Can arm spider veins be treated?

Hi Rational444,
Spider veins and telangiectases can be treated with lasers and sclerotherapy. All the areas you mentioned can be treated. I recommend to set up an appointment with your local board certified dermatologist so they can see the veins physically and tailor a treatment best suited for your goals. Best of luck!

For varicose veins, we typically recommend a safe, minimally invasive procedure called Sclerotherapy. A salt solution is injected directly into each vein, causing them to collapse and ultimately disappear. For long-term improvement, we often complement Sclerotherapy with IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) photofacial and the Excel V laser, which treats both superficial and deep vascular conditions on all skin types. I suggest seeing an expert for a formal evaluation to determine if this is the best solution for you. Best, Dr. Emer

The gold standard for spider vein treatment is sclerotherapy.  All of the areas that you describe can be treated by sclerotherapy.

Yes!  Truncal veins respond very well to sclerotherapy and are actually easier to treat because they have less pressure than leg veins do. For the face and for very fine telangectasias I prefer ohmic thermolysis such as VeinGogh but if they are big enough to inject sclerotherapy is the treatment of choice for spider veins regardless of location.

Veins of the trunk, arms and the back of hands can be treated with laser and Sclerotherapy. These treatments give the best results.
