What are Spider Veins?

Named for their web-like appearance on the skin, spider veins are tiny, dilated blood vessels found near the surface of the skin. These can be caused by a variety of factors such as:

  • Age
  • Weight
  • Pregnancy
  • Prolonged sitting or standing
  • Sun exposure
  • Heredity
  • Hormones

While many individuals choose to cover up their spider veins with clothing or makeup, there are non-surgical ways to remove spider veins from the skin without extensive healing or recovery time. At Delta Laser and Skin Care Centre, we offer cutting-edge technologies with maximum patient safety and comfort in mind.

IPL Photorejuvenation Therapy

Utilizing light-based therapy, Intense Pulsed Light or IPL photorejuvenation treatments involve a photosensitive medication that is applied to treated areas. After the medication is allowed to sit on the skin and penetrate below the surface, the skin is exposed to a light device is specially designed to target vascular conditions and other skin imperfections. IPL Photorejuvenation is especially effective at removing spider veins from sensitive areas on the face.

Sclerotherapy

For spider veins on the legs and ankles, sclerotherapy is one of the most effective treatment methods. Involving injections of sodium chloride solution into affected veins, sclerotherapy causes the walls of the veins to stick together, sealing them off and rerouting blood through healthy vessels.
