what are Spider Veins?
Spider veins are small, visible blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin. They may appear red, blue, or purple and often develop in branching or web-like patterns, particularly on the legs.
While spider veins are generally cosmetic, factors such as genetics, age, hormonal changes, pregnancy, prolonged standing, and sun exposure may contribute to their development.
sclerotherapy for spider veins
Sclerotherapy is a proven, minimally invasive treatment designed to reduce the appearance of unwanted spider veins, particularly on the legs. During treatment, a specialized solution, Asclera, is carefully injected directly into the targeted vein, causing it to close and gradually fade as the body naturally redirects blood flow to healthier vessels.
Sclerotherapy is especially effective for small to medium-sized spider and reticular veins that may be too large or deep for certain laser treatments. The number of sessions needed varies depending on the size, number, and location of the veins being treated.
