Hand Veins
As you get older, your skin thins and loses some elasticity. You might also experience blood pressure changes. These fluctuations in blood pressure can push veins toward the surface of the skin. If your skin has already grown thin, these veins can be quite noticeable.

What Are My Treatment Options For Hand Veins?
Hand Veins Treatment
Many people develop more prominent hand veins as they age. These veins are often embarrassing, but we can help. The practice offers sclerotherapy, a simple in-office procedure to shrink unsightly veins. Sclerotherapy is nonsurgical, safe, and generally pain-free. Vein Institute also delivers a variety of other cosmetic treatments, including filler injections. Let the expert providers help you achieve smooth, youthful-looking skin.
What is Sclerotherapy?
During sclerotherapy, your provider injects a special solution into the affected vein, causing it to scar and shrink. As the vein shrinks, it’s gradually reabsorbed by your body, and blood flow naturally reroutes to healthier veins.
Sclerotherapy takes place right in the office, and the procedure is generally pain-free. After your injection, you might experience minor bruising, but these side effects usually pass quickly. However, it may take up to a month for the veins to fade completely.
Vein Institute offers sclerotherapy for your hands, face, and legs. If you have several areas that need treatment, your provider helps you develop a multi-stage treatment plan.
