Spider Vein Injection Considerations
During your Spider Vein Injection consultation with Jonathan Heistein, M.D., he will answer questions you may have about the procedure or treatment and will discuss any safety concerns related to the surgery.
Spider veins are usually red or bluish in color, and appear mostly on the legs, but can also be found on the face, or on other parts of the body. They can involve only a small location, or they can be spread over much larger areas. Spider veins usually appear as “web-like” patterns resembling a spider’s web or a burst. They can also be present as shorter, unconnected lines. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Heistein offers spider vein injections in Fort Worth for patients who are looking for a safe and effective way to treat their spider veins.

The procedure involves injecting the spider veins with a solution that causes irritation in the inner wall of the vein with the resulting collapse of the vein. Spider veins are visible because of blood in the dilated vein. When the vein collapses, it no longer carries blood and is, therefore, no longer visible. Additionally, Botox cosmetics can help with certain facial wrinkles that may accompany vein issues, providing a more refreshed look.
A single area may have to be injected more than once, depending on the size of the vein, in order to gain the desired results. In any one treatment session, several areas may be injected.
The fading process is gradual with treated veins fading slowly up to several months after the last treatment. Each vein may respond differently. Some will thin and narrow, some will disappear, and some will stay open and need to be reinjected. For those interested in additional skin rejuvenation, Dermabrasion can improve the overall texture of the skin and address scarring that may have resulted from spider veins.
No anesthesia is required for spider vein sclerotherapy and support stockings are not generally needed. Normal activities may be resumed immediately, though we recommend the avoidance of sun and the use of sunblock on the treated area.
