What is Spider vein treatment ? It is often assumed that Spider veins are synonymous with varicose veins. However, there is a difference between the two. Spider veins are red, blue and purple in color. They appear mostly on face, calf, thighs, ankle and in very few cases on chest and neck. They begin as tiny capillaries and appear as blue or red squiggles and sometimes even as starburst clusters or spider webs. Spider veins are actually capillaries or thin blood vessels directly connected to larger venous system. Like varicose veins, spider veins are also caused due to venous reflux. Spider veins may be associated with large “feeder� underlying varicose veins or may be isolated. Spider veins cannot be felt, but merely seen on the skin’s surface.

FAQs about Spider Vein Can spider veins be dangerous? Similar to varicose veins, spider veins appear when the valves in the leg break. However, spider veins look very different from varicose veins and are much smaller in size. Moreover, varicose veins could also cause severe health conditions including, skin ulcers, blood clots, vein thrombosis (DVT). Spider veins, on the other hand, are not dangerous and are caused mainly due to venous insufficiency. Is the spider vein treatment permanent?
Karishma Vein Clinic we adopt sclerotherapy to get rid of spider veins effectively. The procedure is highly safe, painless, and a minimally invasive. In this technique, a sterile solution is injected in the veins which cause the spider veins to shrink. After the vein is closed down, the blood flow is redirected and spider veins disappear.
