Leg Vein Treatment in NYC
Tired of covering up your legs because of visible veins? Whether it’s varicose veins that ache or spider veins that you just don’t love the look of, you’re not alone — and you’re not stuck with them. At Palisades Vein Center, we offer minimally invasive leg vein treatment in New York to help you feel confident in your skin again.
Why Are Leg Veins So Common?
Leg veins are one of the most common vein concerns — especially for women. Why?
- Gravity and blood flow: Your leg veins work hardest to push blood back up to your heart.
- Genetics: If your parents had varicose or spider veins, you’re more likely to get them too.
- Hormonal changes: Pregnancy, birth control, and menopause can all affect vein health.
- Standing or sitting for long periods: Common in certain jobs or lifestyles.
The good news? You don’t have to live with them — and treatment is easier than ever.
Types of Leg Veins We Treat
Not all leg veins are the same — here’s a quick breakdown:
- Spider Veins: Small, web-like veins that are red, blue, or purple and sit near the skin’s surface. Mostly cosmetic.
- Varicose Veins: Larger, bulging veins that may cause heaviness, pain, or swelling. Often medical.
- Reticular Veins: Medium-sized veins beneath the skin that can feed into spider veins.
Our team will assess the type, size, and location of your veins and tailor a treatment plan just for you.

Leg Vein Treatment Options
Sclerotherapy
A popular option for spider veins and small reticular veins. A safe solution is injected directly into the vein, causing it to collapse and fade over time.
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
For larger varicose veins, RFA uses heat energy to close off the damaged vein — all through a tiny catheter. It’s a quick, outpatient procedure with minimal downtime.
Laser Vein Therapy
Non-invasive laser energy targets small, visible veins without injections. Great for surface spider veins, especially for patients who want a needle-free option.
What to Expect: Recovery & Results
- Mild swelling or bruising for a few days
- Wearing compression stockings for 1–2 weeks (especially after RFA)
- Return to walking and light activity the same day
- Results that appear gradually over 2–8 weeks, depending on treatment type
We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions and check in with you to make sure your healing and results are on track.
Before & After Results: Real Patients, Real Confidence
FAQs: Leg Vein Treatment in NYC
Most patients describe a mild stinging or warming sensation, but it’s very manageable. We’ll walk you through everything beforehand.
Treated veins won’t return, but new ones can form over time — especially if you’re prone to them. Maintenance treatments are available if needed.
There’s little to no downtime. Most people go back to work the same or next day. Compression stockings help with healing and comfort.
Spider veins are usually considered cosmetic, but varicose vein treatment may be covered if it’s medically necessary. We’ll help verify your benefits during your consult.
That depends on the number and size of veins being treated. Some people need just one, others may need a series for full clearance.
