Spider veins are superficial blood vessels that appear red or
blue on the skin surface. They commonly occur on the legs, but
may also be on the face or other areas of the body. Spider veins
can occur in a small area where they are not noticeable, or they
can cover a large area of skin and be very unattractive.
If bothersome, spider veins can be treated with our Nd-YAG or
KTP lasers or by injection of a special solution that can
destroy them. They disappear or become much smaller. There is
about an 80 - 90 percent chance for a greatly improved
appearance. The number of necessary treatments depends on the
severity of your condition and the results you hope to achieve.
Dr. Sterling will advise you on which type of treatment is
best for you during your private consultation. Call the office
to schedule an appointment at 732-449-3005. As always, Dr.
Sterling’s experience and skilled injection technique will help
you get your best results.
