What is Spider Vein Removal?

A patient may be a candidate if they have one or more of the following symptoms:

• Pain, aching or burning sensations
• Swelling or redness at the site
• Cramping of the legs, especially at night
• Scaly, dry or discolored skin
• Discomfort after sitting or standing for long periods



Many people seek Spider Vein Removal because their veins are unattractive or because the diseased veins are causing unpleasant and/or dangerous symptoms. If you are troubled by varicose veins, schedule a consultation with us and see if Spider Vein Removal is right for you.

You can expect to see improvement in the appearance of your leg veins immediately following the first treatment. However, more than one treatment session is often needed to fully clear blood vessels and reduce the appearance of the leg veins completely. Treatment plans can be adjusted to fit everyone’s lifestyle – speak to your provider regarding desired downtime, comfort, and results.

After the Spider Vein Removal procedure, patients are able to return home shortly. Most patients can return to work and resume normal activities the next day. We recommend avoiding exercise and strenuous activities for a week or two. Compression bandages usually need to be worn for about a week after the procedure. Although it may take up to a month for the patient to see full results, improvement is usually visible immediately.
