Review
Summary |
Varicose and spider veins are quite common problems. While spider veins, or Telangiectasias, as it is known scientifically, may usually be only a few millimeters, varicose veins usually develop on the legs, and may be quite noticeable. However, both are related to blood vessels and veins that get overly dilated, thereby becoming enlarged and causing abnormalities. They may even possibly cause permanent damage to the valves in the veins responsible for preventing backward blood flow.
Fortunately, advancements in science and technology have allowed manufacturers to create specific products that may reduce their appearance. A-O-K Spider Vein Remuver, manufactured by Age Advantage Labs, is said to be such a product. However, it remains to be seen whether it may actually have any benefits. Therefore, we will take a look at A-O-K Spider Vein Remuver and analyze its potential strengths and weaknesses to conclude if there may be better products out there.

 | Ingredients at a Glance |
|
The official A-O-K Spider Vein Remuver website lists the complete ingredients, some of which are as follows: Aloe Gel, Glycerin, Emu Oil, Vitamin K1, Lecithin, Hyaluronic Acid, Arnica Montana, Squalene, Squalane, Cholesterol, Silk Protein, Elastin, Collagen, Allantoin, Panthenol and Orange Oil. The product is not a supplement, but is a cream that is to be “gently massaged” into the skin twice daily.

 | Ingredients in Focus |
|
We believe the question essentially boils down to whether an individual should go with topical applications, or go with supplements that get to work from within. One important thing to note about varicose veins and spider veins is that they are abnormalities with a specific cause – weakening of the valves in veins responsible for regulating the direction of the blood flow. As such, we believe topical applications may not really get to work from within and target the weakened valves.
An advantage of using a specialized supplement may be that they will contain specific ingredients, rather than plant extracts that are purportedly based on conventional wisdom. Nowadays, ingredients like Diosmin 95®, which has been used by millions of people in Europe to successfully address their varicose and spider veins, may be available in the U.S. as well. It may be a good strategy to try a product that contains such ingredients, and is also FDA-approved.

 | Website |
|
We appreciate that the manufacturer has its own website, although we would have liked it much better if the product were promoted through an exclusive website. The webpage devoted to the product lists the ingredients; however, detailed information on the effectiveness of the product seems to be missing. We find a quality product will actually be backed by numerous and positive testimonials. Some really good products will also highlight some before and after pictures.
|
 | Positives |
|
• Official and exclusive website available
|
 | Negatives |
|
• Lack of scientific evidence as of review backing up key ingredient
• Is not a supplement, but a topical application
• No online testimonials and before and after pictures as of this review
• Online buying feature unavailable on official website as of writing
• Does not have proven ingredients, like Diosmin 95®
|
 | Final Thoughts |
|
In light of all the pertinent information on varicose and spider veins discussed above, we believe that A-O-K Spider Vein Remuver may not exactly be the best choice. For one thing, the manufacturer’s official website does not even have an online buying feature. Furthermore, it may be worth pondering over that specialized supplements with ingredients known to have assisted many others, as opposed to cosmetic topical applications, may be worth a trial.
We believe that it may be possible to banish varicose and spider veins. A careful examination of the supplements available on the market will probably be a good way to begin taking the steps. However, we believe it behooves a potential customer to ensure the supplement’s safety and efficacy. Standards like FDA approval, wide, over-the-counter availability and pharmaceutical grade quality may be used to ensure product guarantee.
