GBear: Varicosities are veins that have stretched beyond their capacity and the valves are damaged. There is no "cream" that will make them go away. HOWEVER, there are new techniques available. You can have the veins injected and they will disappear. The blood will re-route itself (isn't the body amazing?). There are also laser options that will shrink the vein and basically do the same thing. Call a vascular specialist. The procedures don't take long at all and are well worth the time and the money. Varicosities can be very dangerous. Godloveya.

No - the only way to get rid of them is to have surgery.
