What are spider veins?
Spider veins are small dilated blood vessels that are visible on the skin. They can look different, for example, like thin red or bluish lines and branching patterns, or small star-like clusters spreading from a central point. Most often, spider veins appear on the legs, thighs, shins, and ankles, and sometimes on the face. Although these changes do not always pose a serious medical risk, they may indicate circulatory issues or early signs of varicose veins.
Many people wonder what causes spider veins. There are many possible causes, and they often occur together. The main factors include:
- Genetic predisposition. If close relatives have problems with blood vessels or varicose veins, the risk of developing spider veins increases significantly.
- Hormonal changes. Spider veins often appear during pregnancy, while taking hormonal medications, or during menopause, because hormonal fluctuations affect the elasticity of vessel walls.
- Sedentary lifestyle. Long periods of sitting or standing can reduce circulation in the lower legs, which puts extra strain on small vessels.
- Heavy physical activity. People who regularly lift heavy objects may develop visible veins due to strain on the vessels.
- Circulatory problems. Poor vein function can lead to blood pooling, causing capillaries to expand.
Other contributing factors may include excess weight, wearing tight clothing, frequent visits to saunas or tanning beds, and skin injuries.
How to get rid of spider veins?
The most gentle way to remove spider veins in Tucson, AZ, is sclerotherapy – a modern minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting a special medication (sclerosant) directly into the affected vessel. This medication causes the walls of the vessel to stick together. After that, blood no longer flows through it, and the vessel gradually disappears. One of the main advantages of sclerotherapy is its precision – the doctor treats only the affected vessels without damaging surrounding tissue.
As a result:
- spider veins become less noticeable;
- the appearance of the skin improves;
- circulation in nearby healthy vessels improves.
Over time, the treated vein is naturally absorbed by the body, and healthy tissue forms in its place.
How is spider vein treatment performed at Renewed Medical Health and Beauty?
At our Med Spa, non-surgical spider vein treatment is performed by a certified specialist. The procedure is done in several steps:
- Consultation and evaluation. The specialist assesses the condition of your veins, the location of spider veins, possible causes, and any contraindications. Additional vascular evaluation may be recommended if needed.
- Preparation. The skin is cleaned and treated with an antiseptic.
- Injection. Using a very fine sterile needle, the specialist injects the sclerosant into the affected vessel. The injections are precise and generally comfortable.
- Completion. A compression bandage or special stockings are applied to the treated area, and the patient receives detailed aftercare instructions.
The procedure usually takes about 20–40 minutes, depending on the number of veins treated.
