Spider and Varicose Veins

If the unsightly appearance of spider and varicose veins prohibits you from enjoying certain activities, Advanced Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery may be able to help. Caused by heredity, trauma, hormonal influences, obesity and prolonged standing, these abnormal veins can be successfully treated.

Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical technique used in the treatment of spider and varicose veins. After solution is injected into the vessels with a tiny needle, the veins seal themselves off and are reabsorbed by the body. Since blood flow is redirected toward the many other normal veins, it is not hindered in any way.

Laser Vein Therapy

For removal of spider veins on the face and legs, Advanced Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery uses the newest and most effective lasers. Lasers produce an intense but gentle burst of light that selectively destroys the blood vessels in vascular lesions. They are often used in combination with traditional sclerotherapy.

Self Diagnosis

Please note that self diagnosis is not a substitute for visiting one of our Board Certified Dermatologists, Physician Assistants or Aestheticians.
