Leg Vein Therapy
It is estimated that over half of the female population is affected by noticeable red, purple or blue veins, also known as spider veins,
in the upper and lower areas of the legs. Spider veins are a cosmetic problem that many women face, but few realize there is a treatment
for the veins. The Aesthetics Gallery offers both sclerotherapy and laser treatments for leg veins. We will help you determine which is best
for you.
How Leg Vein Therapy Works
Spider veins are caused by a venous insufficiency syndrome, which allows blood in the veins to escape from normal blood flow.
In women, the appearance of spider veins can be linked to such factors as heredity, weight gain, hormonal changes and prolonged sitting
or standing. While mild forms are viewed as a cosmetic problem, spider veins are bothersome and can cause minor aching, burning
and swelling.
The laser treatments involve a laser light that is directed through the skin into the vein by the laser. The heat causes the vein wall to collapse, seal shut, and then be absorbed by the body.
