If you have spider veins, you’re not alone. More than 50% of women have spider veins, and they become even more common with age.
While these tiny damaged and discolored veins typically don’t cause any harm, they can cause your confidence to take a hit, especially if they’re visible on the legs or face.
The good news? At Dermatology Aesthetics of Northern Kentucky, we have options for spider vein treatment in Florence that don’t require surgery. With advanced technology, we can safely diminish the appearance of spider veins, giving you more-even skin you can feel confident in.
Here’s what you need to know about your treatment options before you book.
What Are Spider Veins?
Spider veins, or broken capillaries, occur when small blood vessels near the surface of the skin become damaged. They often appear red, purple, or blue, and they usually don’t cause any harmful effects.
However, some people experience itchiness, burning, and other discomfort from spider veins.
Many factors can lead to spider veins, including:
- Genetics
- Hormone changes
- Pregnancy
- Prolonged standing
- Aging
- Sun exposure
While these thin branches or webs of veins don’t pose a medical risk, many people seek treatment to restore unblemished skin.
How We Treat Spider Veins
At Dermatology Aesthetics of Northern Kentucky, we have a few options for treating spider veins.
First, we can use BBL HEROic to address superficial spider veins on the face. This gentle treatment option improves overall radiance with minimal downtime (it can also address hyperpigmentation, signs of aging, and even unwanted hair).
For spider veins on the legs, the best treatment option is sclerotherapy, which involves injecting a saline solution in the vessels.
We also have the ClearV laser to treat deep vessels on the face. The ClearV Laser is a Nd:YAG laser that specifically treats vessels including broken capillaries, spider veins, facial veins, etc. Unlike BBL, ClearV only targets the vessel and not the surrounding tissue.
During a private consultation with one of our expert providers, we evaluate your veins and determine which option works for you and your needs.
