We become very self-conscious when going out to public places like the beach. Not only can these make legs appear unattractive, bothersome symptoms such as aching, burning, swelling, and night cramps are associated with these spider veins.

What is Laser Vein Removal?
Some Phoenix men and women begin to notice spider veins, which are small clusters of red, blue, or purple veins, appearing at a young age.They begin to notice them on their thighs, calves, ankles, and even their face! For others, the veins start to appear later in life. No matter when they appear, they can cause feelings of pain or discomfort, as well as make them feel self-conscious.
With simple Laser Vein Removal, a laser is used to shoot an intense beam of light directly at the spider vein. This obliterates the veins through the skin. The heat from the laser’s beam of light will damage the vein, which makes scar tissue form. This scar tissue will close the vein, causing it to lose its source of blood. The vein, without a blood source, will die. Once the vein has died, it will begin to disappear. Simple Laser Vein Treatment is done on the outside of your skin. It can treat spider veins and tiny varicose veins just under the skin’s surface. Usually, there are a few treatments required to fully wipe out the vein.What causes Spider & Varicose veins?
