Remove spider veins with laser

At JUVENIS,suitableSuitable spider veins are sealed at JUVENIS using modern laser therapy by Prof. Dr. Tamara Kopp with assistance. The Nd:YAG laser emits infrared heat energy into the vessel walls and the blood. This causes the vessel walls to heat up and contract. Result: the red lines lighten and continue to fade for weeks after the treatment — without the skin being touched by a scalpel.

  • The barely noticeable removal of spider veins at JUVENIS takes approx. 30 minutes.

  • You can go home immediately after the laser treatment of the spider veins.

Remove reticular varicose veins & tributary varicosities and sclerose spider veins (foam sclerotherapy)

Sclerotherapy or foam sclerotherapy is the ideal treatment for slightly larger spider veins, reticular varicose veins and tributary varicosities. To proceed with precision, the varicose veins are made visible with a magnifying loupe during sclerotherapy. The sclerosing agent is then introduced. In the sclerotherapy of varicose veins or spider veins an alcohol-like agent is injected into the veins to be treated, which triggers an inflammatory reaction in the vessel walls, causing them to stick together and dissolve over time and become invisible.

  • The barely noticeable foam sclerotherapy of spider veins or varicose veins lasts approx. 1 hour.

  • You can go home immediately after the treatment.

  • We recommend 48 hours of compression after the procedure.

FAQs

Spider veins are fine, superficial, dilated veins that usually appear reddish or bluish through the skin. They occur mainly on the legs and are generally harmless, but can be perceived as cosmetically bothersome.

Common causes include a genetic predisposition, connective tissue weakness, hormonal influences (e.g., pregnancy or the pill), prolonged standing or sitting, and increasing age. UV radiation can also weaken the vessels.

Depending on the severity, JUVENIS uses modern procedures such as:

  • Vascular laser treatment

  • Sclerotherapy (vein ablation)
    are employed. Both methods aim to selectively close the affected vessels so that they are reabsorbed by the body.

In sclerotherapy, a special medication is injected directly into the affected vein. This causes the vessel to close and be gradually absorbed by the body. The skin then appears more even.

The treatment is well tolerated. A brief burning sensation or slight tugging may occur during the injection or laser application. Anesthesia is usually not necessary.

Depending on the number and extent of the spider veins, usually 1–3 sessions necessary. Very fine or stubborn vessels may require further treatments.

Initial improvements are often visible after just a few weeks. The final result becomes apparent once the body has completely broken down the treated vessels.

After sclerotherapy we recommend wearing compression stockings for a few days. Intense sun, saunas and heavy physical exertion should be avoided temporarily. Your doctor will give you precise instructions.

Treated vessels disappear permanently. However, new spider veins may develop over time, especially in people with a predisposition.

Temporary mild redness, small bruises or hardening may occur. Serious complications are rare when the treatment is performed properly.

The costs depend on the size of the area and the chosen method:

  • Initial consultation for spider veins from € 290

  • Spider vein removal with laser from € 390

  • Spider vein removal by foam sclerotherapy from € 1330


During the consultation you will receive an individualized cost plan.

Since this is usually a cosmetic treatment, the costs are generally not covered by health insurance. You will receive an invoice for private submission.

At JUVENIS you will be cared for by experienced physicians (female and male) specializing in vascular treatments covered. We use modern laser and sclerotherapy techniques and develop an individually tailored treatment concept. The goal is a even, natural skin appearance – safe, gentle and to the highest medical standards.
