Spider / Thread Veins
Spider or thread veins are tiny veins just below the surface of the skin that are usually red (or sometimes purple if they are large), and are more prominent than our normal veins. They often appear in small groups or clusters and can affect both men and women, usually from the mid-thirties onwards. They appear most commonly on the nose, cheeks, chest and legs.
