Solutions for Spider Veins Available at EspritMD

What Are Spider Veins and Why Do They Develop?

Spider veins, also known as telangiectasia, are small, dilated blood vessels near the skin's surface, often appearing as red, blue, or purple lines. They typically develop from a combination of factors that weaken the blood vessel walls, such as prolonged standing or sitting, hormonal changes from pregnancy or menopause, and exposure to sunlight. While lifestyle changes such as elevation of the legs or wearing compression stockings reduce the appearance of spider veins, many people desire a more permanent solution.

How Does espritMD Treat Spider Veins?

At espritMD, we offer both laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) to effectively target and collapse spider veins. Using precise bursts of light, these treatments heat the hemoglobin in the veins, gradually causing them to collapse and fade over time.
For optimal results, Dr. Hatfield recommends 2-3 sessions spaced every few weeks to ensure thorough treatment of all affected vessels. If you have spider veins that you would like removed, schedule a consultation today.
