You May Not Need Traditional Vein Treatment

If you're having problems with unsightly veins, you've probably sought out (or are at least thinking about seeking out) a vein treatment doctor. That's a good first step in finding out what your options are for vein treatment. A good doctor will take a look at the problems that you are presenting with and then assist you in determining whether a treatment like sclerotherapy (or a newer procedure like VNUS Closure Fast) might be right for you.

However, a truly good doctor might tell you that you don't really need to be in his office. Many people have facial veins, or spider veins, that they consider unsightly. They head to the vein doctor because they don't know who else to go to for treatment. While some of these doctors do provide solutions to those problematic veins, most are more in the business of treating varicose veins.

For treatment of spider veins, you probably don't need such an intense procedure. Instead, you can go to a skin rejuvenation doctor to assist you in treating the problem using non-invasive healing techniques. The most common treatment is laser therapy. Other options can be discussed with either your vein treatment doctor or your skin care rejuvenation doctor; either should be able to provide you with the information that you need.

Question of the Day: Which type of doctor would you be first to call for spider vein treatment?
