Spider Veins
Spider veins may be inherited or caused by pregnancy and trauma to the leg. Vitamin K cream constricts blood vessels and applying this on your legs is supposed to make the veins less visible. However, for this to work, the cream has to penetrate the skin and be absorbed into the veins, and the cream cannot do this. Slerotherapy is still the best option; a 95 percent improvement can be seen after three treatments. Your dermatologist will inject saline solution to irritate the veins and cause them to swell shut.
