Thread veins on the legs can strike at any age. The red or bluish coloured visible veins can be quite prominent and unsightly for the sufferer.
The good news is, if you are looking to get rid of thread veins before the summer, then now is the perfect time to start treatment.
Summer may feel like a distant dream, but it won’t be long before the weather starts to warm a little so that we can dig out those shorts or start to pack our suitcases.
While our legs tend to spend most of the winter covered up, it’s easy to forget about them.
However, if your legs are blighted with thread veins, then this is the ideal time to tackle them.
Depending on the severity and extent of the problem, thread veins can be very effectively treated by either laser treatment or sclerotherapy, which involves injections of a special substance. Both of these work to either destroy or shrink the veins deeper under the surface of the skin so that they are not visible, leaving a more even skin tone without the obvious blemishes caused by visible veins.
In both cases, the skin should be kept away from direct sunlight after treatment, so spring is the perfect time to embark on thread vein removal, especially if a number of sessions are required.
