Known also as telangiectasias, spider veins are thin blood vessels that are blue, red or purple in color. They often appear on the surface of the
skin, mainly on the face (nose and cheeks) or legs (thighs, calves and ankles).
On occasion, they develop elsewhere. Spider veins are given their name because
they take on the shape of a spider web, whereby the veins branch out in various
directions from a central location.
While spider veins are typically treated for cosmetic
reasons, there are times where these veins can cause symptoms like night cramps,
fatigue, swelling, itching, burning or aching.
About Miami Vein Center
Welcome to Miami Vein Center!
Varicose veins take away from the beauty and appearance of your legs. Perhaps more importantly, varicose veins produce significant symptoms and can lead to serious medical conditions. The good news is that varicose veins can be removed quickly, with minimal discomfort, in a doctor's office. There is no need for hospitalization and the recovery time is measured in minutes, not weeks. Almost immediately, you will be able to do all the things you did before you developed varicose veins.
While this may sound too good to be true, the expert staff at the Miami Vein Center using clinically proven new technology called endovenous therapy can eliminate your varicose veins with a minimally invasive procedure in the comfort and security of our office. The procedure takes about 45 minutes and the recovery period is about 10 minutes. In about an hour you can be free of your varicose veins. You will be able to return to normal activities the very next day.
The future of vein care is in Miami. Please do not hesitate to call the Miami Vein Center if you have any questions or concerns. We are here for you!
