherapy treatment, the chances are extremely high that it will be a success. Sclerotherapy is usually performed in a dermatologist\u2019s office, and anesthesia isn\u2019t necessary. Patients might experience side effects such as itching, swelling and change in skin pigment.<\/p>\n

What to expect following your spider vein treatment<\/h2>\n

After several months have passed, spider veins will dramatically fade. However, there is always a possibility that they won\u2019t entirely disappear. Additionally, it\u2019s possible for the same treated area to later develop spider veins again.<\/p>\n
