Not really hon no.
Certain things make them more likely but ultimately if you are going to get them you probably will whatever you do.
Moreover, most surgeons generally agree that all varicose veins recur at some point even if you have surgery for them.
It is a condition perculiar to homo sapiens, although our bipedal structure is often blamed, primates generally do not get varicose veins.
What increases your risk?
Being a woman, having children, yes okay a family history does play a role, or any previous history of DVT.
Ultimately the correlation between symptoms attributed to varicose veins and relief resulting from surgery is very poor indeed (large studies such as the Edinburgh vein study found the only symptom imporved by surgery was itching; smaller centres have implied some prevention of ulcer recurrence may result from vein surgery if you have venous ulcers but there is no evidence that it expedites ulcer healing).

Ultimately people usually seek surgery for cosmetic reasons but try and justify it with reports of symptoms they associate with them. If you are considering surgery a trial of grade II compression hosiery is warranted first since a failure of symptoms to improve with this measure implies they will not improve with surgery either.

Surgery can be disfiguring and has risks which, although usually minor, one coule argue are hard to justify if the consequences of not operating are hardly life or limb threatening.

It's not any easy problem.
Good luck
