If they're not too big, it can be a simple fix of having them injected with saline solution at the dermatologist office. I had it done and it worked well.

I have had both the saline and laser treatments for my spider veins (which are party hereditary--so I will likely continue to get them). A couple of times insurance paid for it but usually not. Like Sandy L. said, a vascular specialist is the person to see.

There are laser treatments and also injections. They can work. Just need the Dr. to know what they are doing.

I have spider veins and varicose veins. The varicose veins were very painful so I went to a vascular surgen and had endovenous ablation. My legs feel so much better. The spider veins have decreased a bit but it'll require sclerotherapy to get rid of them.
