A lot of people are affected by spider veins. Spider veins are small, unattractive clusters of red, blue or purple veins that most commonly appear on the thighs, calves, ankles, or face. Although spider veins are more likely to affect women, even men are known to be affected by them. You may be surprised to know that more than 50% of adult women around the world are faced with the problem of spider veins.
The plastic surgery treatment that is used to reduce or altogether remove spider veins is known as Sclerotherapy. In this procedure, spider veins are injected with a solution that causes them to collapse and makes them much less visible.
