Connie K. Third Grade Teacher

Nineteen years ago, Connie had her left leg surgically stripped and said, "I was in the hospital for a week, wrapped and bandaged, then off my feet for another three weeks." Connie had her right leg vein treated with the Closure procedure. "I experienced no pain afterwards. I found that incredible in comparison with my previous experience. I had no scarring. It's incredible, absolutely incredible. I'm looking forward to wearing a skirt this summer."

Brad G. Marketing Director

Over the last three to four years Brad experienced discomfort in his left leg, including aching, swelling, itching, hair loss, skin discolorations and sores. Brad had the Closure procedure done in December. "I can say the procedure was nearly painless. I walked out of the office and went Christmas shopping the next day. Most dramatically, my lower leg stopped swelling even after a full day on my feet. Now about twelve weeks later, the skin discolorations and vein protrusions have almost vanished and the hair has grown back where before there was none. I can hardly tell that I ever had a vein problem."
