What are your options to get rid of or diminish Spider Veins?
There are several self help creams and supplements containing Horse Chestnut that may help to dissipate these veins athat have been used for centuries.
In addition there are other topical creams that have proven clinical data supporting the reduction in Spider Veins- check out beflattered.com LOVES. But the only real way to get rid of them for good is with professional help using a more intensive treatment
If this is for you then you may wish to make a choice between Micro-sclerotherapy, Laser treatment or Thermocoagulation. These treatments are available through reputable clinics. Should you choose this route you must ensure that you check out the credentials and that they are registered and licensed with up to date accreditation.
Micro-sclerotherapy is a treatment which involves injecting a chemical directly into the veins with small needles. This results in the veins sticking together. After about three weeks the veins will naturally disperse, but you may find that you will need a course of treatments. After about three weeks the veins will naturally disperse, but you may find that you need more than one treatment. Of course, as with any procedure, there are possible side effects particularly if the therapist misses the vein, resulting in a skin reaction. Also bear in mind that the results can vary greatly from person to person. There is also no guarantee that a dispersed vein won't come back to haunt you again at a later date, especially if you forget to protect the area.
Thermocoagualtion is an alternative treatment that is claimed to be pain free and less damaging to the skin. It involves the use of microwave technology that penetrates tissues to help eradicate spider veins under the skin and underlying skin redness.
Laser treatment can be effective on thread veins, particularly on the face, but again there could be side effects. Also this treatment cannot be used on dark skin. You may notice the texture of your skin changing and may be left with scars.
As in all cosmetic treatments on the face you should stay out of the sun following treatment.
