Help...Spider Veins

What about Nyce Legs as a cover up?

I got my first can of it through the post today but I haven't tried it out yet. It's supposed to cover up spider veins and any other blemishes. I saw it advertised on one of the shopping channels and it really did make the model's legs look smooth and tanned.

Had anyone actually tried it out?

I actually went to my derm and did this last october. I didnt get it done on my legs. The derm told me the most common areas is the legs, breasts, and pelvic region. It was $150 a session, and I think I need one more session to get rid of it. It was painful, but bearable. I never got a chance to go back for my second session because it does leave you bruised for a little over a week. I'll probally go back in the winter time again when you're more covered up anyways. With the legs, there are things to consider. Thrombosis (blood clot) and sometimes it just doesn't work on some people so you might not even see a difference.
Heres the doctor I went to and her website. The procedure is called sclerotherapy.

my mom and my sister has this problem. most severe on my sister though. she is very pale, so they are very noticeble. but my mom has tried saltwater-injections into the larger ones on her legs. my sister is 18 and she had them different places on her body, thighs and shoulders. and even a few on her face and breasts. she has had lacer done on her shoulders mostly and a bit on thighs and it looks sooo great. they were really noticeble before but now she can wear strappy dresses without being sad about her shoulders. shes had a bit of lacer and some saltwater-injections on her thighs too, to get rid of the worst ones. shes so happy about the results, and i would recommend this to anyone whos having this problem and is feeling sad and unattractive because of it!

I have spider veins too I can usually tan over them, maybe you can try a sunless tan or something I don't know? lol.

its true if you tan, they will not be as noticeable. but some girls are so pale that they cant tan (they get red) or just like the pale look - just like my sister. and then theres nothing else to do than get some lacers done.

Around how much is the laser treatment for these veins

Like a few people above said, I'm not aware of any creams that will hide spider veins. Mostly because they are swollen blood vessels, and I'm not sure if a cream could be that effective. I'm sure there's probably something marketed towards that, I'm just unaware. The most permanent and effective solution though would probably be laser vein therapy or some other procedure specifically for this. They have several of these. Here's some info on laser vein therapy.
