Laser treatment for spider veins on legs cost

Developing spider veins is sometimes an unfortunate consequence of aging, as our blood vessels can become insufficient. Valves in the vessels can allow for pooling or backflow, and spider veins may be the result, tiny clusters of red, blue, or purple veins on the legs or face. Pure Beauty Medical Spa can help with laser vein removal.

How Does Laser Vein Removal Work?

Laser vein removal is an innovative FDA-approved treatment that is non-invasive for the treatment of spider veins, which can be caused by injury, age, or genetics. The Cutera Excel laser is the system the Pure Beauty Medical Spa team uses to effectively remove spider veins and correct venous dysfunction. The walls of the damaged blood vessels absorb the laser energy and collapse, sealing off the unhealthy flow of blood and redirecting it to deeper, healthier blood vessels. Your body absorbs the collapsed spider veins and filters them out naturally, leaving your skin smooth and spider vein free. The Excel laser is powerful enough to remove problem veins while still remaining gentle enough to be used on the delicate tissues of the face, or the sensitive skin behind the knees and on the ankles.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Excel laser energy is safe for most skin types, so nearly anyone with spider veins may have the treatment. Because vascular conditions are very personal to individual patients, a consultation with a Pure Beauty Medical Spa laser expert is a great first step.

Treatment, Downtime, and Results

The treatments are very quick, around 15 minutes start to finish. Unlike sclerotherapy or endovenous laser ablation, Excel laser vein removal requires no injections or incisions, so it’s completely non-surgical, and as such, downtime is minimal. You may experience redness or tenderness for 1-2 days, but these resolve on their own. You’re encouraged to walk right away for healthy blood flow, and you may only be required to wear compression stockings for leg treatments for a week. While most patients need an average of 6-8 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart to reach optimal goals, visible improvement begins 3-4 weeks following the initial session.

How Much Does Laser Vein Removal Cost?

Unfortunately, most insurance companies consider spider veins to be a cosmetic concern, so laser vein removal treatments are not always covered.

Are you looking to get rid of your spider veins or varicose veins? Or are you wondering what the average treatment cost for removing spider veins is? Varicose veins often appear on the feet and legs and can make patients feel uncomfortable and conscious about their legs.

Let’s take a closer look at the costs of removing your spider veins.

Cost for Vein Treatment

The treatment cost for varicose veins and spider veins depends on various factors, including the type of treatment procedure you are opting for and your location. The cost may also depend on the experience and qualification of your surgeon, the number of sessions needed based on the severity of your condition, and the location of the clinic.

The overall cost will also depend on whether you have insurance coverage and exactly what your insurance will cover.

Health Insurance Coverage

Most health insurance plans include coverage for a visit to a vein specialist. Although, some plans may require a referral from your primary care doctor. Your vein specialist will assess your condition and determine whether treatment is necessary.

For example, spider vein treatment costs may not be covered by insurance plans since the removal of spider veins is considered as a cosmetic procedure. Spider veins are typically painless and do not usually cause health concerns. Therefore, eliminating them may not be deemed a medical necessity. However, most plans do include coverage for varicose vein treatment costs. Some predominant varicose vein symptoms include:

  • Skin ulcers
  • Burning, itching, or throbbing sensation in the legs
  • Painful leg cramps
  • Changes in skin texture and color around a varicose vein
  • Itching or tingling around one or more veins
  • Heaviness on tiredness in the legs

Your insurance might not cover the full cost of all the procedures. Please discuss with your insurance company to understand what is covered and how much is covered. 

Out-of-Pocket Expenses

If you do not have health insurance coverage, you can pay out-of-pocket for treatment. Sclerotherapy is often the recommended treatment option for spider veins. The average cost for sclerotherapy ranges between $350 and $500 per session. During your consultation, your doctor will provide you with an estimate of how many sessions you will need so that you have a rough idea of your spider vein treatment cost. 

Ask if Payment Options are Available

To help you cover your expenses, some clinics might offer a payment plan. Consider discussing such plans or potential self-pay discounts with your healthcare provider. However, make sure you don’t automatically turn towards the cheapest treatment center available. Choose a board-certified vein treatment center in your area. 

If you are looking for the best spider vein or varicose vein treatment, contact our experts at the North Atlanta Vascular Clinic and Vein Center (NAVC). Our qualified surgeons will guide you with the best diagnosis and care for all your vascular conditions.

Do spider veins go away with laser?

Laser light can destroy the vein without damaging your skin. Small spider veins may disappear immediately after treatment. Larger spider veins and varicose veins will darken, and you'll likely see them for 1 to 3 months before they disappear. To get complete clearing, you may need 3 or more treatments.

Is it worth it to treat spider veins?

Though generally harmless, hair-thin blemishes, known as spider veins, can cause some to want to cover up even in the heat. Treating spider veins is rarely a medical necessity (though some seek treatment to relieve the aching the veins can cause), but for those who want it, spider vein-free skin is just a zap away.

Can I remove spider veins myself?

You'll need to see a specialist to actually treat visible veins. If you're wondering how to get rid of spider veins for good, know that Dr. Hollingsworth says those wacky home remedies won't work.

This is a one-time procedure and is priced between $600+ to $1000+ depending on the size of the treatment area.
