At SafiraMD Medical Aesthetics & Wellness Center in Alpharetta, we understand how frustrating spider veins can be. These small, visible vessels, which are usually red, blue, or purple, can appear on the legs, ankles, or face.
Although spider veins aren't harmful, they make many people feel self-conscious. Led by warm, empathetic physician, Dr. Andrea Volk, our luxury medical spa combines advanced technology, clinical precision, and a deeply personalized approach to help you achieve clearer skin you can feel confident in.
What Causes Spider Veins?
Spider veins develop when tiny blood vessels near the surface of the skin become dilated. Although genetics play a role, factors such as hormonal fluctuations, prolonged standing, sun exposure, and pregnancy can contribute. Aging may play a role, too, which is why many people who develop spider veins also struggle with age spots.
Though usually harmless, spider veins may signal underlying circulation issues in some cases. For most, they're primarily a cosmetic concern.
Spider Vein Treatment
At SafiraMD, we use advanced, non-surgical methods to reduce or eliminate spider veins safely and effectively. Dr. Volk and our team tailor treatment based on vein size, color, and location. Options may include:
- Laser Vein Therapy: Light energy can target the pigment (hemoglobin) inside the vein. This causes a reaction in which the vein walls collapse and fade. Laser therapy can also target another kind of pigment: The brown pigment in age spots.Â
- Sclerotherapy: With sclerotherapy, Dr. Volk uses a fine needle to deliver a sclerosing solution into the vein. This causes vein withering.
For some patients, combining treatments delivers more comprehensive results across multiple areas.
Dr. Volk and our experienced team will evaluate your skin and vein patterns to design a treatment plan that provides visible, lasting improvement with minimal discomfort or downtime.
When Spider Vein Treatment Is Worth Considering
While spider veins rarely indicate a medical emergency, treating them can significantly boost confidence and comfort.
Many patients notice smoother, more even skin tone, legs, and face that look more youthful and refreshed, relief from mild aching or heaviness in the legs, and renewed confidence wearing shorts, swimsuits, or skirts.
