Thread Veins on Legs (Microsclerotherapy)

Thread veins, also called spider veins, are small blood vessels that lie within the skin and have now become dilated and visible. As they become bigger, the colour of these veins gradually changes and they appear red, purple or green. Thread veins are typically found on the legs and affect men and women equally.

Could thread veins be a sign of any other medical issues?

Thread veins can actually have underlying varicose veins that could be feeding them. Varicose veins are often painful and mean that the veins aren’t functioning properly. Some people with hidden varicose veins may have other problems in future. Therefore it is recommended that you see a doctor to seek exact diagnosis.

What are the causes of thread veins?

The stronger your familiar link with your parents’ or relatives’ genes (who had thread veins) the more prone you would be. Trauma, when the fat is destroyed or skin is crushed is also a factor, though it is rare. Crossing legs for too long, wearing tight clothes or hurting shoes are some lifestyle factors that can cause thread veins.

Microsclerotherapy - What it is and how it works?

Microsclerotherapy is a medical process that is performed to treat thread veins. Every patient who suffers from thread veins does not need this, and is done only after a detailed consultation between the doctor and the patient. During Microsclerotherapy, a solution is injected into the affected veins directly. This solution makes the veins scarred and soon they collapse. This further pushes the blood into healthy veins. The fading of the injected veins can take up to a few weeks. In most cases, complete results are visible within one month of the procedure.

Microsclerotherapy is an injection treatment that has been used by doctors for many years, however, if the treatment would be suitable for you or not, is something only an expert would be able to tell.
