Varicose veins are the blue or purplish enlarged veins you typically see bulging out of a person’s leg, most often on the backs of the calves or on the inside of the legs. If varicose veins are severe, don’t ignore treatment, as they can rupture or form ulcers on the skin, which require immediate attention.
The variety of treatments for varicose veins range from sclerotherapy and phlebectomy to EVLT laser treatments. A consultation with one of our vascular surgeon will help you determine which treatment is best for you.

Similar to varicose veins, spider veins are smaller. They are often red or blue and are closer to the surface of the skin than varicose veins.
The thin veins on the legs termed spider veins usually appear on the thighs and ankles. The veins on the face generally appear on the nose, chin or cheek area and often occur in Rosacea.

If found on the legs, spider veins can look like tree branches or spider webs with their short jagged lines. Spider veins may be isolated or associated with “feeder” veins.
They can also be associated with larger underlying varicose veins. If that is the case, the varicose veins or feeder vein should be treated prior to treatment of the spider veins.
The most common treatments for isolated spider veins are sclerotherapy and laser treatments.
