Hi. I wanted to know if anyone out here has undergone any procedures for the elimination of reticular veins and, if so, what kind of procedure was it, what are you impressions of the procedure and its results and, if you would recommend the procedure, who did it?

Okay, my vascular surgeon is willing to perform cosmetic procedures to eliminate my reticular veins. It seems as though sclerotherapy is an option. I am inquiring about endovascular lasers as another option.

Please note: For those who are not aware an endovascular laser involves the insertion of a laser fiber into the vein as opposed to cutaneous lasers which are non-invasive and act on the skin.
