Spider Vein Creams

A series of recent studies have found benefit in the ability of Escin, which is the active ingredient in Horse chestnut.  Escin helps to reduce and lower the volume and symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency.  Escin may work by lowering the amount of inflammation that is seen in patients with venous disease.  Unfortunately, it will NOT prevent venous disease or make your varicose veins go away.  But, it may be helpful in reducing some of the symptoms of the disease.

No, there are no creams and pills that will get rid of spider veins.   Be a skeptic.    There are many companies that claim they have the newest technology with creams and/or pills that will get rid of spider veins.  These claims are grossly exaggerated.   Some even claim to cure venous disease with a pill, which is untrue.   There are many misleading sites out there.  Many sites claim to give unbiased reviews for procedures and products to educate the public.  They then go on to hype their own particular pill or product.  Don’t be mislead by these scams!  It is best to get your information from reliable scientific sites, such as, the American College of Phlebology.
