Spider Vein Treatment Atlanta

Spider veins are small blood vessels visible on the leg, ankle, or the face. They are progressive, and increase in size and number with age. Spider veins are not the same as varicose veins, which are larger, deeper veins that are lumpy and deeper purple in color. Varicose veins are often uncomfortable, whereas spider veins do not cause any pain. Spider vein therapy usually involves injecting the vessels with an agent that causes them to scar and become less noticeable. However, this method is often painful and wrought with complications. Therefore, Dr. Jones uses advanced micro-surgery technology allowing him to collapse the thin veins without pain. Since the spider vein condition is progressive, the patient can expect new spider veins to occur over time, which may require the treatment every few years to maintain the improved look.

Dr. Jones will discuss your desires with you and explain the details about treating spider veins effectively. There are a couple different procedures available to treat spider veins, and Dr. Jones can help you determine the treatment that is most suitable for you.

Please call Dr. Jones’s office to schedule a consultation or for more information about spider vein therapy.
