Leg Veins
As a person ages, the valves in their veins may become weak and not work quite as well as they used to, allowing blood to pool in the legs. Genetics, health history, hormonal changes, pregnancy, being overweight, prolonged periods of standing and a lack of movement all can lead to the development of visible leg veins.
There are two types of abnormal leg veins: spider and varicose veins. Both types are quite common, with over 50% of women and 40% of men experiencing some type of leg vein issue.
Unfortunately, abnormal leg veins do not fade or disappear on their own but can be treated at Guelph Medical Laser and Skin Centre.
