Sclerotherapy for Spider Veins in Colorado Springs, CO
Smooth, Clear, Confident Legs Start Here.
Spider veins—those fine red, blue, or purple vessels visible on the surface of the skin—affect millions of men and women. While harmless, they can cause cosmetic concern, leg fatigue, or a feeling of heaviness. At Aria Dermatology & Aesthetics in Colorado Springs, Dr. Victoria Moss, MD, FAAD offers sclerotherapy, the gold-standard treatment for eliminating unwanted spider veins safely, effectively, and beautifully.
Sclerotherapy is ideal for patients who want clearer, more confident legs without surgery or significant downtime. Whether veins developed over time, after pregnancy, or with prolonged standing, treatment can noticeably improve the appearance of spider and small reticular veins. Results develop gradually, creating a result that fits seamlessly into an active lifestyle. Most patients return to normal activities quickly, making sclerotherapy an easy addition to a busy schedule.
What Is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure in which a specialized solution is injected into visible spider veins. This solution causes the vein walls to collapse and seal shut. Over the following weeks, the treated veins are naturally absorbed by the body, restoring a clearer, more even appearance.
What Sclerotherapy Treats
Spider veins on the thighs, calves, and ankles
