Visible facial and leg veins are common and may be associated with genetics, hormonal changes, pregnancy, rosacea, sun exposure, or prolonged standing. While many visible veins are harmless, some patients may seek treatment because of their appearance or because leg veins may be associated with symptoms such as heaviness or swelling.
At Dr. Dany Touma’s clinics, treatment is selected according to the type, size, location, and characteristics of the visible vessels. Laser technology may be used to target small facial and leg vessels, while sclerotherapy may be considered for certain larger leg veins.
A clinical assessment helps determine the appropriate treatment approach and whether further vascular evaluation is required.
