Do you have small red, purple, or blue veins visible on your cheeks, nose, or legs? You’re not alone. These tiny but stubborn vessels—known as spider veins—can make many patients feel self-conscious. Fortunately, at Mountcastle Medical Spa & Laser Center in Ashburn, VA, we offer a highly effective, non-invasive solution: VeinGogh.
What Are Spider Veins?
Spider veins (also called telangiectasias) are small, dilated blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin. They often form in a web-like or branching pattern and are common on:
- The face (especially around the nose and cheeks)
- The legs, particularly thighs, calves, and ankles
Common Causes
Genetics
- Genetics
- Sun Exposure
- Hormonal Changes
- Pregnancy
- Prolonged standing or sitting
- Certain medications or lifestyle factors
While spider veins are not typically a medical concern, they can cause cosmetic frustration—especially when makeup or skincare products can’t cover them.
How VeinGogh Works
VeinGogh is an advanced treatment that uses microburst technology, also known as Ohmic Thermolysis. It delivers tiny, controlled bursts of high-frequency energy through a hair-thin probe directly into the vessel. This energy gently heats the vein, causing it to collapse and close—without damaging the surrounding skin.
Key Benefits
- Safe for all skin types
- Minimal discomfort
- No anesthesia or downtime
- Immediate cosmetic improvement
- Treats fine spider veins too small for laser or sclerotherapy
Patients can often resume normal activities right after treatment.
VeinGogh vs. Sclerotherapy
| Feature | VeinGogh | Sclerotherapy |
| Best For | Fine facial & small leg veins | Larger leg Veins |
| Method | Thermal microburst | Injectable medication |
| Downtime | None | Mild bruising/swelling |
| Results | Immediate & progressive | Gradual (2-4 weeks) |
In many cases, the best results come from a combination approach—using VeinGogh for the tiny veins and sclerotherapy for the larger ones.
