Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know About Spider Vein Treatment at Veinsthetics
What are spider veins?
​Spider veins are small, damaged veins that appear on the surface of the skin—often on the legs or face. They may look red, blue, or purple and resemble a spider web or tree branches. While usually harmless, they can be a cosmetic concern for many people.
What is sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical, FDA-approved treatment used for cosmetic vein removal such as spider veins. A medical solution is injected directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and be naturally absorbed by the body over time. This results in clearer, smoother skin with little to no downtime.
Is spider vein treatment painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during sclerotherapy. You may feel a mild stinging or cramping sensation during the injection, but the procedure is generally well tolerated and quick—typically lasting about 15 to 30 minutes.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of spider vein treatments needed varies based on the size, number, and location of the veins. Many clients see improvement after just one session, but 2–4 treatments may be recommended for optimal results. We'll discuss a personalized plan during your consultation.
Is there any downtime after the procedure?
No significant downtime is required. You can resume most daily activities immediately after treatment. We may recommend compression stockings and avoiding strenuous activity for a few days to enhance your results.
Are the results permanent?
Sclerotherapy can permanently remove treated veins, but it does not prevent new spider veins from developing over time. Many clients return for maintenance treatments to keep their skin looking clear and healthy.
Is sclerotherapy safe?
Yes. Sclerotherapy is a safe, FDA-approved treatment performed by our licensed and experienced nurse practitioner. Complications are rare, and we'll review all potential risks and aftercare steps with you before starting.
How do I know if I’m a good candidate?
If you have visible spider veins, are in generally good health and looking for cosmetic vein removal, you are likely a great candidate for our treatment. During your initial consultation, we'll evaluate your veins and overall health to create a plan that works for you.
