Understanding Spider Veins and How They Form

Telangiectasias, or the technical name for spider vein formation in Dr. Thorpe’s specialty of vascular medicine, can occur on the face, neck, chest, palms, legs, and feet. Though typically spider veins cause little harm, they occasionally start bleeding, and the skin around them becomes more purple in appearance.

Spider veins can develop due to sun damage, hormone fluctuations, medication or hot food reactions, and emotional stressors. External trauma to the face or legs can also cause spider veins to emerge. In addition, smoking or vaping habits can damage the inner layer of arterial vessels and veins to the point of damaging sensitive venous valves.

Ordinarily, valves in veins send blood flow upward, but when the valves weaken, blood can begin to flow backward. Spider veins may be the first indication of venous insufficiency or “reflux” as blood collects and pools within more significant veins. Because of this, spider veins may appear more commonly in Muncie patients with diabetes and those with high blood pressure as venous insufficiency progresses.

​Another way spider veins may form is when patients live sedentary lifestyles. Consistent sitting can put pressure on the legs, causing them to develop. Patients may also be genetically predisposed and, therefore, more apt to see spider veins appear over time.

Removing Spider Veins by Surface Laser Therapy or Sclerotherapy

ReVitalize Med Spa can effectively eliminate the appearance of spider veins and rejuvenate the skin with surface laser therapy and sclerotherapy.

Surface Laser Therapy

Laser therapy uses heat to seal the vein, directing blood flow to another vein nearby. The inherent radiation in a narrow beam of light sends energy to the vein, shrinking affected tissue. As a result, scar tissue forms inside the small vessels, and blood finds its way to an adjacent vein.

Sclerotherapy

Another approach to removing spider veins in Muncie is sclerotherapy, a treatment that dissolves them using a salt solution or salt-based detergent. The salt solution is injected, and the spider veins fade away within a few weeks.
