Varicose Veins
Varicose veins are elongated, bulged and twisted veins below the skin on your legs that are a darkish blue colour.
Varicose veins are usually a symptomatic of a much more serious disease known as "venous insufficiency". Varicose veins are often accompanied by symptoms including swelling, aching, heaviness, burning, cramping and itching.
Spider Vein
Spider veins are the most distal and smallest vein tributaries under the skin which can be dark red or purple colour. Spider veins have the apperance of spider webs.
Spider veins usually signal venous disease and are connected to larger veins. Aside from their unpleasant apperance, there is no associated serious symptoms with spider veins. Spider veins like varicose veins are usually hereditary.

The skin incision is 2-3 mm deep and the procedure is done under local anesthetic.
