Spider veins become increasingly common with age, although there are many possible causes behind them, including lifestyle, genetics, and activity. A family history of spider veins can predispose you to developing them. If you often sit or stand for long periods of time, you may be more likely to get them as well.
Cure Those Spider Veins
At Polaris Vein & Aesthetics, we want our patients to feel fully confident in themselves, and spider veins can be an obstacle to that confidence. Spider veins manifest as small purple, blue, or red blood vessels near the skin’s surface that disrupt the skin’s appearance. If you’re ready to be rid of these veins, then we can help with our innovative spider vein treatment in Columbus! Our team works hard to help patients rejuvenate their health and self-confidence.
Types of Spider Vein Treatments
Sclerotherapy
This kind of treatment uses a surgical needle to inject a solution directly into the affected area, causing spider veins to collapse and lighten over time. It’s a minimally invasive treatment with little downtime.
Laser Vein Treatment
Ideal for spider veins on the face, laser vein removal directs a targeted beam of light at the vessels to break them down.
