Love Your Legs Again with Cardiologist-Led Vein Care
When spider veins make you feel self-conscious about showing your legs, even wearing your favorite outfits can become frustrating. Spider vein treatment in Lewes can help you feel comfortable in your skin again.
At Delaware Advanced Vein Center, we use minimally invasive sclerotherapy to reduce unwanted spider veins, helping you achieve clearer-looking legs with little disruption to your routine.
Led by Dr. Anthony Alfieri, a cardiologist and vein specialist with 30+ years in healthcare, we evaluate your vascular health to identify underlying issues and recommend the right treatment for your needs.
As a local, physician-owned practice, we take the time to listen to your concerns, explain your options, and provide personalized care you won’t find at a large corporate clinic.
Sclerotherapy offers a simple way to reduce unwanted spider veins and achieve clearer-looking legs without surgery or a long recovery.
With sclerotherapy, you can:
Get back to feeling good about your legs with treatment that fits into your routine.
Once Dr. Alfieri evaluates your vein health and confirms sclerotherapy is right for you, treatment can be completed in just a short office visit.
Dr. Alfieri uses a small needle to inject a medical solution into the affected veins, with ultrasound guidance when needed to reach veins beneath the skin’s surface.
The injected solution causes the treated veins to seal shut, allowing your body to gradually break them down and absorb them over the following weeks.
Most appointments take about 10 to 30 minutes, and you can typically resume your usual daily activities soon afterward with minimal downtime.
Spider veins and varicose veins may both be visible on your legs, but their appearance, symptoms, and treatment needs can be very different.

Sclerotherapy is generally safe, but you may experience temporary bruising, swelling, or changes in skin color. Dr. Alfieri will explain any potential risks and what to expect during recovery.
Spider veins are usually harmless, but they may become more prominent or increase in number over time. If you’re experiencing pain, swelling, or heaviness, we recommend an evaluation to check for underlying vein problems.
