How Can I Get Rid of Spider Veins on My Legs?

Do you have spider veins on your legs?

Maybe they slowly formed over the years, or perhaps you only noticed them after your last pregnancy. No matter what caused your spider veins (and we’ll talk about that in a bit), one thing is true: spider veins can make anyone feel self-conscious about how their legs look.

That’s why we’re here with a comprehensive answer to this popular question: “How can I get rid of spider veins on my legs?”

What Causes Spider Veins?

Spider veins can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

Pregnancy
Hormonal changes
Aging
Standing or sitting for too long
Genetics

How Can I Get Rid of Spider Veins?

Here at New York Skin & Vein Centers, we make getting rid of spider veins our business. That’s why we offer the following treatments to help get rid of spider veins on your legs:

Sclerotherapy: This treatment uses a special saline solution to close up spider vein walls. This causes the vein to die (don’t worry, it’s harmless!) and become absorbed by surrounding healthy tissue. Over time, the spider vein disappears, leaving behind clearer skin.

1064 Nd:Yag Laser Treatments: If you’re not a good candidate for sclerotherapy, you may see better results with laser vein removal treatments. This procedure uses laser energy to target offending spider veins and seal them shut. Like with sclerotherapy, the vein eventually disappears as it’s absorbed by surrounding tissue.

The first step is to schedule an in-person consultation with one of our highly trained providers at New York Skin & Vein Center located in Oneonta, NY, serving the surrounding New York City areas with additional offices in Norwich, Binghamton, and Cobleskill.

Am I a Good Candidate for Spider Vein Treatments?

★★★★★ 5/5

I’ve now had two procedures with NY Skin & Vein—one injection and one laser treatment. The care providers put me at ease by answering my questions. They’re clearly very experienced and knowledgeable. The staff in the office is professional and warm. I also appreciate their holistic approach to skincare (dermatological & cosmetic injections and laser services, as well as ZO skincare products). Looking forward to my next visit.

What a fantastic group of people that are employed at the Binghamton office. Always treat you like family and put you at ease IF you are the least bit apprehensive about procedures. DR. Stanley Anderson is absolutely amazing. Unbelievable with fantastic results. Love the way he explained EVERY little detail and options.Most appreciative of his patience with me.Highly recommend.

Doctor Dohner and his staff (at multiple locations I've visited) are all amazing. I visited the Binghamton office today after not being seen in 7 years. I was able to get a quick appointment, when I arrived they had everything ready for me and I was taken right back and had my procedure done. I have never experienced anything but professionalism and compassion from Dr. Dohner. I highly recommend seeing him and his excellent staff for anything vein related.

I went in to get my lips enhanced and some fillers. Though it wasn't the most pleasant procedure I've ever gone through. Erin and Dr. Dohner kept my mind busy with their witty and funny banter. My lips look great! Dr. Dohner and his staff are professional, compassionate, and they make sure you are comfortable and ready for your procedures. They will definitely be seeing more of me.

I came to Dr. Dohner with aching/ throbbing, leg pain, bulging veins, and tired/heavy legs. Dr. Dohner did an in office vein procedure to fix my veins. The office got me in to have the procedure within one week, before the new year because I had already met my deductible. What a wonderful experience. Thank You everyone so much.

I came to see Dr. Dohner because my legs really ached, and I had a difficult time to put a sock on my left leg because of swelling and tender to the touch. He did an in office procedure to close my veins. I can now put my sock on with no problem. I walk a lot better and can climb stairs without them aching. It was great that I didn’t have to fast and could be awake during the procedure.
