Vein problems that till recently were treated with massage and stockings have been receiving surgical treatments for long term solution and to get rid of pain and numbness. These treatments are more common among women than men and since 2000 the number of people undergoing varicose vein surgeries has gone up by several thousands. The overall cost of vein treatment varies between locations and also depends on the doctor’s experience. The general cost is between two to three hundred for treatment in both legs to several hundred dollars for other parts of the body. Usually laser vein treatments are more expensive than sclerotherapy.
