NYC residents who are dealing with spider veins do not always know what treatments are available to help with this common condition. If you are ready to look into your spider vein treatment options, you will need some good information to get you started.
A Closer Look at Spider Veins
Veins are blood vessels responsible for transporting blood back to your heart. They contain one-way valves that ensure that blood only flows in one direction: to your heart. For reasons that are not always known, these one-way valves can become dysfunctional. This means that blood can begin pooling in them, leading to their characteristic distorted appearance.
Varicose veins are large, ropey blood vessels that tend to be blue or green. Spider veins are a type of varicose vein that tends to be quite smaller, presenting with a branched or web-like appearance. Spider veins also tend to be blue or purple and can develop on the face or legs.
Downsides of Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a spider vein treatment that has been around for a while. It involves the injection of a chemical solution into the spider vein, causing its collapse. A compression garment will probably be required after your treatment to prevent the backflow of blood into the treated spider vein. Plus, the treatment is minimally-invasive, so it’s a bit more involved than some people would like.
CoolGlide to the Rescue
CoolGlide is a more modern spider vein treatment technique that involves the use of state-of-the-art, non-invasive technology. As with sclerotherapy, the treated vein will be absorbed by your body. The blood that was once transported through the spider vein will be taken up by neighboring blood vessels that are functioning correctly.

Survey

Category: reveiwsI have been a patient of Dr.Jacobs for over 20 years,,Over that time period he has discovered, treated, and has removed several skin cancers from me. I can clearly state that if it weren’t for him I probably would not be alive today..His staff has always been the most professional and his clinical environment is always immaculate. I would recommend anyone with dermatological issues from psoriasis to melanoma to consult with Dr. Michael Jacobs.

Category: reveiwsI had the best experience with Dr. Jacobs. Went to see two doctors who misdiagnosed a rash I had on my ankle. Dr. Jacobs identified it within seconds, prescribed a medication and it started to clear up two days later. The staff is wonderful and I would go back anytime.
Satisfied Patient
by Michel Orban
Category: reveiwsFor over 30 years, Dr. Jacobs has treated me. He is cordial, friendly and listens. Most recently, I had a severe case of bedbug bites that I got in Portugal. Literally within minutes of texting him with photos, he corrected the diagnosis I'd been given at a local hospital clinic and told me the medicines I needed. While I saw two doctors in Europe, it was Dr. Jacobs who helped me control my anxiety. For over three weeks, he communicated frequently with me - reconfirming what I was doing was correct and reassuring me the bites would get better, Dr. Jacobs is my go to! He is thoughtful, direct and clear in conveying his diagnosis. I am grateful to him for his care and appreciate all he has done for me over the years.

Category: reveiwsI have been a patient of Dr. Jacob's for over a year and although I went for one procedure, I kept coming due to their outstanding and attentive service. Their facility is very clean and the staff is very professional. Their equipment is top of the line. I've had hair removal and lasers done that was totally painless. I highly recommend this facility.
Too Modest to Publicize Himself

Category: reveiwsThe wonderful work the Doctor did restoring a freshness to my face and neck was enough to convince 5 women pictured in The Social Register to make appointments of their own. Whether socially, for a polished image at work, or for health and wellness to take personal care seriously, this is the doctor to visit. NOT one who sells her services on TV talk shows. This office is not a Botox factory assembly line. When comparing notes, we women agreed that each was treated uniquely as specialized treatments were matched with care and a sure sense of what would be pleasing and successful with each patient. May I note as well that there are quite a number of men in the office seeking treatment as well!. This is a board certified physician who teaches his skills at Cornell. It goes without saying that his professional demeanor causes a patient to trust his judgement.
