Spider veins may not be a medical concern, but they can cause you to feel self-conscious. With small vein sclerotherapy, your spider veins can be gone in a couple of months. If you have tried adjusting your standing habits, or are using compression stockings but aren’t seeing any improvement, sclerotherapy offers an effective option. Our comprehensive treatment utilizes both an injection into the affected area and if necessary, laser treatments to ensure that you get the look you want. The team at Pacific Vein Care in McHenry, IL offers effective sclerotherapy treatment for the removal of spider veins and we look forward to helping you too.
What Causes Spider Veins?
There are a number of different factors that can cause spider veins, from genetics and obesity to birth control pills and HRT following menopause. These broken veins are also prevalent in people whose professions require them to stand for long periods of time, such as nurses and hair stylists. These veins can also be present in people who suffer from blood clots or who have experienced an injury or trauma to the affected area. Whatever the cause, most people just want to get rid of them! Fortunately, the treatment for spider vein removal is much less complex than that for varicose veins. Small vein sclerotherapy has very little downtime, making it a popular procedure to get rid of spider veins.
How Many Sessions are Necessary?
While every case is different, there is a typical treatment protocol that is followed for most patients. There is a single injection of sclerotherapy which should take care of eliminating all of your spider veins. Eight weeks after your injection you will return for a follow-up and examination of the effectiveness of the injection. If there are veins that did not respond to the treatment, or if you do not feel that the treatment was effective enough, a laser treatment can then be used to get the results you desire. There may be situations where our team wants to do another injection based on your specific case, but this is not typical.
If you are tired of seeing your spider veins and want to have smooth and clear skin, it’s time to look into sclerotherapy. Contact the team at Pacific Vein Care to schedule your initial consultation today!
Thought about you in Hawaii

I can walk to my mail box again
by John Neumann, patient
Category: reviews“I had problems walking to my mail box when I went to Pacific Vein Care. Dr. Conti found I had vein reflux and artery problems in both of my legs. He did his normal vein procedure on one leg and a special procedure at the hospital on the other leg and corrected the artery problems at the same time. I am very happy with the results from the procedures done at Pacific Vein Care to correct both my veins and artery problems. I can walk to my mail box again and not have to stop and rest part way there.”
I am pleased to say my quality of life is back
by Barbara Hoffman, patient
Category: reviews“For thirty Years I have put up with leg pain, throbbing and swelling due to varicose veins. At 63 years old, I made a choice to have Radiofrequency Ablation therapy and I am pleased to say my quality of life is back. I can now take long walks, exercise and stand for long period of time without discomfort. I recently purchased a pair of tall stylish boots and I can actually zip them up because I no longer suffer from edema.”
The procedures were not hard to go through and the result was a tremendous relief.
by Wayne, patient
Category: reviews“I recently – April/May of 2012 – had VNUS procedures done on my right and left legs. Dr. Conti and his staff were superb in the diagnosis and treatment of my condition. The process was fully explained to me and were virtually pain free. There was some discomfort in the week or two after the procedures which were easily handled by over the counter pain medications. I was impressed with Dr. Conti’s knowledge and professionalism and would recommend anyone waiting to treat their varicose veins NOT to wait. The procedures were not hard to go through and the result was a tremendous relief.”
