You mean sclerotherapy? It never helped me either. This article states that IPL won't help in lower extremities:

So, self-tanner is my best defense.

Spider veins on the nose is common. Or injury may occur due to the sun, such as a car accident or some other traumatic experience. They show that on or around your nose, small red blur. They can be awkward because of the location, but the good news is that there are ways to gently remove the nose vein.

You should try schlerotherapy, it's really good and takes no surgery. I've seen a great article about it on the Novasans blog.

tried the schleraphy shots...or salt solution...
did not work...extremely painful to boot...
heard they had something out new but
wanted to see if anyone has tried it...a new
laser or instrument that microwaves the vein....
