The exact cause of spider veins has not been proven, but heredity, local trauma, hormonal levels, and occupations requiring prolonged standing are believed to be contributing factors. Spider veins become more numerous with age, and are more common in women. With today’s Alaska Rewards $148 deal you get a spider-vein treatment (a $600 value) or $600 toward a varicose-vein treatment at Alaska Vein Care at either of their locations in Wasilla or Kenai.

Alaska Vein Care’s board-certified doctors specialize in phlebology, an emerging field of vein medicine. After your initial consultation you begin the treatment, which is a noninvasive injection that causes the veins to start closing in on its self and be absorbed by your body. The whole procedure is only an hour long and then you head home to relax.

Varicose veins affect nearly 40 per cent of the population. Due to hormonal factors, women are affected by this condition three times as much as men. Alaska Vein Care’s doctors use endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) for varicose veins. The whole procedure takes place at Alaska Vein Care’s office and only requires local anesthetic. Many health-insurance plans cover Varicose Vein treatment, but with today’s Alaska Rewards offer you can apply the $600 value toward the out-of-pocket expenses, such as the deductible, co-pay, and co-insurance. Summer is almost here, are your legs ready?
