Vein Treatment

Spider veins—those small, red or purple veins that often appear on the legs or face—are typically harmless, but they can still be bothersome. For many people, even simple clothing choices become frustrating when they’re trying to hide visible veins.

At AlluraMD, we specialize in two proven techniques for eliminating or minimizing the appearance of spider veins: laser vein therapy and sclerotherapy. Both methods are safe, non-surgical, and performed in a comfortable, medically guided setting. Whether you're hoping to feel more comfortable in shorts and skirts, reduce facial veins that you’ve been covering with makeup, or simply want clearer skin for your own confidence, our team will help you choose the treatment that best fits your goals.

Our dedicated team members perform every treatment with care, precision, and respect for your comfort to deliver results that support your confidence and skin health.

Vein Therapy Treatment Areas

Face

Laser vein therapy is often used on the face to target delicate spider veins around the nose, cheeks, and chin. The precision of laser energy makes it ideal for treating small, visible veins in sensitive facial areas.

Legs

Sclerotherapy is most commonly used on the legs, especially the thighs, calves, and ankles, where spider veins and small varicose veins frequently appear. Laser therapy can also be used on the legs for finer surface veins or in areas where injections may be less practical.

Ankles and Feet

Both sclerotherapy and laser treatments can be used around the ankles and feet, though extra care is taken due to increased pressure and sensitivity in these areas. These veins often respond well to treatment but may require more than one session.

Chest and Décolletage

Some patients experience small, broken capillaries in the chest area due to sun damage or aging. Laser vein therapy can be an effective solution for reducing their appearance and restoring clearer skin.

Vein Treatment Cost

Vein treatment with laser therapy or sclerotherapy typically ranges from $250 to $600 per session, depending on the treatment area, number of veins treated, and the number of sessions required to achieve your desired results. Some patients may only need one visit, while others benefit from a short series of treatments. During your consultation, your provider will evaluate your concerns and create a personalized plan with transparent pricing tailored to your needs.

How Vein Treatment Works

Spider veins are small, visible veins that lie close to the surface of the skin. They often appear red, purple, or blue and may resemble fine lines, webs, or branches. Most commonly found on the legs and face, these veins form when blood collects in tiny vessels due to weakened valves or increased pressure in the vein walls. Common contributing factors include genetics, aging, hormonal shifts, sun exposure, and prolonged standing.

Although spider veins are usually harmless, many people choose to treat them for cosmetic reasons. At AlluraMD, we offer two clinically proven methods to safely reduce or eliminate their appearance. Each method has its strengths, with the best option depending on your individual needs. Our team will guide you toward the right choice based on your vein size, location, skin tone, and overall health.

Laser Vein Therapy

Uses focused light energy to gently heat and collapse unwanted veins. Over time, the treated veins fade from view as the body reabsorbs them naturally. This option is often used for finer facial veins or areas where precision is important.

Sclerotherapy

Involves injecting a medical-grade solution directly into the spider vein. The solution causes the vein walls to collapse and seal shut. The body then absorbs the closed vein, leaving the skin clearer. Sclerotherapy is especially effective for small to medium-sized leg veins.

Vein Treatment FAQs

Treated veins are closed off and absorbed by the body, so they won’t return. However, new spider veins can develop in the future, especially if underlying causes (like genetics or prolonged standing) remain.

This depends on the vein’s size, location, and your skin type. Laser is often better for small facial veins, while sclerotherapy is ideal for leg veins. Your provider will help you choose the best option.

Most people find both sclerotherapy and laser vein treatments very tolerable. You might feel a slight stinging, warming, or tingling sensation, but any discomfort is brief and minimal.

Most patients begin to see improvement within 2 to 6 weeks. Some patients may need more than one session depending on the severity and number of veins being treated..

Absolutely. Vein treatments are safe and effective for all genders, especially for visible facial veins or leg veins caused by genetics or lifestyle factors.
