I would spray my finger and then lightly dab the area underneath my eyes... I noticed it substantially lessened the spider vein's visibility... Which is great because back when I worked as a real estate agent and had alot of money I spent at least $1000 on IPL (laser) treatments on my face to get rid of them. The IPL would always work for a few months, but they would always creep back... Oh yeah, and it was fairly painful and additionally scarred the skin on my face one time when the young lady applying the IPL became overzealous and cranked the laser strength up much too high... At about $11 for a 4 oz. Bottle, I'd say the Arnica is a bargain, especially as it seems just about as effective as the IPL's were in diminishing the veins! For some reason it never occurred to me to try the Arnica spray on the varicose veins on my legs, but about two weeks ago I finally did. I sprayed the veins down pretty thoroughly, and within a half hour noticed a difference. Over the past two weeks I've been spraying the veins on my legs and other parts of my body with the Arnica on a daily basis and I just can't believe how much they've faded!! They're still visible, don't get me wrong, but I've had both laser treatments and sclerotherapy on my legs which was less effective and MUCH more expensive!! Plus, the sclerotherapy left odd dark marks where the needles had injected the saline that remained all over my legs for a year, and I wasn't able to wear shorts--thanks alot, what was the point in the first place?? I didn't find the laser treatments to be at all effective on my varicose veins, in particular the "deal" I got once for $150. You get what you pay for, really. I had a little more success with a much more expensive laser treatment, but again, the veins always seemed to come back. In two weeks, applying Arnica topically has diminished the appearance of my varicose veins to the point where I'm wearing shorts and looking at my legs all the time! I just can't say how happy I am to be able to wear skirts and shorts without feeling like someone will notice my ugly blue patches!!! Again, I want to make it clear that the veins are still there, just MUCH fainter... Additionally, my varicose veins would not be considered severe by any means, so I don't know how much it would work for someone with very thick and visible veins, but I've had moderate varicose veins on my legs since I was 18 or so... I can't say enough good things about this relatively inexpensive cure, after all of those lousy pocket-stripping cures!!" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/spider_veins.html&name=ARNICA_43694 /CURES/spider_veins.rss2 Tue, 29 Jun 10 15:48:39 -0500 [YEA] Marina from London, England writes: "I first started developing spider veins on my nose (on the sides of my nostrils and under them) at the age of 8. They became much more prominent with age and i always had to wear concealer to hide the blotchiness. HOWEVER, I recently had a nose job and had to wear a cast for a week. As the week passed I noticed that the thread veins under my nose (where there was no cast) had considerably diminished, as if they had 'moved up'. Today I got the cast taken off after a week and the veins that were at the sides of my nostrils have COMPLETELY gone despite 15 years of trying to get rid of them through creams and such. So I am not certain what exactly allowed for this to happen but I wouldn't be surprised if it was the Arnica montana homeopathy that I've been taking before and post operation as it thins the blood. So i'm guessing that the arnica and pressure from the cast must have made the blood flow back through my veins over time. Hence they also might come back =S.. but i'm going to take great preventative care of my veins from now on through diet and protection form the external environment like the sun. So this is exactly what I was prescribed.. Arnica montana 5ch: 3 x 3 (times a day) for 10 days before the operation.. Arnica montana 9ch 3 x 4 times a day every 3 hours. Advice when taking homeopathy --- 1) Do not touch it with fingers as it reduces its efficacity automatically.. 2) Do not swallow or suck it.. let it melt slowly underneath your tongue so that the body absorbs it efficiently... 3) Do not eat or drink anything within 15 minutes before or after ingesting it. You can ask your pharmacist for advice about this." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/spider_veins.html&name=HYDROGENPEROXIDE_21628 /CURES/spider_veins.rss3 Sun, 25 Jan 09 00:00:00 -0600 [QUESTION] Tina from Singapore, Singapore writes: "am curious about the Hydrogen Peroxide for treatment of Varicose veins.

Today I decided to be brave and try the inhalation method...I did two different breaths about 20 minutes apart, 4-5 squirts for each, and then laid down for a nap. I slept for an hour and a half and didn\'t realize I had even fallen asleep until I woke up and saw the time. I don\'t even feel that good when I taken melatonin at night. And I woke up with lots of energy. I am also doing the apple cider vinegar remedy so my body is quite \'tingly,\' and I\'m getting headaches...but these are all signs of detoxification as I have done the Master Cleanse before for ten days and had very similar side effects. The ACV will actually take care of detox headaches if mixed with the baking soda and taken on an empty stomach." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/spider_veins.html&name=HYDROGENPEROXIDE_2554 /CURES/spider_veins.rss5 Sun, 18 Mar 07 00:00:00 -0500 [YEA] Dana from Fort Worth, Texas writes: "Get this! I took a bath in hydrogen perixide and it made my SPIDER VIENS in my legs way less noticable!!! At first I thought it was the ACV i\'d been taking, but after a week i noticed my viens back again. So I took another h202 bath (added 1 pt of 3% from store) and my legs are beautifull again!! I don\'t know how long it lasts, but temporarily it works!! I am so excited!" http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/CURES/spider_veins.html&name=VITAMINCANDVITAMINE_2558 /CURES/spider_veins.rss6 Ted from Bangkok, Thailand writes: "Usually taking plenty of vitamin C sodium ascorbate, such as 1000 mg two times per day along with the baking soda at 1/2 teaspoon taken twice a day, and vitamin E 400 I.U./day if taken for about a month should help with the spider veins. Spider vein at least from my point of view is that the body\'s is in oxidation state and growth is not normal from lack of mineral such as magnesium and zinc also. Therefore antioxidants and mineral supplements should help. I have seen people being helped by this. People who fly frequently or are on the road, or standing too long, can also have this problem too."
