What Is the Best Treatment for Varicose Veins?
VenaSeal™
- Uses a medical adhesive to close an affected superficial vein
- Redirects blood flow through healthier veins
- Typically allows a relatively quick return to normal activities
Escleroterapia
- Uses an injectable solution to close targeted veins
- Commonly used for spider veins and certain smaller varicose veins
- Treated veins gradually fade over time
Ablación por radiofrecuencia (ARF)
- Uses radiofrequency energy to close diseased superficial veins
- Minimally invasive, office-based procedure
- Typically performed with local anesthesia
Varithena® Foam
- Uses prescription microfoam to treat certain varicose veins
- Minimally invasive treatment without large surgical incisions
- May be recommended based on the location and characteristics of the affected veins
When Should I Seek Varicose Vein Treatment?
Varicose veins are more than a cosmetic concern and can cause medical problems if left untreated. See a specialist if you notice:
- Painful, swollen or throbbing veins
- Heaviness or aching in the legs
- Itching, burning or skin irritation near the veins
- Skin discoloration, ulcers or bleeding veins
We offer in-office diagnostics, including ultrasound imaging, so you can get answers in one convenient visit.
Can You Get Rid of Varicose Veins Naturally?
Healthy habits can ease symptoms and lower your risk of new varicose veins:
- Elevate your legs to reduce swelling
- Exercise regularly to improve circulation
- Eat a vein-friendly, high-fiber diet
- Avoid sitting or standing for long periods
- Wear compression stockings
- Maintain a healthy weight
These steps will not remove varicose veins that have already formed. For permanent removal, medical treatments such as VenaSeal™ and sclerotherapy work best.
What Are Varicose Veins and What Causes Them?
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that develop when vein valves weaken or are damaged and blood pools. They often look bluish or purple and can cause discomfort, swelling and circulation problems.
Common risk factors include:
- Genetics and family history
- Aging
- Prolonged standing or sitting
- Hormonal changes, such as pregnancy, birth control or menopause
- Excess weight
Is There a Downside to Varicose Vein Treatment?
Treatments like VenaSeal™ and sclerotherapy are minimally invasive and effective, but you may notice minor, temporary side effects:
- Temporary redness, swelling or bruising at the treatment site
- Mild tingling or tightness in the treated vein
- Rarely, small brown spots that fade over time
Despite these minor effects, many patients are very satisfied and notice relief within weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions About Varicose Veins
How much does it cost to fix varicose veins?

Will insurance pay for varicose vein removal?
Insurance often covers medically necessary treatment, such as for pain, swelling, ulcers or bleeding. Cosmetic treatments are typically not covered. Our team can help you check your coverage.

It depends on your veins and symptoms. VenaSeal™ and sclerotherapy are two of the treatments we use most, and Dr. Rizk will recommend the best fit after your evaluation.
Is it worth getting varicose veins removed?
For many patients, yes. Treatment can relieve discomfort, improve circulation and appearance, and help prevent complications such as ulcers or blood clots.
Does walking help varicose veins?
Walking supports circulation and can ease symptoms and help prevent new varicose veins, but it will not remove veins that are already there.
