No - cocoa butter helps the skin, but spider veins are under the surface of the skin.
What are spider veins? What are varicose veins?
Spider veins are also known as broken capillaries. Spider veins are tiny blood vessels no more than 2 mm in diameter that may appear on the face, legs and ankles. They are bluish, purple or red and often form a web-like netting just below the skin’s surface. Spider veins are generally just an unattractive nuisance, although when they become large they can cause heaviness in the legs, night cramps and itching.
For both varicose and spider veins, heredity is the main cause. The risk of developing these leg vein problems increases for women who are pregnant or using birth control pills because hormones such as estrogen can further weaken vein walls. Obesity and lack of exercise which weaken the system of leg veins are also factors. The risk of developing varicose veins increases with age for both men and women.
Non-surgical options include sclerotherapy, a painless way to get rid of these vein problems by injecting a chemical into the affected vein to close it. Laser therapy can also be used to collapse small veins in the face and legs. Duplex-guided sclerotherapy is used to access veins in areas that are difficult to reach such as in the knee and groin. Surgical methods include in-office mini-phlebectomy where small sections of the damaged vein are removed through an almost invisible incision. For ambulatory surgery, there is a procedure called ligation and stripping to treat the affected main leg vein and valve. Both non-surgical and surgical treatments are often combined for the best results.

It has been proven that the products that r allowed to b sold r not helpful in any way for stretch marks or spider veins.Spider v's r broken vessels there fore there is no fixing except for laser surgery or the other thing which they stick a needle in u n put some stuff in your skin to stop the blood flow from entering the broken vessel area.Good luck n don't buy the products cuz your wasting your money.The only time any of those creams help is when u haven't got sv or stretch m n r trying to prevent them.There is absolutely nothing that helps.Bye 4 now and have a wonderful wkend.

After 10 years of struggling with all sorts of creams and pills to treat this embarrassing problem I was able to get rid of my varicose veins by using natural healing methods and alternative herbal home remedies.
Read Diane Thompson's "Varicose Veins Secrets" (also available in electronic format at: http://www.varicoseveinscure.org ). By following this guide book I was able to eradicate my varicose veins pretty fast. God bless!

No... Spider veins are internal not external.
Try starting baby aspirin therapy. Ask your doctor how much and how frequently first though...

I don't believe so. I think you have to have those surgically removed. Cocoa butter is more for stretch marks.
