I have some spoder veins but it's because I worked on concrete for so long. I do have a lacework pattern all over my body which looks so bad under fluorescent lights. I can't remember what it is called right now but it kills my self-esteem. There's nothing i can do for it.

I know there was some treatmentof spider/varicose veins a few years back but i assume it has been discontinued or failed because I never see it being advertised anymore.
