Spider Veins
appearing on the legs can be treated with Sclerotherapy. This treatment
is accomplished by injecting a sclerosing solution into the veins causing them
to resorb and disappear over 6–12 weeks. The treatment is safe with minimal
discomfort. Support hose must be worn immediately after the procedure, but no
down time is required and a normal lifestyle can be resumed.
Unwanted Facial veins or telangiectasias can
be treated with laser therapy. This is safe and quick treatment with a small amount
of immediate redness and occasional minor bruising which should dissipate quickly.
As with most laser procedures, there is a little discomfort and stinging during
the procedure but it is short term and most patients tolerate it very well.
