What Causes Visible Veins?

Spider veins and varicose veins are common cosmetic concerns that can affect anyone. These visible veins often appear due to a combination of genetics, aging, prolonged standing or sitting, pregnancy, and hormonal changes. While spider veins are typically small and web-like, varicose veins can be larger, bulging, and even painful.

At Diamond Works MedSpa, we know that these vein issues not only impact your appearance but can also cause discomfort or self-consciousness. Fortunately, non-surgical options are available to effectively treat these veins, giving you the confidence to show off your legs again.

Our Vein Removal Solutions

At Diamond Works MedSpa, we specialize in non-invasive vein removal treatments designed to eliminate unwanted veins with little to no recovery time. One of our most popular treatments is sclerotherapy, which is highly effective for both spider veins and smaller varicose veins.

Non-Surgical Vein Removal with Sclerotherapy

We use a non-surgical form of treatment called sclerotherapy. This procedure involves injecting a solution (Asclera®) into the varicose and spider veins to get them to collapse. The solution works by irritating the walls of the vein, causing them to close and gradually disappear. As time passes, the body naturally absorbs the treated vein. This quick treatment typically lasts around 30 minutes and requires no surgery or anesthesia. The number of treatments you'll need depends on how many veins you want to remove. 

Our Queens, NY office performs safe and effective treatments using the "Diamond Touch Techniques®." These techniques reduce the chance of swelling, bruising, or odd results. Sclerotherapy offers an effective way to eliminate varicose and spider veins without the risks and lengthy recovery associated with surgery. Our team is happy to guide you through the procedure and discuss additional options for your aesthetic goals.

The Sclerotherapy Treatment Process

You may wonder how sclerotherapy works and what's involved when you schedule vein removal, so we've summarized the process to keep you informed:

  1. We start with a consultation to discuss your problematic veins and explain the treatment process. Spider veins and varicose veins require professional treatment from a trained medical provider. Before the procedure, we may advise you to avoid lotions or oils.
  2. During sclerotherapy treatment, we'll have you lie on your back to evaluate the legs. We clean the area receiving treatment and then insert a tiny needle into the vein associated with the procedure. You might feel a pinch as the needle penetrates your skin.
  3. Through the inserted needle, we inject an irritating solution into the vein that affects the vein's wall lining. During the injection, you might feel tingling, burning, or no sensation at all. This solution will cause the vein to collapse.
  4. After we complete the injection, we will massage the treated area to prevent more blood flowing back into the vein. Following your appointment, we may require that you wear compression stockings or a pad over the treatment area. Some clients might need follow-up treatment so that we can collapse a vein entirely.
  5. After your treatment is complete, you should stay active to avoid any blood clots forming in the area. Sunlight can cause dark spots to form over the treated area, so staying out of the sun is advisable. Tenderness or bruising at the injection site is possible, but standard recovery from this procedure is relatively easy.

Symptoms and Concerns Associated with Visible Veins

Visible veins, especially spider and varicose veins, often impact more than appearance; they can affect physical comfort and overall quality of life. Many people experience symptoms such as aching, swelling, or a persistent heaviness in the legs, which can intensify after prolonged standing or sitting. 

Additionally, these veins may lead to sensations like itching, cramping, or even a burning feeling along the affected areas. Such symptoms can interfere with daily activities and contribute to self-consciousness, particularly when wearing shorts or skirts in warmer weather. 

Addressing these concerns with professional vein treatment not only smooths the skin's appearance but also alleviates discomfort, enhancing both mobility and confidence for the long term.

Benefits of Early Vein Treatment

Seeking vein treatment early can prevent the progression of vein issues and reduce the need for more invasive procedures in the future. Early treatment with sclerotherapy, for instance, addresses spider and smaller varicose veins before they develop into more severe conditions, which could eventually lead to complications like skin ulcers or blood clots. 

By treating veins in their early stages, you enjoy faster results and a reduced risk of recurrence, making vein removal a proactive approach to long-term vein health and comfort.

Who Should Consider Vein Removal Therapy?

Vein removal therapy is ideal for adults in good health who experience visible spider or varicose veins, whether for cosmetic reasons or to alleviate discomfort. Many people with visible veins may feel self-conscious, particularly in warmer months when wearing shorts or swimwear, while others may experience symptoms like aching, heaviness, or swelling that interferes with daily activities. Vein removal can improve both appearance and physical comfort, allowing for greater confidence and mobility.

While vein removal therapy is effective for many, some conditions—like pregnancy, recent surgery, or certain circulatory issues—may require alternative approaches. An initial consultation with Dr. Carl Clarke is crucial to create a treatment plan that aligns with your specific health requirements. Dr. Clarke's expertise allows him to assess each client thoroughly, providing safe, customized treatment plans to achieve optimal results in appearance and comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is The Recovery Time For Sclerotherapy Vein Removal?

Recovery time for sclerotherapy is minimal, allowing most patients to resume their normal activities right after the procedure. However, avoiding strenuous exercise, hot baths, and sun exposure for the first few days is recommended to ensure optimal healing. Mild bruising or swelling may occur but typically resolves within a week or two.

What Are The Potential Side Effects Of Sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is generally safe and well-tolerated, though some side effects can occur. Common side effects include mild bruising, redness, or swelling around the injection site. In rare instances, patients might experience temporary skin discoloration or small, tender bumps. These reactions are typically mild and tend to resolve on their own within a few days to a couple of weeks.

How Many Sessions Are Required For Complete Vein Removal?

The number of sessions required depends on the size and number of treated veins. For smaller veins, one or two sessions may be sufficient. Larger or more stubborn veins might require multiple treatments. Our specialists will assess your condition during your consultation and recommend a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Can Sclerotherapy Be Used For Veins On Other Parts Of The Body?

Yes, sclerotherapy is not limited to treating leg veins. It can also be used to remove veins in other areas of the body, such as the face or hands. If you're concerned about visible veins in different locations, our experts can evaluate whether sclerotherapy is the right option for you.

How Do I Know if My Vein Issue is Cosmetic or Medical?

Vein issues that cause pain, swelling, or a sensation of heaviness may indicate a medical concern and could benefit from therapeutic treatment. Cosmetic vein issues, like small spider veins that don't cause discomfort, are often treated to improve appearance rather than address medical needs. A consultation with Dr. Clarke can help determine if vein removal is necessary for medical or aesthetic reasons.

Is Vein Removal Therapy Permanent?

Vein removal therapy can provide long-lasting results, but new veins may appear over time due to factors like genetics, lifestyle, or prolonged standing. While treated veins are unlikely to return, maintaining vein health can help prolong results. Follow-up sessions may be recommended to address any newly developed veins.

Can Vein Removal Improve Circulation?

Vein removal may improve circulation by eliminating problematic veins that impede healthy blood flow, especially in cases of varicose veins. Removing these veins can help alleviate discomfort and promote healthier overall circulation. Many clients notice reduced symptoms like leg heaviness or aching following treatment.
