With the trouble of spider veins are facing most of the adult population, because of this, it takes a top place among the vascular lesions. Typically, with age, their number is only growing; most often, they occur in women. Anomalies occur at the site of small blood vessels, the diameter of which increases by a number of factors. Depending on this, telangiectasia may have a distinct color – red, blue or purple. Reds develop from capillaries and arterioles, blue – from the venules. In addition, they are unique in shapes – linear, tree, star-shaped.
There are enough reasons for the formation of vascular anomalies – infectious disease, trauma, surgery, skin diseases, and malfunction of the hormone system, the effects of various physical aspects (sun, high temperatures, and radiation). Women provoke a persistent enlargement of small blood vessels are able to:
Pregnancy,
childbirth,
abortion (including medication),
menopause,
uterine fibroids,
ovarian cysts,
as well as oral contraceptives.
Establish the true cause analysis will help to hormonal and gynecologist.
Typically, telangiectasia is located on the face – the nose and cheeks, as well as on the lower extremities, especially hips. In the initial case the disease is called rosacea and do not present any risk other than the aesthetic flaws of the skin. In rare situations, women may be vascular mesh paining earlier than the next menstruation. In the second case, varicose veins can be a symptom of chronic venous insufficiency, especially when it comes to men. However, the diagnosis should consult a physician phlebologist; it is not usually visible grid of small blood vessels in the legs affiliated with varicose veins.
There are several effective and safe procedures for the spider veins treatment. Sclerotherapy requires gluing the walls of the blood vessel by introducing into the lumen of a special substance – sclerosant. For this function, fine needle. With this solves the problem of the impact of venous anomalies, but there is a risk of opposed events – hyperpigmentation, allergies, enlarged capillaries. As a rule, sclerotherapy combined with subsequent elastic compression. When laser photocoagulation is completely painless thermal destruction of cells and telangiectasia disappear.
A new and promising method for varicose veins treatment is ozone therapy. Active ozone-oxygen combination, injected intravenously, causes oxidation of cellular membranes on the inner floor of blood vessels and cosmetic defect disappears. However, we should remember that without finding out and eliminating the causes of the blood vessels is probably relapse. Consequently, just before the procedure of spider vein treatment there is a need to pass a extensive telangiectasia medical examination and to normalize hormones.
Spider veins treatment with laser.
This technique involves the elimination of spider veins laser which is directed to the capillary walls of veins, which leads to effects on hemoglobin, clumps of red blood cells which are the cause of varicose. The laser beam heats the skin through the walls of veins (on the principle of selective heating of ferrous objects that are close to white). Capillary “sealed.” In this procedure is accompanied by a slight burning sensation. To minimize discomfort, and avoid postoperative burns during surgery is used cry generator that can cool the skin.
Spider veins treatment by one method or another is appointed doctor phlebologist individually, taking into account the peculiarities of life, wellbeing, allergic predis place, as well as intolerance of medicines or techniques of influence on the body. For example, a method to remove spider veins laser is contraindicated in patients with dark skin or people taking anti-biotics or retinoids (or getting an increased sensitivity to them).That is why it is vital to be diagnosed, as well as inform your doctor about all the features of the organism.
You should not delay diagnosis and treatment, should contact the Department of Phlebology at the first symptoms. This allows choosing the most effective and safest method of troubleshooting.
