Spider veins are small, damaged blood vessels that appear on the surface of the skin, often resembling a web-like pattern. While they are typically harmless, they can cause discomfort, itching, or a burning sensation. If left untreated, spider veins may worsen over time, affecting both appearance and circulation
At Heart Vascular and Leg Center , our expert team offers advanced, minimally invasive treatments to effectively reduce the appearance of spider veins and improve vascular health. Whether you are experiencing cosmetic concerns or discomfort, we provide personalized solutions to restore your confidence and well-being.
Spider veins are small, visible veins that appear close to the surface of the skin, often in a web-like or branching pattern. While they are usually not painful, they can indicate underlying circulation issues. Recognizing the symptoms early can help you seek timely treatment and prevent further complications.
Thin, red, blue, or purple veins visible under the skin
A web-like or branch-like pattern on the legs, face, or other areas
Mild swelling in the legs, especially after long periods of standing
A feeling of heaviness, itching, or burning around the veins
Increased discomfort after prolonged sitting or standing
Spider veins can develop due to various factors, often influenced by genetics and lifestyle. While they are not always a sign of a serious health condition, they can indicate underlying venous insufficiency. Here are some common causes of spider veins:
Spider veins develop when the small valves inside veins weaken, causing blood to pool and create visible, web-like veins on the skin’s surface. Poor circulation is a major factor in this process, as it increases pressure within the veins and prevents proper blood flow. Conditions such as chronic venous insufficiency, prolonged sitting or standing, obesity, and aging contribute to this issue by weakening vein walls and reducing their ability to function efficiently. As a result, the veins become enlarged and more noticeable, often appearing on the legs and face.
Over time, spider veins can lead to discomfort, swelling, and a heavy sensation in the affected areas. While they are not always harmful, untreated spider veins may worsen and signal underlying vascular problems. Early intervention can improve circulation, prevent complications, and enhance skin appearance. At Heart Vascular and Leg Center, our specialists offer advanced, minimally invasive treatments to effectively manage spider veins and restore healthy blood flow.

An angiogram is an advanced imaging test that uses X-rays and a contrast dye to map your blood vessels, helping detect blockages or abnormalities in circulation.
During angioplasty, a low-profile catheter with an inflatable balloon is used to stretch the affected artery open. This process restores blood flow to the rest of the body. In cases where a clot is blocking the artery, medicine can be administered through the catheter.
Using cutting-edge technology, including orbital and rotational devices, atherectomy removes built-up plaque from arteries. This method is ideal for cases where stents aren’t suitable, ensuring better blood flow.
IVC filter placement is a life-saving procedure where a small device is inserted into the inferior vena cava to catch blood clots before they reach the lungs.
