The VersaPulse vascular laser has revolutionized the treatment of spider veins on the legs. In the past, injection sclerotherapy was the only available treatment. The new VersaPulse vascular laser now offers an effective alternative to injections for leg veins.
Spider veins are thin, reddish-purple veins, which are visible on the legs.
Often they are clustered on the thigh, below the knee, or around the ankles. The cause is largely genetic but pregnancy, childbirth, birth control pills, estrogen replacement therapy, previous injury and steroid use are also implicated. Spider veins usually are not a medical problem, but may be a sign of more severe underlying leg vein disease. Treatment of spider veins is cosmetic and therefore we are unable to submit charges for your treatment to an insurance company. Laser therapy is not the answer for all spider veins of the leg.
