Spider veins

Spider veins are small branching red or purple vessels that resemble fine webs or tree branches. They may appear on the face or legs and often develop due to genetics, sun exposure or increased pressure in the vessels.

Why they occur

  • Sun exposure leading to weakening of vessel walls
  • Genetic predisposition
  • Pregnancy or hormonal changes
  • Skin conditions such as rosacea

Treatment options

Facial spider veins respond well to pulsed dye laser, while certain leg veins may require other specialised treatments. Laser therapy works by collapsing the vessel so it can be reabsorbed naturally.

  • Improves clarity and skin tone
  • Low downtime
  • Often noticeable improvement after a few sessions
