One reason to hide your legs fromprying eyes is a venous net on the legs. Most often, it bothers women, but is well known to men. Unfortunately, the venous mesh on the legs is not only a cosmetic, but also a medical problem. The appearance of "swollen" veins may indicate their improper functioning (the so-called venous insufficiency), deformities (a significant increase) or strokes (when minor subcutaneous bleeding appears). As phlebologists say, vein problems are often hereditary. However, it is impossible not to notice a number of factors that provoke the emergence of such troubles as the venous network. These include the following:
- long stay in a vertical position;
- injuries (including chemical and thermal);
- birth of a child;
- excessive load on the lower limbs (during physical labor);
- wrong position of the foot (when wearing high heels);
- low physical activity and, as a result, blood stasis;
- hormonal imbalance in the fair sex.
The last factor is dominant.The fact is that estrogen, which is produced by the ovaries, contributes to the stretching of collagen protein, which, in turn, is involved in the formation of vein walls.
Laser treatment
Before treatment, doctors are alwayswarn their patients that the venous mesh on the legs after elimination from one part may appear in another. However, a modern cosmetic treatment, laser, can achieve a remarkable cosmetic effect. Experts have already appreciated its benefits. The venous net on the legs does not just disappear, it is cured completely safely, reliably and painlessly. The laser only affects the damaged vein, and therefore does not affect healthy tissue. After such procedures (their number depends on the state of human health, but on average there are 2-5), no scars or marks remain on the skin. True, sessions are held not daily, but at intervals of 1-2 weeks.
Microsclerotherapy
If the vein has a diameter greater than 0.5 mm, thenIt will be difficult to affect it with a laser. In this case, it is better to use microsclerotherapy. This method involves the introduction of a special fluid with a needle, which sticks together a vein. The number of shots is quite large, and the session itself can last up to an hour.
Other treatments
The best venous mesh on the legs is treated in thosecases where several methods are used at once. So, to remove swelling, feel the coolness and improve the elasticity of blood vessels will help special gels, in particular, "Lioton", "Troxevasin", "Dolobene" and others. It is possible to get rid of pain in the legs and strengthen the walls of the veins due to the course of treatment with such drugs as Antistax, Detralex, Flebodia or Vazoket. The use of compression knitwear (stockings, leggings) will be appropriate. Each such "accessory" carries its pressure on the foot, and therefore the best option should be chosen according to the recommendations of the doctor. Also, do not forget about training muscles and blood vessels with the help of simple gymnastic exercises and contrasting soul.
