A member asked:
Will vitamin e cream help get rid of visible spider veins at all?

No chance: Spider veins must be destroyed, either by injections of sclerosing solutions or laser treatment. No topical creams or solutions work.

No: Vitamin e is all promises when it comes to benefits. It is a common cause of allergic skin reactions. The gold standard for spider veins involves injections to eliminate them.

Maybe: Vitamin e may be helpful in preventing and repairing damaged veins by helping to promote and improve your blood's circulation. However, i would recommend that you get an ultrasound to determine the cause of the spider veins as they usually tend to be associated with a more serious underlying problem.
