Laser Therapy treats many types of leg veins, including shallow spider
veins a nd reticular veins.
Spider Veins are very small
veins caused by a dilation of the small venules under the skin.
This occurs when the pressure inside
the vein increases enough to overcome normal resistance of
the vein wall. The ability of veins to resist increased pressure
is
reduced in women when the body's estrogen level is reduced.
Reticular Veins are small, bluish-colored veins that carry blood
to the skin venules and are larger than spider veins. These veins
have thin walls and dilate with excessive venous pressure. When
this occurs, they become large enough to be unsightly, but are
not considered to be varicose veins.
Both spider veins and reticular veins respond extremely well to
Laser Therapy.
