Ready to show off your legs again with minimally invasive spider vein treatment?
Spider vein treatment isn’t just about smoother-looking legs. For many patients, it changes how they feel getting dressed, going out, and moving through their day.
Sclerotherapy for spider veins can help you:
With Dr. Alfieri’s background as a cardiologist, your treatment plan looks at the whole picture while helping you feel more comfortable and confident in your skin.
Sclerotherapy is a trusted, well-established treatment for spider veins because it’s quick, minimally uncomfortable, and requires no downtime.
Using a fine needle, we inject a solution directly into the targeted spider vein. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief pinch, and nitrous oxide is available to help you stay relaxed and comfortable.
The solution causes the vein to close, and your body naturally reabsorbs it over time, making it less visible.
Treatment typically takes well under an hour, and you can return to most normal activities the same day. Depending on the number and size of the veins being treated, you may need more than one session to reach your desired results.

Sclerotherapy is a well-established, minimally invasive treatment with a strong safety record. As with any procedure, there can be minor, temporary side effects, which we’ll walk you through in detail before your treatment so you know exactly what to expect.
Spider veins themselves are generally not a medical concern, but they don’t go away on their own and often become more noticeable over time. If you’re bothered by their appearance now, treatment is unlikely to become easier or less involved the longer you wait.
