What are Spider Veins ?
Spider veins are tiny, blown-up veins appearing in web or thread-like clusters. They are usually red or purple and can appear anywhere on the body, though they’re most commonly found on the legs and face. While they aren’t dangerous, many seek treatment due to their appearance. Here’s everything you need to know about the condition, including its symptoms, causes, and spider vein treatment options.

Spider Vein Treatment Options
SCLEROTHERAPY: SPIDER VEIN TREATMENT
Sclerotherapy is a very common spider vein treatment. It involves injecting a sclerosant solution (in our case, Dextrose or Aethoxysclerol) into the vein to seal it and stop blood from flowing through it. Once it’s sealed, your body will gradually absorb it. This tried and true procedure lets us target larger spider veins and feeder veins deeper under the skin’s surface.
Nd:YAG Laser Spider Vein Treatment
The Nd:YAG laser, which we also use in the CLaCS procedure, is NON-INVASIVE. No injections, no incisions. It is a specialised laser that targets spider vein clusters through the skin, heating them up and sealing them shut. To ensure the procedure is comfortable, we’ll use cryotherapy to take the laser heat away from the skin. So, in short, it will feel similar to laser hair removal.
CLaCS (Cryo Laser & Cryo Sclerotherapy)
CLaCS, or Cryo Laser and Cryo Sclerotherapy, innovatively combines transdermal laser technology and mild sclerosant injections to treat complex spider vein clusters. This minimally invasive procedure uses controlled heat from a specialised laser, augmented reality, sclerotherapy injections, and cryotherapy for clearer skin, minimal downtime, and a comfortable treatment experience.
