Removing spider veins on the legs is getting rid of unnecessary veins that have formed on the body.

General information

There are two ways to eliminate these veins:

  • Microsclerotherapy. During this operation, a special mixture is injected into the smallest veins, which causes small and larger veins to disappear.
  • Laser treatment. This method is used mainly when microsclerotherapy is not possible.

The causes of dilation of skin capillaries are hormonal changes, hereditary weakness of the vessel walls and excessive sun exposure.

Laser brings very good results in getting rid of dilated capillaries.

Procedure

Preparation

To establish a diagnosis, a phlebologist conducts a visual examination of the patient. Sometimes an ultrasound scan of the lower extremities may be necessary.

Removal of spider veins on the legs

Like microsclerotherapy, the laser procedure is considered very effective and high-quality. This process is carried out under application anesthesia. During the operation, the skin is first treated with an antiseptic. To prevent burns, the dermatological cover is constantly cooled. When exposed to radiation, veins darken and thrombose or disappear. Several sessions are required.

Rehabilitation period

After the procedure, small red spots may form on the operated part of the body, which disappear on their own. The specialist's final conclusion can be heard in eight weeks.

Indications

There are a number of conditions under which it is necessary to remove spider veins on the lower extremities with a laser:

  • insertion of the needle into the veins is impossible;
  • there are symptoms that prohibit another intervention;
  • the tendency of veins to re-growth.

Contraindications

You should pay attention to some things, in the presence of which it is not recommended to use this operation:

  • keloid thrombi;
