Reticular Vein Treatment for Livingston, AL Patients
Livingston, AL patients looking for reticular vein treatment don't have to travel far. The Vein Institute's Meridian office serves Livingston and the surrounding area, offering the same board-certified vein care available at all three of our South Mississippi locations.
What Is Reticular Veins?
Treatment for the small- to medium-sized feeder veins beneath the skin that often contribute to visible spider veins.
Reticular veins are the small- to medium-sized bluish veins that sit just beneath the skin and often feed into surface spider veins. The Vein Institute treats reticular veins the way it treats spider veins and small varicose veins — most often with sclerotherapy — so the underlying feeder vein is addressed rather than just the spider veins on the surface.
Read more on our main Reticular Veins page.
Who This Helps
Livingston patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about reticular veins:
- Bluish or greenish veins visible beneath the skin, larger than typical spider veins
- Spider veins that keep returning in the same area
- Mild aching near the affected vein
How It Works & Recovery
Plan for a consultation focused on you: your provider will ask about your symptoms, review your history, and often recommend an in-office ultrasound to map the affected veins. From there, you'll discuss which treatment options make sense for your situation.
As with sclerotherapy for spider veins, there is little to no downtime, and most patients wear compression garments for a period after treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
If an underlying reticular (feeder) vein isn't treated, the spider veins it feeds can keep reappearing, which is why addressing the feeder vein matters.
Reticular veins are most often treated with sclerotherapy, the same approach used for spider veins and small varicose veins.
