Hand Vein Treatment in Orange County

Orange County Hand Vein Treatment
Many women and men are bothered by the unsightly bulging veins on the back of the hands. These veins often become prominent and visible with age as the subcutaneous fat that normally hides the veins is diminished and the dermis of the skin becomes thin and translucent. These bulging hand veins are not diseased or varicose veins, they are simply normal veins which simply appear prominent. It is important to note that they appear large when the hand is allowed to rest below the level of the heart (down by your side).



There are three common methods of treatment to improve the appearance of these veins.

• Sclerotherapy (injections) using chemicals to remove the unsightly hand veins.
• Phlebectomy (surgical removal through small incisions) is also used to remove these hand veins.
• Fat transfer which involves removal of fat from an unwanted location and transfer to the back of the hands in order to hide these unsightly veins.
