What are Thread Veins?

Thread veins, sometimes known as spider veins or broken veins, are very fine blood vessels close to the surface of the skin. They occur most frequently in the skin around the thigh and calves and occasionally on the face. They vary in size, pigmentation and intensity from person to person and depending on the skin type can be very visible. They are very common and there is a definite hereditary link and an association with pregnancy. They can also manifest from resolving bruises. These veins are unsightly and can also cause aching of the legs in some patients. Click here to find out more about the treatments available.
