    The more common term for this condition is "spider veins". Prolonged and unprotected sun exposure over the years is the primary cause. Prevention therefore is through DAILY use of sunblock. Check with your derma how IPL therapy can help erase spider veins. A series of 3 to 4 treatments is usually sufficient.
