At Harley Street Medics in London, we offer advanced treatments to reduce the appearance of spider veins safely and effectively, restoring smoother, clearer skin with minimal downtime.
Spider veins are small, visible blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin. Often red, blue, or purple in colour, they commonly appear on the legs, thighs, or face and may resemble a web-like pattern. Although they are usually harmless, many people seek treatment for spider veins due to their appearance or associated discomfort, such as mild aching or itching.
Each treatment is customised to your skin type, vein location, and overall vascular health. Our London-based specialists ensure that your treatment is not only effective but also comfortable, with minimal downtime and long-lasting results.
If you’re looking for a reliable solution to unwanted spider veins in London, our expert-led care can help you achieve smoother, more confident skin.
At Harley Street Medics in London, your spider vein treatment begins with a thorough consultation to assess the severity, location, and cause of the visible veins. Based on this assessment, your practitioner will recommend the most suitable treatment—typically either sclerotherapy or laser therapy.
For sclerotherapy, a fine needle is used to inject a specialised solution directly into the affected vein, causing it to collapse and eventually be absorbed by the body. For smaller or more delicate veins, especially on the face or legs, laser treatment may be preferred. This method uses focused light to gently heat and close off the vein without breaking the skin.
Both procedures are minimally invasive and usually take 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the number of veins being treated. Discomfort is mild and temporary, often described as a small pinch or warming sensation.
Following treatment, compression garments may be recommended for the legs to promote circulation and healing. Our team in London provides clear aftercare instructions and supports you every step of the way for the best possible outcome.
Following spider vein treatment at Harley Street Medics in London, most patients begin to see visible improvement within a few weeks. Veins treated with sclerotherapy typically fade gradually as the body absorbs them, while laser-treated veins may darken initially before lightening and disappearing over time.
Recovery is usually quick and straightforward. Mild redness, swelling, or slight bruising may occur around the treated area but tends to resolve within a few days. Compression stockings may be recommended for leg treatments to aid healing and improve circulation.
You’ll be advised to avoid strenuous exercise, heat exposure (like hot baths), and prolonged sun exposure for a few days post-treatment. Walking and gentle movement are encouraged to maintain blood flow and support the healing process.
Our London clinic ensures a safe, comfortable experience with long-lasting results, helping you feel more confident in your skin.

Over-the-counter removal pens often offer minimal results and are not a substitute for professional treatment. Clinical options like sclerotherapy or laser therapy are more effective and safe.
Results typically last several years, but new veins can develop over time. Maintenance sessions may be needed depending on your lifestyle and genetics.
Pain may result from inflammation or pressure in the vein. If a spider vein becomes painful, it’s important to consult a specialist for evaluation.
Apply gentle pressure with a clean cloth. If bleeding persists or the vein looks damaged, seek medical attention promptly.
Cutting a spider vein can cause prolonged bleeding or bruising. It’s best to avoid interfering and consult a clinic for proper removal.
Avoid hot baths, direct sun exposure, vigorous exercise, or tight clothing for a few days to support healing and avoid complications.
Most patients report only mild discomfort. Techniques like cooling and numbing creams are used to keep the procedure comfortable.
Treated veins usually don't return, but new ones may develop. Wearing compression stockings and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help prevent recurrence.
Sclerotherapy is typically the most effective treatment for leg veins, though laser therapy may also be suitable depending on the vein size and skin type.
