Varicose veins and vein surgery: experiences?

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone here has actually gone through with radiofrequency ablation for varicose veins. I’ve been reading up on it lately, and apparently, it’s supposed to be this newer alternative to the old-school surgical route. I guess I'm just trying to figure out if it's actually less painful or if it's genuinely better than a standard operation. Does anyone know where a decent clinic might offer this in the States, and what kind of out-of-pocket costs we're looking at? If anyone has any experience with vein treatments, maybe shoot me a message. Best regards.

Mary, please make sure you read the 'REQUIRED' section carefully; thank you. I think once you go through it, the errors will become clear to you, though keep in mind this PDF focuses more on gynecological health rather than general wellness.
