Having conditions like spider veins can cause lack of confidence and have you even avoiding certain clothing or events.

What Are They?

Thirty to 40% of women and about 20% of men complain about spider veins. They are like varicose veins but smaller and closer to the surface of the skin. They are red or blue and often look like the branches of a tree or a spider web with thin, short, jagged lines. Spider veins are usually found on the face and legs and can cover either a very small or very large area of skin.

Main Causes

• Sun exposure– can cause spider veins on the cheeks or nose of people with fair skin
• Genetics– if family members have vein problems, you are much more likely to suffer
• Hormonal changes– birth control pills and other medicines with estrogen and progesterone can contribute to spider veins. During pregnancy, a major increase in blood flow can also cause veins to enlarge, with more spider veins appearing with each pregnancy
• Inertia– standing or sitting for long periods puts more pressure on your veins while they pump blood to the heart
• Weight– obesity also puts extra pressure on the veins
• Age– the valves in your veins weaken as you get older
