The Science Behind Prominent Blood Vessels

Varicose and Spider veins are caused by similar factors such as standing for long periods of time, weight gain, age, hormones and contraceptives, history of blood clots, hereditary factors and more. Varicose veins are enlarged veins that look like blue, red, or flesh colored cords that twist and bulge above the skin’s surface. Spider veins are similar to varicose veins but are smaller and more superficial.

Fast Facts

Varicose veins are caused by weakened or damaged valves in the deep venous system. When blood cannot be pumped to the heart effectively, it pools in veins making them bigger, hence varicose. Our providers will assess your case and make the best recommendation based on your condition. It may be that you require surgery or more invasive treatments.

Spider veins are caused by the backup of blood as well, but hormonal changes, sun exposure, diet, weight fluctuations, exercise and injuries play a role in their formation. These can be found all over the body, but especially on the legs and face. Most often these vessels can be treated with sclerotherapy or lasers.

Here is some advice:  Get regular physical activity to keep your blood flowing.  Lose weight, if you are overweight. Do not sit or stand for a long time, if you need to, wear compression stockings.
