This treatment addresses spider veins on the legs, chest, arms, hands, and décolletage. Our clinicians evaluate each area to determine the best approach—laser therapy or sclerotherapy—tailoring sessions to vein size, skin type, and treatment goals for optimal cosmetic outcomes.

Session numbers vary based on vein extent and type; most clients need two to six sessions spaced four to eight weeks apart. Small capillaries often respond faster, while larger or extensive networks may require additional treatments for the best cosmetic improvement.

Discomfort is typically mild—a brief stinging or warming sensation during treatment. You may experience temporary redness, swelling, or bruising, but most people return to normal activities immediately, using simple post-care measures like compression and sun protection as directed.

Minor side effects include temporary bruising, redness, pigmentation changes, and rare blistering or scarring. Risks are minimized by experienced providers who customize treatment settings; candidacy evaluation and proper aftercare further reduce complications.

Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and certain medications like blood thinners before treatment. Wear loose clothing and disclose medical history, medications, and allergies at consultation. Follow pre-treatment instructions provided by our team to ensure safe, effective results.

Visible improvement often appears within weeks as treated vessels fade; full results develop over several months. Multiple sessions spaced appropriately enhance outcomes, and maintenance treatments may be recommended for new or persistent veins.
