Spider veins are most common in women and are usually found on the thighs, calves, and ankles. Spider veins are a small cluster or grouping of veins close to the skin surface. These are usually caused by medications, heredity, hormones, weight gain, or occupations/activities that involve extensive standing or sitting. To minimize these unsightly veins, sclerotherapy is utilized. It is a simple procedure that involves injection of a medication that will collapse the vein and cause it to fade.

A series of treatments (3-5 treatments separated by 3-4 weeks) may be required for optimal results. Risks of this treatment can include allergy, formation of blood clots, inflammation, skin injury that could cause small scars, or pigmentation changes. Patients that are not candidates for treatment are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking blood thinners.
