It is an effective and well-documented treatment for permanently removing spider veins on the legs. Using a fine needle, a sugar-based solution is injected into the affected blood vessels, causing the vessel walls to become irritated and break down. The treatment is performed by specially trained cosmetic nurses and is almost painless. After the first treatment, a reduction of spider veins by up to 70% can be expected. For optimal results, 2–3 treatments are often recommended, spaced 3–4 weeks apart. The treated vessels disappear permanently, but new spider veins may appear over time, so annual follow-up treatments may be necessary. The treatment is most effective during the winter months but can also be performed in summer with proper sun protection. A free consultation is recommended to assess treatment needs and develop an individual plan.
