It is estimated that more than 80 million Americans suffer from some form of venous disorder including varicose veins and spider veins.

Although often thought to be only a cosmetic problem, many patients have serious symptoms that can affect their health if they do not get the vein treated.

Risk factors that may lead to the development of vein problems include: family history, age, gender, previous pregnancy, hormone therapy, obesity, and any occupation that requires standing or sitting for long periods of time. These factors cause a normal vein to become dilated.

Here at the Vein Treatment Denver, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with varicose veins and spider veins for men and women. Our minimally invasive techniques provide very effective vein treatment for these conditions in a comfortable outpatient office setting and get you back into your normal routine with minimal downtime.
