Is there any kind of medicine a dermotologist can give to help spider veins?!


Question: No, there are no medications, topical creams or ointments that will make any difference. There is rarely any real medical concern over spider veins. It is primarily a cosmetic issue affecting a large number of women. There are treatments available ranging from Sclerotherapy to the most commonly used procedure of Laser treatment.

Laser treatments last for 15 to 20 minutes. Depending on the severity of the veins, two to five treatments are generally needed to remove spider veins in the legs. Patients can return to normal activity right after treatment, just as with sclerotherapy. For spider veins larger than 3 mm, laser therapy is not very practical. Good luck.
