Consider sclero: Sclerotherapy, which is the injection of the spider veins with a special solution, is a good way to get rid of the ugly veins, and improve the cosmetic appearance of your legs.

Sclerotherapy : Spider veins on the legs are best treated by sclerotherapy either liquid or foam. I prefer polidocanol as my treatment of choice. The limiting factor to treat spider veins is their size. If they are too small for the needle then a topical laser or micro needle radio frequency device may be used.

Therapy: Different options include: Sclerotherapy, Endovenous laser treatments, Radiofrequency occlusion, Surgery. 1) Sclerotherapy: highly concentrated saline solution injected directly into the vein 2) Laser: small laser fiber is inserted into the vein 3) Radiofrequency: radiofrequency energy to the vein wall, causing it to heat, collapse, and seal shut 4) Surgery Cheers C
