Treatment for Prominent or Painful Foot Veins
Bulging or visible veins in the feet can be both uncomfortable and cosmetically frustrating. Foot veins often become more prominent with age, especially for those who stand for long periods or have a history of vein issues. Fortunately, there are safe and effective treatments available to relieve discomfort and improve the appearance of your feet.
Why Foot Veins Appear—and When to Treat Them
The skin on the feet is naturally thin, which can make veins more visible. Over time, factors like genetics, aging, prolonged standing, or previous vein treatments can cause these veins to become enlarged. While some foot veins are purely cosmetic, others may cause pain, swelling, or irritation—making treatment a smart option for both comfort and confidence.
Treatment Options May Include:
- Sclerotherapy: An injectable solution that causes small veins to collapse and fade.
- Phlebectomy: Tiny incisions are used to remove larger, bulging surface veins.
- VeinGogh: Ideal for treating fine, delicate veins in sensitive areas.
