What are Spider Veins?

When a small vein is not able to properly integrate into the normal flow of blood, it gets pooled up and becomes noticeable to the eye. This is what we call a spider vein, because it looks like lines in a spider’s web. There is nothing dangerous about a spider vein, but if enough of these form, it can be very distracting to the eye and completely dominate a person’s appearance. Luckily, we have many excellent spider vein treatments at Total Glow in Palo Alto to help reduce and fade spider veins so you can start feeling more positively about your looks.

What are Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are large, protruding veins that often appear in tired legs that ache and cause pain.

These veins may be purple or blue in color and they may twist and bulge, causing an unsightly appearance. They are caused by pressure on the extremities. People who stand for long periods of time at work are especially susceptible to varicose vein formation. Varicose vein treatments at Total Glow in Palo Alto can help to minimize and heal these veins, offering relief, well being and an improvement in quality of life. If you wish to learn more, contact us today and schedule a consultation for some of the best results after spider vein treatment Palo Alto has to offer.

What Are the Best Spider Vein Treatments in Palo Alto?

Dermaplaning

With dermaplaning, the outermost damaged layer of skin is scraped off, revealing a more radiant, youthful complexion underneath. It’s excellent for removing unwanted facial hair, reducing facial redness, and minimizing visible veins.

IPL Laser

Intense Pulsed Light is a system of delivering photo rejuvenation to ailing skin, fading hyperpigmentation, as well as unwanted veins. It is non-invasive and gentle, with no downtime or discomfort.

CO2 Laser

The CO2 fractional laser can help to treat sun damage, blotchiness, wrinkles and many other skin imperfections including veins. It can also be instrumental in reducing the appearance of facial scarring.

What Are The Benefits to Treating Spider Veins?

Treating spider and varicose veins offers significant benefits, especially when these conditions are influenced by genetics, prolonged sitting or standing, hormonal imbalances, pregnancy, and fluctuations in weight. Effective treatments can alleviate discomfort, reduce the visibility of unsightly veins, and enhance overall leg appearance, boosting confidence and quality of life. For those with a genetic predisposition, addressing these veins early can prevent progression and complications.

Individuals who sit or stand for extended periods can experience improved circulation and reduced swelling. Hormonal changes and pregnancy often exacerbate vein issues, making timely intervention crucial for maintaining vascular health. Weight fluctuations can strain veins, so treatment can help restore vascular integrity and prevent further damage. Overall, addressing spider and varicose veins not only improves aesthetic concerns but also promotes long-term vein health and comfort.
