Spider Veins

Embarrassing Spider Veins? Stop Hiding and Start Living!

Spider veins, or telangiectasia, are small, threadlike discolored veins that are most often seen on the surface of the skin. These troublesome veins frequently occur in the legs and appear as varying shades of blue, purple or red.

It’s estimated that at least one-third of the adult female population is troubled with this common problem, though men can develop the issue as well. Factors such as heredity, pregnancy, hormones, weight gain, and trauma can contribute to the development of these veins. Individuals with occupations requiring prolonged sitting or standing are also at an increased risk for obtaining spider veins. Many people often seek treatment for spider veins due to cosmetic concern. However, spider veins can also cause discomforts such as aching, heaviness, itching and night cramps.

Results may vary.
