Spider Veins Treatment Options:

Laser Treatment is a non-invasive and safe procedure. In this treatment procedure, the doctor first applies the numbing cream on the skin to avoid discomfort. Then he uses an F.D.A.-approved device to direct the laser light toward the treatment area. The heat of laser light helps in fading away spider veins. You may need a few laser treatment sessions to get the expected outcomes. Sometimes the doctor combines laser therapy with sclerotherapy to get the best results in no time.
- Electrodesiccation:
It is a minimally invasive procedure in which a fine needle is inserted into the blood vessel, and a low-intensity electric current is passed, which helps seal the blood vessel. As it is an invasive procedure, you will need 2 to 3 days to recover.
- Sclerotherapy:
In this treatment, an injection containing a chemical solution is injected into the body, which damages the lining of blood vessels and causes scars in the venule. As a result, the spider veins fade away in 3 or 4 shots of the injections. After this procedure, no specific recovery time is needed. But you should avoid doing hard work or any type of physical activity that builds pressure on the veins.
