Best Treatment for Blue Leg Veins?

I have very visible normal (not varicose) blue veins running up the front of both calves. Can these be treated and what would the best treatment be? Thank you.

A: Blue leg veins

For the blue vessels on the calves I recommend a Sclerotherapy treatment.  This involves injecting a solution into the vessels that causes the vein to collapse and then resolve.  Lasers just do not have the power to treat the larger veins and surgical stripping is just to invasive for that size.
