    Varicose veins
    :) Hello, Does anyone have any recommended treatments for varicose veins in a 25 year old female? This is a very young age to suffer from them and I wondered if their appearance was reversible?

    Thanks.

    I here laser therapy is good for varicose veins. It reduces their appearance but I don't know if it guarantees they won't come back. If they are spiders veins then that is not really a big deal.

    My Mom had that laser therapy done and it worked well for her, but they don't recommend getting it until you are older and past child bearing age... simply because new ones can form. Not to mention you have to wear these hideous tight things on your legs for weeks... lol

    I have them from my pregnancies, and I haven't found a single thing that works on them yet. Good luck.

Hi, it all started in the summer when I had extreme stress levels. I've been to the optician but she said there was nothing wrong. However, veins are now prominent in both my eyes when they never used to be; they appeared one morning when I woke up in the summer. Also, I get little black spots...
