Spider Veins

What Are Spider Veins?

Spider veins, also known as telangiectasias, are small, dilated blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin, often forming red, blue, or purple web-like patterns. They most commonly appear on the legs and face. While spider veins are usually harmless, they can be a cosmetic concern for many. Various factors contribute to the development of spider veins, including genetics, age, and prolonged standing or sitting.

What Causes Spider Veins?

  • Genetics: If your family members have spider veins, you’re more likely to develop them as well.
  • Prolonged Sitting or Standing: Occupations that require extended periods of standing or sitting can increase pressure on the veins, leading to the formation of spider veins.
  • Hormonal Changes: Pregnancy, birth control pills, and menopause can increase the likelihood of developing spider veins due to changes in blood circulation and hormone levels.
  • Sun Exposure: UV rays can weaken blood vessels over time, especially on the face, contributing to the formation of spider veins.
  • Age: As you age, your veins can lose elasticity, making them more prone to dilation and the appearance of spider veins.
