Vitamin K Cream has become a common and effective treatment for spider veins and bruises.  It helps coagulate seeping blood as well as strengthen vein and capillary walls making it a key ingredient for skin care developed for bruising or bulging veins.

Here are some information regarding common uses and benefits and why creams containing this ingredient are so sought after by dermatologists and cosmetologists everywhere - especially as a remedy or treatment for facial spider veins and deep tissue bruises.

What Does Vitamin K Do?

A fat soluble substance that is proven to help the blood clot, it pulls calcium from the bloodstream allowing the proper proteins to bind together to form a microscopic net that prevents blood flow.  Topical applications and  creams allow you to isolate this clotting ability to a specific area where excessive blood flow is causing an unsightly problem such as bruising and spider veins.

How It Helps?

Spider vein and bruise treatments and  creams are not instant fixes.  It takes the body time to absorb and begin properly decreasing the blood flow to the affected areas.  Studies have shown that a cream with a minimum of a 1% concentration solution will help reduce the appearance of bruising and spider veins with extended, consistent use.  Typically results require using a Vitamin K cream twice per day for at least two or three months.  Results are expectedly a bit individual but the longer and more religiously the creams are used, the better the results.

The topical creams most effective for reducing redness, broken capillaries, spider veining and bruising are those that contain Vitamin K in combination with other ingredients known to heal and maintain healthy skin. In addition to reducing the external symptoms, these products also help to strengthen the walls or veins and capillaries to help prevent the problems from reoccurring.

Redness and spider veins are caused by various degrees of damage to veins and capillaries allowing blood to leak or pool under the skin.  While the body will, in time, repair the damage to the blood vessels, using a Vitamin K cream will give the body a natural boost to speed up this process.
