What Are Spider Veins and Cherry Hemangiomas?
- Spider Veins: These are small, dilated blood vessels near the surface of the skin that often appear as red, blue, or purple lines. They can develop on the face or body and are commonly associated with aging, pregnancy, or hormonal changes.
- Cherry Hemangiomas: Also known as cherry angiomas, these are benign growths of small blood vessels that appear as bright red or purple spots on the skin. They are typically harmless but can be a cosmetic concern for many people.

Our Treatment Options
- Laser Therapy: The primary treatment for spider veins and cherry hemangiomas. Laser therapy uses focused light energy to target and destroy the blood vessels or growths without harming the surrounding skin. This method effectively reduces the appearance of veins and hemangiomas, leaving your skin clear and smooth.
- Sclerotherapy: For spider veins, sclerotherapy involves injecting a solution directly into the veins, causing them to collapse and gradually fade away. This treatment is often used for larger veins or those that do not respond well to laser therapy.
Treatment Process
- Consultation: Your journey begins with a detailed consultation where our specialist will evaluate your skin condition and discuss your treatment options. We will design a personalized plan to address your specific concerns.
- Preparation: Depending on the chosen treatment, you may need to prepare the area by cleaning the skin or applying a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort.
- Procedure: The treatment will be performed using the selected method—laser therapy, or sclerotherapy. The duration of the procedure varies based on the extent of the treatment area.
- Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, you may experience mild redness or swelling. We will provide you with aftercare instructions to help you manage any side effects and achieve the best results.
