Our bodies change as we age. It’s a natural part of life. But often these changes aren’t ones we want to embrace. Consequently, when small, thin veins begin to appear in inconvenient places, such as on the legs, hands, or nose, it’s perfectly normal to want them gone. These lines are called spider veins. Fortunately, spider veins are easily removed, we’ll be going over how to get rid of them on your nose. Vein and Vascular Institute in New Jersey uses the latest in technology and cutting-edge procedures to lessen the appearance of nose spider veins.
What Causes Nose Spider Veins?
The formation of superficial spider veins on your nose or face is sometimes genetic. This means they may run in families and appear normally as you age. They’re mostly harmless except for how they make you feel about your appearance. Spider veins that appear on your nose, forehead, or cheeks are especially unwelcome because they’re impossible to hide. Some causes of nose spider veins include:
- Hormonal changes during menopause
- Smoking
- Alcoholism
- Obesity
- Trauma
- Over-exposure to sunlight
If you’ve recently begun to notice the telltale signs of nose spider veins, contact Vein and Vascular Institute to set up an initial consultation. Treatment is simple and non-invasive, and you’ll be pleased with the results.
Get Rid of Spider Veins Fast
Vein and Vascular Institute offers several state-of-the-art treatment options to get rid of spider veins quickly. They’re non-invasive, same-day treatments that will have you back to your regularly scheduled routine immediately. They include:
Sclerotherapy
During sclerotherapy, a salt solution is injected into fine spider veins, causing them to collapse. The dark lines are then eventually absorbed by the skin and become invisible to the eye. Sclerotherapy may be used on other parts of the body as well, including the hands, breasts, ankles, and feet.
VEINWAVE™
VEINWAVE™ uses radiofrequency energy to close nose spider veins and make them disappear. This is a heat, or thermal, process that uses a pencil-like device to trace over unwanted veins. The veins then coagulate and collapse. Afterward, they’re absorbed by the skin. The results are immediate.
Laser Ablation
Laser ablation is often the preferred treatment for the small veins that appear on the face and nose. During laser ablation, a small laser is aimed at shallow veins that appear just beneath the skin. You may need to return several times for repeat treatments until the veins are gone.
