I have awful protruding veins. Is it dangerous to have the veins removed like varicose veins?
Answer: Sclerotherapy for Varicose Veins / Spider Veins on Legs/Thighs -- combine with Intense Pulsed Light photofacial (IPL), Excel V Thank you for your questionFor 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

Answer: Hand Vein Treatment Hand Vein Treatment is a common component of my practice. The procedure is very safe and done in the office under local anesthesia or with oral sedation if requested. Each hand takes about 45 minutes and I use endovenous laser for the larger veins and sclerotherapy for the smaller veins. The only drawback to the procedure is that more than one treatment may be required (never repeat laser but possibly additional sclerotherapy). My website, vanishvein.com has many before and after pictures.

Answer: Hand veins Those veins are not "dangerous". It is a cosmetic complaint. They can be removed by actually minimal incisions or can be treated with sclerotherapy.
