Spider veins are like varicose veins but smaller. They begin as tiny capillaries and appear as blue or red squiggles. They are small red, blue or purple veins that often appear on the surface of the thighs, calves and ankles.
It's estimated that at least one third of the adult female population is troubled with thread veins on the legs. People often seek treatment for spider veins because of cosmetic concern, not being able to wear short skirts or shorts in the warm months.
These veins are more distinct in fair skinned people, and more common in females. The thread veins may appear from nowhere and they have no symptoms.
Lasers are used to treat spider veins. During laser treatment intense light is directed to the veins, eliminating them permanently. Lasers are especially suited to treat small spider veins, sessions can take 15 to 30 mins and may only need one or two sessions.
