Most people believe that spider veins only occur in the legs. But this isn’t true. Although they’re commonly found in that area of the body, they can develop anywhere on your body, including your face.
If you’re currently dealing with spider veins on your face, it’s understandable that you’re confused about to what you should do about the problem.
The good news is that you don’t have to spend a fortune to remove spider veins. You also don’t have to worry about getting surgery.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at some of the options and treatments available for removing spider veins from the face:
Get Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure in which a salt solution—called a sclerosant—is injected into the area where the infected veins have manifested.
The sclerosant leads to scarring, and forces the blood to flow backward. This reroutes the blood toward healthier veins, improving blood circulation.
Sclerotherapy also removes infected and damaged veins. The procedure is quick and pain-free and you don’t have to worry about infections post-treatment.
Sclerotherapy is a popular treatment option because of its high success rate. It’s also perfect for removing spider veins.
Laser Ablation
Laser ablation is a minimally invasive treatment method. The treatment involves laser energy being used to damage and burn affected veins.
The heat from the laser destroys the infected veins and turns them into dead tissue. The tissue is then safely removed from the body.
This treatment is also relatively pain-free (compared to surgery) and takes hardly 30 to 40 minutes. You can return to your daily chores and work the next day.
Furthermore, there are no known side effects of laser ablation, compared to invasive procedures and treatments.
Moreover, you don’t have to worry about facial scarring.
