Spider Veins
Restore Comfort, Renew Confidence
When it comes to treating spider veins, it’s important to move away from the idea that a quick fix is always the best solution. While some may look to temporary solutions, these often don’t address the root causes of spider veins. For instance, certain treatments may provide short-term relief or improvement in appearance but do little for lasting results. At our clinic, we focus on targeted, effective treatments like sclerotherapy. It not only reduces the appearance of spider veins but also addresses underlying issues to provide longer-lasting outcomes.
There is an Alternative
At Laurel Clinical, we help people get smoother, healthier-looking legs using gentle treatments that don’t need big surgery. One of the main treatments we use is called sclerotherapy, which helps make spider veins fade away. It works really well and has only small side effects. We focus on doing the treatment very carefully and letting your body heal in a natural way.
What are spider veins?
Spider veins are little blue or red lines you can see on the skin. They can look like tiny spider webs or squiggly lines. Even though they might look a bit funny, they are not dangerous.
They happen when small veins get weak, and many people don’t like how they look. They are different from varicose veins, which are bigger and deeper. The good news is that spider veins can be treated easily, and there are safe ways to help them fade so your skin looks clearer.
Causes & Symptoms
Why Spider Veins Happen
Spider veins can run in families — if your parents have them, you might get them too.
Changes in hormones (like during pregnancy or growing up) can make veins weaker.
Standing or sitting for a long time can put extra pressure on your legs.
Getting older makes veins and skin less strong.
How Spider Veins Can Feel
They can sometimes itch or feel a little sore.
Some people feel a light burning feeling around them.
How Spider Veins Can Affect Confidence
Many girls and women feel shy or unhappy about how spider veins look.
Some avoid wearing shorts, dresses, or skirts because they don’t like how their legs look.
Spider Vein Removal
Sclerotherapy is the most popular and effective treatment for spider veins. A sclerosing solution is injected directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and gradually fade from view. This minimally invasive procedure requires no downtime and provides lasting results.
Laser therapy uses focused light energy to target and treat small spider veins, particularly those close to the skin’s surface. The heat from the laser causes the veins to seal shut and fade away over time. This option is often ideal for smaller veins on the face or legs.
While not a standalone treatment for removing spider veins, compression stockings can help prevent new spider veins from forming and reduce symptoms in existing veins. Often used alongside other treatments, compression therapy supports vein health and helps maintain results.
What to Expect During Your initial consultation
At Laurel Clinical, your visit with Dr. Gilles Laur is careful and personalised. He starts by talking with you about how your legs feel, your health history, and anything you’ve tried before. Dr. Laur may use special tools, like an ultrasound machine, to look closely at your veins and see what’s causing the spider veins. He checks if any deeper veins are causing the problem so he can make the best plan just for you.
Once he knows what’s going on, Dr. Laur explains the different ways he can help, including sclerotherapy, which is a common and effective treatment for spider veins. He tells you what the treatment will be like and how you’ll feel afterward. You can ask as many questions as you want, and he will make sure you understand everything. At Laurel Clinical, the goal is to help your legs feel and look better so you can feel more confident and comfortable.
