Spider Vein Treatment Begins with a Diagnosis
Diagnosing spider veins starts with a health history, documentation of your symptoms, and a visual examination by a vein care specialist. Imaging tests such as a duplex ultrasound might be used to assess the extent of the vein issues and to rule out other underlying conditions. This non-invasive, painless diagnostic test shows blood flow in the legs, which helps guide treatment decisions.
Treatment options, such as sclerotherapy, laser therapy, or lifestyle changes, are tailored to your needs to manage or treat spider veins effectively.

Visual Sclerotherapy
Visual sclerotherapy is used strictly for spider vein treatment. A sclerosing solution is injected directly into the affected veins. This solution irritates the vein lining, leading to the vein walls sticking together and eventually closing off. The body eventually reabsorbs the closed vein, reducing the spider veins' appearance. Visual sclerotherapy is often used for smaller veins and offers a minimally invasive option for improving both the cosmetic appearance and potential discomfort associated with spider veins.
Foam Sclerotherapy
A minimally invasive, office-based procedure, foam sclerotherapy involves creating a foam-like mixture of a sclerosing agent and air or gas. This foam has a thicker consistency than liquid (as used in traditional liquid sclerotherapy), allowing it to displace blood more effectively within the vein and come into more significant contact with the vein walls.
During the foam sclerotherapy procedure, the foam is carefully injected into the targeted problem vein using ultrasound guidance for accuracy. The foam irritates the vein lining, causing it to collapse and seal shut. Over time, the body naturally absorbs the closed vein and disappears.
