Die beste Dermatologin in Düsseldorf :-)
Auch gut finde ich, dass man den Gutschein sowohl in der Dermatologie & Laser Center als auch in ihrem Kosmetikinstitut einlösen kann. So kann man sich auch spontan entscheiden und muss sich nicht vorher festlegen.
Ich fühle mich bei Skinthetics in BESTEN Händen! Unglaublich Seriös! Der Wartebereich ist unglaublich stilvoll von Frau Doktor Kröpfl eingerichtet worden. Sobald man in den Behandlungsraum geführt wird ist alles absolut klinisch, sauber und ordentlich eingerichtet! Danke dass es Euch gibt!
Freue mich schon auf den nächsten Termin bei Euch!
Frau Dr. Kröpfl ist eine Offenbarung für mich. Jahrelang habe ich als Erwachsener mit unreiner Haut und Ekzemen gequält, die ich alleine oder mit Hilfe meiner ‘normalen’ Hautärzte nicht in den Griff bekommen habe. Die Behandlungen sind vielleicht kostspielig, aber in jedem Fall ihr Geld wert. Ich fühle mich absolut kompetent beraten und sehr wohl in dieser Praxis.
Man fühlt sich in den Besten Händen, Top Beratung und tolle Ergebnisse inklusive. Die ehrliche Meinung von Frau Dr. Kröpfl weiß ich sehr zu schätzen, da sie mir auch schon von einer Beratung klar abgeraten hat.
Sehr freundliches und kompetentes Team, super schöne Praxis, toller Service und eine angenehme und vorsichtige Behandlung!
Mir wurde mit einer Narbenbehandlung durch Microneedling + PRP super geholfen!! Nur weiterzuempfehlen, danke! 😊
Ich war bisher nur zu einem Beratungsgespräch bei Frau Dr. Kröpfl. Ich bin sehr angetan von der Kompetenz, Transparenz und Klarheit.
Es werden keine unrealistischen Ergebnisse angepriesen und klare Informationen vermittelt.
Dankeschön.
Important information about spider vein removal through sclerotherapy in Düsseldorf
What are Spider veins?
Spider veins are dilated, superficial veins in the skin that appear as fine, usually bluish-red lines. They occur when small blood vessels permanently dilate and shine through the skin. The name derives from their characteristic shape, which resembles the fine branches of a broom.
These vascular changes occur mainly on the legs and affect women more often than men. While spider veins are usually medically harmless, many people find them unsightly. Our expert Dr. Lucija Grittern explains that spider veins can take various forms – from fine, net-like structures to more clearly visible, branched capillaries.
How does sclerotherapy work?
Sclerotherapy is a proven method for treating spider veins. In this minimally invasive treatment, our specialist injects a special sclerosing agent directly into the affected vessels. The sclerosing agent causes a controlled inflammatory reaction in the vessel wall, causing it to stick together and close.
In the following weeks, the body naturally breaks down the obliterated vessel, and the Spider veins gradually disappear. Blood flow is diverted via healthy, deeper veins. This method is considered particularly gentle and is performed as an outpatient in our practice.
Our modern equipment enables us to perform the treatment precisely and effectively. Sclerotherapy does not require general anesthesia and is generally considered to be painless.
What causes Spider veins?
There are various causes for the development of spider veins. Genetic predisposition often plays a decisive role—if family members are affected, your own risk increases significantly. Hormonal changes, especially during pregnancy or menopause, also promote the development of these vascular changes.
Other factors include prolonged standing or sitting at work, obesity, and increasing age. Intensive sun exposure can also promote the development of spider veins. Dr. Lucija Grittern explains to her patients that weak connective tissue is often the basis for dilated vessels.
Can Spider veins be prevented?
Although Spider veins cannot be completely prevented, you can reduce the risk by taking specific measures. Regular exercise promotes blood circulation and strengthens the leg muscles. Contrast showers and compression stockings for prolonged standing also support vein function.
A healthy body weight relieves pressure on the legs, while adequate fluid intake improves blood flow. Our team will be happy to advise you on further preventive measures and give you individual recommendations for your everyday life.

How does spider vein sclerotherapy work in Düsseldorf?
Preparation for treatment
Before the actual sclerotherapy of Spider veins, we conduct a detailed consultation at our Skinthetics practice. Dr. Lucija Grittern thoroughly examines your legs and discusses your expectations and possible treatment alternatives with you. A detailed medical history helps us to rule out any contraindications.
We will provide you with comprehensive information about the sclerotherapy procedure, possible side effects, and the expected result. For optimal treatment results, you should refrain from taking blood-thinning medication before your appointment and inform us of all medications you are taking. Our expert will also explain why you should wear comfortable clothing on the day of treatment and refrain from intense sunbathing.
In our first-class environment, we take plenty of time to answer your questions and ensure that you feel fully informed and confident.
Performing the treatment
The actual Spider vein sclerotherapy takes place in a relaxed atmosphere. You lie comfortably on our modern treatment couch while Dr. Lucija Grittern carefully disinfects the areas to be treated. Using a very fine needle, our specialist injects the sclerosing agent precisely into the affected Spider veins.
Depending on the extent of the spider veins, several small injections may be necessary. Most patients find the treatment well tolerated—many report only a slight burning or stinging sensation that quickly subsides. Our experienced team will ensure that you feel comfortable throughout the entire treatment.
After the injection, our expert gently massages the treated areas to ensure even distribution of the sclerosing agent. The entire procedure usually takes between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the number and size of the spider veins to be treated.
Aftercare
In the first few days after the removal of Spider veins, you should refrain from intensive sporting activities. However, light exercise such as walking is recommended and supports blood circulation. You should initially avoid saunas, hot baths, and direct sunlight.
Our team will arrange a follow-up appointment with you to assess the healing process and plan further treatment steps if necessary. Dr. Lucija Grittern is available to answer your questions throughout the entire aftercare phase and will give you individual recommendations for optimal healing.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about spider vein sclerotherapy at Skinthetics
Spider veins are usually medically harmless and do not cause any health problems. They are mainly a cosmetic concern. In rare cases, however, they can indicate underlying venous insufficiency, which is why it is advisable to have them examined by a specialist.
No, spider veins themselves are not dangerous. They differ from varicose veins, which can cause medical complications. Our expert Dr. Lucija Grittern will explain any possible connections with other vein problems.
The decision for treatment of spider veins is primarily aesthetic. If you feel uncomfortable about the visible capillaries or feel that they are affecting your quality of life, sclerotherapy may be a sensible option.
Initial improvements can be seen after just a few weeks. The final result of spider vein removal can be assessed after about two to three months, as the body needs time to completely break down the treated vessels.
The number of treatments required depends on the extent and severity of the spider veins. Two to three sessions at intervals of several weeks are often necessary. Dr. Lucija Grittern will create an individual treatment plan for you.
Most patients find the treatment to be relatively painless. The brief burning sensation when the fine needle is inserted subsides quickly. Many report only minor or barely noticeable pain during sclerotherapy.
Initially, avoid intense sunlight, sauna visits, and strenuous sports. Light exercise, on the other hand, is desirable and promotes the healing process.
As with any medical procedure, side effects can occur with sclerotherapy. These include temporary skin discoloration, slight swelling, or small hardening at the injection sites. These usually disappear on their own after a few weeks.
Since spider veins are usually a cosmetic problem, statutory health insurance companies do not generally cover the costs of treatment. We will be happy to advise you and provide you with a transparent cost estimate.
The cost of spider vein removal depends on the extent of the treatment and the number of sessions required. After a thorough examination, we will provide you with a detailed cost estimate. The cost starts at around €154, and we offer various treatment packages.
