Before & After Vein Removal

What Is Vein Removal?

This cosmetic and therapeutic procedure is designed to eliminate or reduce the appearance of three different types of problematic veins:

Spider Veins (small red or purple veins visible just beneath the skin’s surface)
Reticular Veins (medium-sized blue or green veins)
Varicose Veins (larger, raised veins that are often swollen with blood)

Michigan Cosmetic Surgery specializes in two effective, non-surgical treatment options: sclerotherapy and Icon™ laser therapy.

Good Candidates for Vein Removal

Ideal vein removal candidates are bothered by the appearance of spider, reticular, or varicose veins, most commonly found on the legs. Additionally, they may be experiencing discomfort, aching, or heaviness in these areas.

You must be in good overall health and have realistic expectations before seeking treatment. Those with certain medical conditions, such as blood clotting disorders, may not be the right fit. Dr. Awada will evaluate your specific situation during your consultation.

What Happens During Sclerotherapy or Icon™ Laser Therapy?

During sclerotherapy, Dr. Awada injects a specialized solution directly into the affected veins. The solution irritates the lining of the blood vessels, causing them to collapse and eventually fade from view. The procedure is relatively quick and minimally uncomfortable.

Laser vein treatment with the Icon™ system offers a non-surgical solution for removing spider and reticular leg veins in less than 30 minutes. Before treatment, Dr. Awada applies a cooling gel to the affected area. She then uses the handpiece to deliver light energy into the skin, which is absorbed by the blood within the targeted veins while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. This energy heats the vein, affecting the vessel lining and causing it to constrict and eventually fade.

The Recovery Process

Recovery from both non-surgical vein removal procedures is typically quick. After sclerotherapy, you may experience mild bruising or swelling that subsides within a few days. Following laser vein treatment, the treated vessels may show immediate graying or color changes, usually fading within 10-14 days.

Frequently Asked Questions about Vein Removal

Don’t I need these veins?

While they are visible blood vessels, these veins are inefficient at circulating blood and often represent dysfunctional vessels that have lost their purpose in healthy circulation. The treatments target only these problematic surface veins while your body naturally redirects blood flow through healthier, deeper veins, ensuring proper circulation.

Are the results permanent?

The effects of vein removal therapy are meant to be long-lasting. However, they are not designed to stop new varicose, reticular, or spider veins from forming in the future.
