Spider
Veins
Are spider
veins a serious health issue, some times referred to as thread
veins, a question raised by worried patients? Are spider veins
treatable or more importantly painful, because we all differ
greatly in how cope with different health conditions makes this
a hard question to answer? Spider veins are not a
physically agonizing condition however they can cause extreme
emotional upset for those who suffer from them and especially
if on the face and legs.
Facial spider veins are not caused
by any venous pressure and are assumed to occur due to the
aging process and exposure to the sun, thus two of which are
said to be the cause of wrinkles, the sun more so for premature
wrinkling, another known cause for early wrinkle appearing
before time is smoking, of which is a major health risk in
itself involving lung cancer.. Spider vein treatments until
recently was mask over creams which do not cure, but instead
just cover up the problem. However there are now solutions in a
much wider variety to help treat and clear spider
veins.
"Unique"
Rejuvenating Skin
Care
One
solution is a hand held device which merges an intense pulse of
light, the heat produced heats the blood until it breaks down
the wall of the vein. The blood is freely dispersed around the
region evenly and the remaining vein is gradually absorbed into
the body. Six week period involving 2/3 treatments makes the
veins collapse leaving the skin blemish free. If the spider
veins are very dark in colour then treatment may take longer
lasting up to 2-3 sessions.
Thread vein treatment varies
slightly in that before a doctor will carry out any medical
process before they will generally send for a venous duplex
ultrasound. This is to make sure that there is no underlying
leg pump failure beneath the thread veins. Spider veins are not
to be confused with varicose veins which are more recognized to
being located on the legs. Varicose veins have different levels
of severity so therefore treatment will have to be determined
by your physician. Varicose veins implicate that there are
signs of leg pump failure.
Discomfort can follow removal
treatment after undergoing laser surgery; the good news is the
procedure is permanent after 2-3 sessions. Check with your
doctor and ask for more information on spider vein treatments
and removal procedures. Never use over the counter medication
without checking with your doctor first. You can find out more
information on varicose veins by going to the page on the
remedy 4 wrinkles website or by visiting a health portal
online.
