Spider Vein Removal in Mt. Juliet

Spider veins can occur when valves in your veins weaken, leading to blood pooling. They can also occur when small existing veins gradually expand, becoming more visible. Also, your body may develop veins unnecessarily close to the skin’s surface, contributing to their noticeable appearance. 

At first, that sounds scary, but spider veins are very common and harmless. At Allyn Aesthetics, we understand that living with spider veins can be bothersome for many. We provide expert spider vein removal in Mt. Juliet to reduce their appearance and restore your confidence in your skin.

• Genetics: If you have a history of spider veins in your family, talk to your provider about it during your consultation—weakened vein valves can be hereditary.

• Hormonal changes: Changes in hormones caused by pregnancy, menopause, or birth control can contribute to the development of spider veins.

• Aging: Our skin naturally loses elasticity and strength as we age, wearing down the veins and making it harder for blood to flow efficiently.

During your consultation with Jen, she will ask about your medical history and current concerns to get a better picture of where your spider veins are coming from and how to treat them.

Spider veins and varicose veins are similar, but they differ in their size, location, and appearance. 

• Spider veins are smaller, closer to the skin’s surface, and doctors refer to them as “telangiectasia”. They are usually red, blue, or purple and form in a web-like pattern—hence the name “spider veins”.

• Varicose veins are larger, dilated veins found deeper beneath the skin. They tend to have a bulging appearance and look rope-like.

Varicose veins can indicate underlying circulation issues and cause discomfort or swelling. On the other hand, spider veins are primarily a cosmetic concern. When you come in for your consultation, Jen will assess which condition you’re living with and inform you of the results. If spider vein removal in Mt. Juliet is right for you, our team will come up with a comprehensive treatment plan to meet your needs.

The number of required sessions will vary based on the severity and location of your spider veins. We typically recommend clients get 1 to 4 treatments for optimal results. 1 session may reduce the appearance of spider veins in a small area, while larger areas can take up to 4 sessions. After an examination of the treatment areas, Jen will provide a personalized plan and educate you on the treatment process.

Your results from spider vein removal in Mt. Juliet will provide results that can last from 12 to 24 months. The treated veins won’t return, however, new spider veins can form based on factors like lifestyle, aging, and genetics.

Maintenance treatments are an excellent way to ensure the most long-term results. With our ongoing care and guidance, we will help you maintain a refreshed and youthful appearance.

We have a short list of recommendations for you to follow that will ensure you get the most out of treatment. Preparation and after-treatment care are both straightforward.

Pre-care:

• Avoid prolonged sun exposure for at least 2 weeks prior to your appointment.

• Don’t use lotions and creams on the treatment area on the day of your session.

• Wear comfortable clothing for your appointment to allow for easier access to the desired area.

• Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water to keep your skin in the best condition possible for treatment.

After treatment, most clients can return to their everyday life with no downtime. Any mild redness or swelling in the treatment area can subside after just 2 to 3 days. Visible improvements may become noticeable within a few weeks. After you schedule your spider vein removal appointment, our team will provide you with the necessary pre and post-care information.
