What are Spider Veins?

Varicose and spider veins are very common problems. Red and blue networks can become unsightly as early as the teen years. Ropey, bulging varicose veins typically develop after childbirth or with age.

CAUSES

Factors such as hormones, pregnancy, heredity, and standing contribute to the development of these veins.

SYMPTOMS

Many people may have symptoms such as aching, pain, and swelling.

Treatments for Spider Veins

Fortunately, treatment is available, and usually can be noninvasive. Unwanted veins may be treated using six methods: sclerotherapy, minimally-invasive surgery, radiofrequency vein shrinkage, endovenous laser therapy, laser, and intense pulsed light.
