How To Get Rid of Spider Veins

Living with evil spider veins? You’re not alone. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, close to 55% of women have some sort of vein problem. But you don’t have to live with it any longer. Find out how you can eliminate spider veins below:

Even though there isn’t much you can do to prevent spider veins - if they run in your family, you’re likely to get them too - there are some treatments to get rid of them. The most effective, sclerotherapy, consists of injecting a solution into the faulty vein. This will cause the vein to collapse allowing blood to flow safely back into the bloodstream.

Does it hurt? Sclerotherapy feels like any other injection. If takes just a few minutes and doesn’t require any downtime. Bruising may occur but it usually clears up within a week or two.

Are there any other options? There is a painless version of the treatment called cryo-sclerotherapy which involves blasting the skin with cool air to numb it. Foam sclerotherapy is a third option which uses foam to cling to the vein wall, but this procedure can take longer to see results.

At Mark Medical Care, sclerotherapy is one of our many specialties. Give us a call today at 631-574-2060 to learn more or to schedule an appointment.
