Introduction

At the Vein Center of Arizona, we understand the importance of healthy and beautiful legs. Our expert team of doctors specializes in vascular medicine, providing exceptional care and effective treatment options for spider veins.

Understanding Spider Veins

Spider veins, also known as telangiectasias, are small, dilated blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin. They often develop on the legs, resembling spider webs or tree branches.

Causes of Spider Veins

Spider veins can be caused by various factors, including:

• Heredity: Genetics plays a significant role in the development of spider veins. If your parents or close relatives have experienced this condition, you are more likely to develop it as well.
• Hormonal Changes: Hormonal fluctuations during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause can contribute to the formation of spider veins.
• Prolonged Standing or Sitting: Jobs or activities that involve long periods of standing or sitting can increase the risk of spider veins.
• Obesity: Excess weight can put additional pressure on your veins, leading to the development of spider veins.
• Age: As we age, our veins naturally lose elasticity, making them more prone to becoming visible.

Treatment Options

Sclerotherapy: The Gold Standard

Sclerotherapy is widely regarded as the gold standard for treating spider veins. It involves injecting a specialized solution directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse, shrink, and gradually fade away. Our experienced doctors at the Vein Center of Arizona are skilled in performing sclerotherapy with precision and care, ensuring optimal results.

How Sclerotherapy Works

During the procedure, a thin needle is used to deliver the sclerosing solution directly into the targeted spider veins. The solution irritates the lining of the veins, causing them to stick together and eventually close off. Over time, the treated veins get reabsorbed by the body, becoming less visible or completely disappearing.

Advanced Laser Therapy

In addition to sclerotherapy, we also offer advanced laser therapy as an effective treatment option for spider veins. Laser therapy uses specialized light energy to target and destroy the affected blood vessels without causing harm to the surrounding area.

Benefits of Laser Therapy

Laser therapy provides several benefits, including:

• Precision Treatment: Laser energy can be precisely targeted, ensuring focused treatment on the spider veins.
• No Downtime: The procedure is minimally invasive and requires little to no downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities shortly after treatment.
• Safe and Effective: Laser therapy is a safe and highly effective method for treating spider veins, with minimal risk of complications.
