It is most common in women, especially those with pale skin. Visible blood vessels are often caused by conditions such as: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Heredity.<\/li><li>Standing for long periods of time.<\/li><li>Obesity.<\/li><li>Hormones (especially during pregnancy and menopause).<\/li><li>Birth control pills.<\/li><li>Blood clots.<\/li><li>Tumors. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two major types of visible blood vessels: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK470194\/\" target=\"_blank\">varicose veins<\/a> and spider veins. Varicose veins are large raised blood vessels that develop mostly in the legs. Spider veins are smaller, typically red or blue, and they can appear on both the legs and face. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simple laser treatment works for veins just under the skin surface. It works by damaging the vein to cause scar tissue to form which closes it off from blood. Simple laser treatment is performed just outside the skin and typically requires <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entofga.com\/request-appointment\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"110\">sessions<\/a> every six to 12 weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Endovenous laser treatment treats larger veins and is performed by passing a laser fiber through a catheter directly into the vein. Only local anesthesia is required for this treatment. <br><\/p>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"\/contact\">Contact<\/a> ENT of Georgia North for more information or to <a href=\"\/request-appointment\">schedule an appointment<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Laser Hair Laser hair removal is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the United States.
