When it comes to treating veins and capillaries we opt for using minimally invasive laser therapy to avoid ligation and stripping. IPL is also a great option for treating veins.
Depending on the type of condition the causes can vary. Often leg veins can be caused through pressure buildup, either as a result of pregnancy, weight gain or even frequent flying. So, don’t be too jealous of your jet setting friends as they’re more at risk. Vascular conditions can also be hereditary or caused by sun damage.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF VEIN CONDITIONS?
These are tiny broken blood vessels that can appear anywhere on the body. Often associated with getting older, they can affect anyone at any age, dependant on dietary, environmental and even lifestyle factors.
Often referred to as spider veins for their web-like appearance, they appear most commonly across the cheeks. A dense network of vessels and threadlike veins often appearing in clusters.
Superficial leg veins that are small and red, similar to a pinhead, sometimes referred to as thread veins. These occur under the skin and can form varicose veins; the swollen and enlarged veins that become very visible.
