Varicose veins are weakened veins that are twisted and enlarged in the legs, often making them painful and visible with the naked eye. Spider veins are known as a mild variation of varicose veins, which tend to create more of a web-like, red or purple appearance, but are often a symptom of underlying vein disease. Vein disease is progressive, meaning it can (and very often does) get worse over time if left untreated. Though very common, vein disease is wildly misunderstood: many symptoms, though painful and isolating, are written off as "just another part of ageing." It's important to remember that you are NOT alone. Vein disease affects 1/2 women and 1/3 men. Treatment is covered by insurance, even though some symptoms are seemingly cosmetic.
Some symptoms to keep an eye out for include (but are not limited to):
Dark blue or purple veins which can be seen through the skin
Veins that appear twisted or bulging like they are
Heavy sensations in your legs
Restless legs (especially if the sensation negatively impacts your sleep)
Throbbing of the leg, swelling or cramping of muscles
Pain following prolonged sitting or standing
Itchiness around your veins' sides
Discoloration of the skin around the veins
There are many risk factors and predispositions for vein disease: pregnancy, smoking, obesity, sedentary or over-active (strenuous) lifestyles, high blood pressure, diabetes, and genetics all play a role in an individual's likelihood to develop vein disease. Our team of board-certified vein doctors are well versed in symptoms, and are ready to handcraft a custom care plan to provide relief from pain.
When do I need to worry about varicose veins?
Varicose veins are not just cosmetic - since they are a sign of poor leg circulation, they are a medical condition that a board-certified vein specialist should evaluate. If your symptoms affect daily activities, the veins are red, tender when you press them, they bleed easily, or if you experience swelling, heaviness or itchy veins or discoloration of the skin, treatment may be recommended.
Our vein doctors can evaluate and diagnose the severity of your varicose veins, as well as find the best treatment option for your particular case.
Some individuals wonder if varicose veins can be treated at home. Walking, leg elevation, a healthy diet, avoiding long sitting or standing periods and wearing compression stockings can help relieve symptoms of varicose veins and venous insufficiency on a temporary basis, the disease is progressive and worsens over time, so early treatment is often recommended.
We offer many FDA-approved vein treatments in our NY, NJ, and MI clinics.

Endovenous Laser Ablation

VenaSeal (our newest treatment option!)
excel V+ Laser
Microphlebectomy
