What Advanced “pinhole” Procedures Does Imaging & Interventional Specialists Offer for Spider Veins?

Although not an advanced “pinhole” procedure but certainly a “pinhole” procedure! Imaging and Interventional Specialists can inject special chemicals (“sclerosant”) after a small needle is carefully advanced into the spider vein. This causes the spider veins to close off and blood flows into the normal venous channels. Ultrasound is used for larger varicosities but not usually the tiny spider veins which are usually easily seen.
