Spider Veins

We understand that dealing with spider veins, also known as telangiectasias, can be challenging. These small, dilated blood vessels can cause distress as they appear like a spider web or tree branches on the skin. Their red, blue, or purple colour can be concerning, especially when they appear on visible areas such as the legs or face. However, it's important to remember that there is hope. There are treatments available that can help improve the appearance of spider veins and provide relief.

Causes of Spider Veins

• Genetics and family history
• Hormonal changes
• Prolonged standing or sitting
• Obesity or excessive weight gain
• Ageing and weakened vein valves
• Sun exposure and damage to the skin

Treatment Option:

IPL Vascular Therapy: IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Vascular Therapy is a non-invasive treatment option for spider veins. It uses high-intensity light energy to target and heat the blood vessels, causing them to collapse and fade over time. This treatment is relatively quick and may require multiple sessions depending on the severity of the spider veins. It is generally considered safe and effective, with minimal downtime and discomfort.
