Do Spider Veins Go Away On Their Own?

Do Spider Veins Go Away On Their Own? 

Spider veins become visible when the walls of blood vessels become stretched, revealing the pigments inside. Once these vessels become stretched, they will not go back to normal. Eliminating the appearance of spider veins means closing off problem veins so the body can absorb them. 

How Can I Get Rid of My Spider Veins? 

The right spider vein treatment for you depends on where your spider veins are located, their size, their color, and other factors. All are minimally invasive and have little to no downtime. To get rid of spider veins, we may recommend: 

Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is a procedure used to treat many types of spider veins. A medical solution is injected into the vein, which causes the vein to collapse. The solution causes the walls of the vein to stick together, which blocks blood flow and causes the vein to be reabsorbed by the body. The procedure offers an effective treatment for spider veins, but multiple sessions may be required for optimal results. This is used for blue veins around your eyes, forehead, breasts or legs. 

1064 Nd:Yag Laser Treatments

1064 Nd:Yag laser treatment is a type of laser therapy used to treat spider veins. The laser emits a specific wavelength of light that targets the pigments inside your spider veins, causing them to collapse and disappear. Because it targets spider veins without affecting the skin, you can expect little to no downtime. This is used on the face, body, and legs.

VeinGogh™

VeinGogh™ uses a special device to deliver fine, high-frequency electrical impulses through a small probe. This causes the vein walls to heat up and collapse, and the body will absorb the veins over time. VeinGogh™ makes an excellent choice for spider veins too small for sclerotherapy. This is used for spider veins on the nose and ankles.
