Dr. Shamma's laser-based, in-office treatment has been adopted by the majority of centers around the world since its introduction in April 2001.

The network of veins on the back of the hand is covered by a layer of fat and generally thick non-transparent skin, making these veins largely invisible. Genetic factors, loss of fat around the veins, and aging of the skin, make these veins prominent and unsightly to some.

A varicose vein is a large, bulging vein, which can be caused by a faulty valve, weak vein wall, or combination of both. Patients with varicose veins receive an evaluation to determine the underlying cause.

Small veins near the surface of the skin are called "spider" veins also known as broken capillaries. Patients with spider veins usually do not need an extensive evaluation.
