Sclerotherapy (Leg Spider Vein Removal)
One day, you are getting dressed, and suddenly you notice those tiny red or blue veins spreading across your legs like little spider webs. At first, they seem small, but over time, they can become more visible and harder to ignore.
Spider veins and varicose veins are incredibly common, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with them. Thanks to modern treatments like Sclerotherapy and the Candela Max Pro Laser, clearer, smoother skin is more achievable than ever.
What Is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is one of the most widely used and trusted treatments for spider and varicose veins. During the procedure, a specialized solution is injected directly into the affected vein. This solution irritates the vein’s inner lining, causing it to collapse and seal shut. Once closed, the body reroutes blood through healthier veins, and the treated vein gradually fades away.
Over time, the body absorbs the collapsed vein, leaving the skin looking clearer and more even. Sclerotherapy has been used for decades and remains a gold standard treatment for many types of leg veins.
The Candela Max Pro Laser
While injections work well for many veins, some smaller or more delicate veins respond better to laser treatment. The Candela Max Pro Laser is an advanced medical laser that targets pigment in visible veins with controlled light energy. Laser heat damages the vein walls, causing them to collapse and fade naturally over time.
The Candela Max Pro laser is especially effective for:
- Smaller spider veins
- Veins that are difficult to inject
- Facial veins
- Sensitive areas of the skin
By combining Sclerotherapy with laser technology, practitioners can treat a wider range of veins and create smoother, more natural-looking results.
Can Facial Veins Be Treated Too?
Yes. In addition to leg veins, the Candela Max Pro Laser can also treat visible facial veins. These veins often appear around the:
- Nose
- Cheeks
- Chin
They can be caused by sun exposure, rosacea, genetics, or thinning skin. Laser treatment precisely targets these tiny vessels without damaging the surrounding skin, making it a safe and effective solution for facial vein removal.

What to Expect During the Procedure
Spider vein treatment is typically quick and straightforward.
A typical appointment may include:
- A consultation and evaluation of the veins
- Targeted injections for treatable veins
- Laser treatment for smaller or delicate vessels
Most sessions take 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the number of veins being treated.
Patients often describe the sensation as a small pinch from the injection or a quick snap from the laser. The treatment is generally well-tolerated and does not require anesthesia.
Recovery and Results
One of the reasons this treatment is so popular is the minimal downtime. Most patients return to normal activities right away, although your provider may recommend:
- Wearing compression stockings
- Avoiding intense workouts for a short time
- Limiting sun exposure
Results appear gradually as the treated veins fade and the body absorbs them.
Many people choose vein removal simply because it helps them feel more confident in their skin.
Benefits of treatment include:
- Smoother, clearer legs
- Reduced visibility of spider veins
- Improved skin appearance
- Long-lasting results
For many patients, it means finally feeling comfortable wearing shorts, dresses, or swimwear again.
Spider veins and varicose veins are common, but you don’t have to live with them if they bother you.
If you’ve been thinking about removing spider veins from your legs or facial veins, this combination approach may be the solution you’ve been looking for.
