Varicose Vein Treatment

Veins can cause discomfort, pain, and affect your appearance, we’re here to help.

While many people seek treatment for varicose veins for cosmetic reasons, a significant number of patients actually have an underlying medical issue contributing to their vein problems — often without realizing it. That’s why we recommend an ultrasound evaluation to determine if there’s a deeper medical condition involved. If the underlying medical issue isn’t properly addressed, even after removing the visible veins, the problem is likely to return over time. Identifying and treating the root cause ensures longer-lasting, more effective results and supports your overall vein health.

Facial varicose vein removal targets enlarged or visible veins that appear on the face, often caused by weakened or damaged vein walls. Treatment helps improve skin appearance and reduce redness or discoloration. One of the primary methods we use is sclerotherapy, which involves carefully injecting a solution into the affected veins to cause them to collapse and fade over time.

What Is Sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment in which a specialized solution is carefully injected into visible facial veins. This solution causes the veins to collapse and gradually fade from view. The procedure is highly effective for improving skin appearance and reducing the visibility of facial varicose veins.

What to Expect

Facial varicose vein removal is generally not painful, and most patients experience only minimal discomfort during the procedure. Recovery is typically quick, with little to no downtime.

Most people can resume normal activities right away, though it’s best to avoid strenuous activity or excessive facial pressure for a few days.

Risks are minimal but may include temporary redness, mild swelling, or bruising at the treatment site, which usually resolve on their own.

Results

The benefits of facial varicose vein removal are primarily cosmetic, with the added advantage of improving skin comfort and appearance. Treatment helps diminish visible, enlarged veins on the face, creating a more even skin tone and smoother complexion.

Many patients notice a significant boost in confidence after seeing the reduction or complete fading of facial veins. Results are long-lasting, though new veins may develop over time, and maintenance treatments can help preserve your results.

Pricing

Treatments start at $150 per vein. Pricing for varicose vein removal may vary depending on the method used and the extent of treatment, with an office visit required to determine the exact cost. Coverage for these procedures depends on your plan and the medical necessity of the procedure, so it’s essential to check with your provider.
