What Are Spider Veins?


Spider veins (telangiectasias) are small, dilated blood vessels near the surface of the skin. Though typically harmless, they may cause mild discomfort and often signal underlying venous insufficiency. Common on the legs, thighs, ankles, and face, these veins can worsen with age, hormonal changes, or prolonged standing.


What Causes Them?


  • Genetics: Family history is the #1 risk factor
  • Hormonal changes: Pregnancy, menopause, birth control
  • Lifestyle: Long hours standing or sitting, lack of exercise
  • Sun exposure: Especially on the face
  • Aging: Weakened vein walls over time


Spider Veins vs. Varicose Veins


  • Spider veins: Thin, red or blue, flat, cosmetic concern
  • Varicose veins: Bulging, rope-like, may cause pain or swelling


If varicose veins are present, they should be treated first before addressing spider veins.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • Are spider vein treatments painful?

    Most patients describe sclerotherapy as feeling like tiny pinpricks. Laser treatments may cause mild stinging sensations. Overall discomfort is minimal and well-tolerated by most patients.


  • How many treatments will I need?

    Most patients require 2-4 treatment sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. The number depends on the extent of spider veins and individual response to treatment.

  • Will my spider veins come back after treatment?

    Treated spider veins are permanently eliminated. However, new spider veins may develop over time due to genetic factors and aging. Periodic maintenance treatments help maintain clear legs.

  • Can I treat spider and varicose veins at the same time?

    If underlying varicose veins or venous reflux is present, these are typically treated first. Spider vein treatment is then performed several weeks later for optimal cosmetic results.

  • Is spider vein treatment covered by insurance?

    Spider vein treatment is typically considered cosmetic and not covered by insurance unless associated with underlying venous disease causing medical symptoms.

  • Will my leg swelling get worse without treatment?

    Many causes of leg swelling are progressive and worsen over time without appropriate treatment. Early intervention typically provides better outcomes.

  • Can exercise help with leg swelling?

    Appropriate exercise is beneficial for most types of leg swelling by improving circulation and lymphatic drainage. Your doctor will recommend suitable activities based on your condition.

  • Are there medications that cause leg swelling?

    Yes, common culprits include certain blood pressure medications, anti-inflammatory drugs, hormone medications, and diabetes medications. Never stop medications without consulting your doctor.

  • When will I see improvement in leg swelling?

    Timeline varies by cause and treatment. Venous treatments may show improvement within days to weeks, while systemic causes may take longer to respond to treatment.

  • Can diet affect leg swelling?

    Yes, high sodium intake can worsen swelling. Maintaining adequate protein intake and staying hydrated are also important. Your doctor may recommend specific dietary modifications.
