What is the Best Spider Vein Treatment in NJ?
Curating the Ideal Spider Vein Treatment Plan
Our state-of-the-art vein treatment clinics in New Jersey believe in comprehensive and personalized vein treatments. It may be tempting to identify the best spider vein treatment in NJ, but there’s no such thing — your spider vein treatment in NJ must be curated and personalized according to your goals and concerns. The best treatment for someone else may have less desirable consequences for you. Our vein doctors understand that spider vein treatments must be comprehensive and personalized.
That’s why we always perform thorough diagnostic evaluations before curating a spider vein treatment plan. Our vein doctors examine your leg veins, review your medical history, and discuss your symptoms, such as leg swelling, restless leg syndrome, throbbing leg veins, and frequent leg cramps. We also use advanced vascular imaging tests to visualize the blood flow in your blood vessels, allowing us to determine if your spider veins are symptomatic of underlying chronic venous insufficiency, the root cause of most vein problems.
If your spider veins are caused by underlying vein disease, we recommend minimally invasive procedures that destroy the diseased saphenous vein responsible for the spider veins, followed by cosmetic treatment. If your spider veins aren’t caused by vein disease, we straightaway proceed with cosmetic treatments for spider veins, such as sclerotherapy or laser treatment. Your spider vein treatment plan is also based on your goals, medical history, allergies, and other factors.
If you have spider veins or other symptoms of vein disease, such as leg swelling, restless leg syndrome, throbbing leg veins, or frequent leg cramps, please contact our vein doctors as soon as possible. You can find our Clifton vein center past the Ford dealership on route 46-E, and our Paramus vein center is located just off NJ-17 and next door to Bob’s Furniture at 140 NJ-17. Please schedule an appointment online for more information.
Below, we describe the best minimally invasive procedures for spider veins and varicose veins.
#1. Endovenous Radiofrequency Ablation
Endovenous radiofrequency ablation is a minimally invasive procedure wherein thermal energy is used to destroy the diseased vein responsible for your vein problems. The vein doctor makes a small incision on your skin’s surface, inserts a catheter under ultrasound guidance, and activates it to generate thermal energy and destroy the diseased vein. This procedure addresses the root cause of spider veins.
#2. Endovenous Laser Ablation
Endovenous laser ablation is a minimally invasive procedure wherein the laser energy is used to destroy the problematic vein responsible for your vein problems. The vein specialist makes a small incision on your skin’s surface, inserts a laser fiber under ultrasound guidance, and activates it to generate laser energy and collapse the diseased vein. This procedure addresses the root cause of spider veins.
#3. Mechanochemical Ablation (ClariVein)
Mechanochemical ablation, also known as ClariVein, is a minimally invasive procedure wherein mechanical energy and a sclerosant solution can destroy the diseased veins. The vein doctor inserts a catheter with a specialized rotating tip into the diseased vein to scratch its walls. The device also delivers a liquid sclerosant medicine to make its walls collapse. This procedure is especially suitable for twisted and tortuous veins.
#4. Vein Glue Treatment (VenaSeal)
VenaSeal, also known as the vein glue treatment, also addresses the root cause of spider veins and varicose veins. The vein doctor injects a medical-grade adhesive into the diseased saphenous vein responsible for your vein problems. The vein glue fuses the diseased vein’s walls, turning them into hardened scar tissues eventually absorbed by the body.
#5. Liquid Sclerotherapy
Liquid sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure wherein a liquid sclerosant solution is injected into the spider veins individually. The sclerosant solution irritates the spider veins’ walls, making them shrink, turn into scar tissues, and eventually get absorbed by the body. The spider veins gradually fade away from the skin’s surface in a few weeks. This procedure is suitable for spider veins — not the underlying vein disease.
#6. Foam Sclerotherapy
Foam sclerotherapy is a varicose vein treatment with a similar premise as liquid sclerotherapy. The liquid sclerosant solution is agitated with air, turning it into a foamy sclerosant solution. The foam solution covers more space with the same volume of medication, so it’s injected into larger varicose veins. The foam sclerosant solution fuses the varicose veins’ walls, making them get absorbed by the body.
#7. Laser Vein Treatment
Laser vein treatment is a non-invasive solution for spider veins without underlying chronic venous insufficiency. Often offered in medical spas, laser vein treatment is simple — the cosmetic provider moves a laser device over your legs, delivering laser energy into the diseased spider veins. The spider veins react to the heat by shrinking and fading away. However, laser vein treatment is extremely ineffective and necessitates multiple sessions.
#8. Ambulatory Phlebectomy
Ambulatory phlebectomy is a minimally invasive procedure wherein the superficial varicose veins are physically removed from the body via small incisions on the skin’s surface. This procedure is suitable for large varicose veins.
#9. Vascular Surgery
Vascular surgery used to be the primary vein treatment option several decades ago. Vascular surgeons would make large incisions to remove the diseased saphenous vein using hook-like devices or other techniques. However, vascular surgery is now only suitable for the most extreme cases because it carries a high risk of complications and involves downtime.
#10. Compression Stockings
Compression stockings don’t treat spider veins and varicose veins, but they can offer temporary relief from discomfort. You can wear compression stockings before your vein treatment to minimize the discomfort and leg swelling, facilitating blood circulation towards the heart. And you can wear compression stockings after your spider vein treatment to ensure optimal results.
