Understanding Varicose and Spider Veins
Varicose and spider veins are common in both men and women. Varicose veins are large, swollen veins, usually on the legs and feet, caused by weakened valves. Spider veins are smaller, red, or blue veins that appear on the skin’s surface, commonly on the legs and face.
Causes and Risk Factors of Varicose Veins
- Gender: More common in women
- Age: Risk increases with age
- Genetics: Family history of varicose veins
- Occupation: Jobs requiring prolonged standing or sitting
- Overweight: Excess weight puts extra pressure on veins
- Pregnancy: Increased blood volume and hormonal changes
Symptoms of Varicose Veins
Varicose veins are most noticeable by their bulged, twisted appearance in purple or blue. Besides their look, they can cause:
- Leg discomfort and pain
- Heaviness in the legs
- Swelling in ankles and feet
- Throbbing or burning sensations
- Itchy, dry skin over the affected veins

What is Laser Vein Removal?
Laser vein removal is a non-surgical procedure that utilizes focused laser energy to close and eliminate varicose and spider veins. The body then naturally absorbs the treated veins, leaving smooth and clear skin behind.
How Does Laser Vein Removal Work?
During the procedure, a laser emits focused light that penetrates the skin, targeting and heating the affected veins. This heat causes the veins to collapse and close. Over time, the body absorbs the treated vein, redirecting blood flow to healthier veins
Benefits of Laser Vein Removal
Laser vein removal offers numerous benefits, making it a preferred choice for many patients:
- Minimally Invasive: No incisions or stitches required
- Quick and Convenient: Procedure typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes
- Minimal Discomfort: Local anesthesia may be used to enhance comfort
- Effective Results: Significant improvement in vein appearance
- Short Recovery Time: Most patients resume normal activities quickly
