November 14, 2016. Middletown, NJ. New Jersey Vein and Laser Center releases a new article in which they try to dispel a number of myths that the general public believes about vein disease and vein doctors. These Jersey Shore vein doctors feel that such an article is necessary because statistically 50% of people over the age of 50 have some form of vein disease, but only a tiny fraction of those people actually seek treatment.

According to Dr Owano Pennycooke, medical director of this noted Jersey Shore vein treatment center, "Over the years, we have noticed that many of our patients believe in myths about what vein doctors do. They believe that we only treat vein disease, and aren't concerned about our patients' overall health. Or they've heard stories about how fast treatments are these days, and they're worried that their vein doctors won't spend enough time with them. Still others are afraid that treatments are painful, so they avoid seeking treatment." None of these myths are true.

This Jersey Shore vein removal specialist believes that if the public is made more aware of the truth about modern vein doctors, they will be more likely to seek venous health screenings, and thus not become one of the millions of Americans who have vein disease but are afraid to seek treatment because of the myths they've come to believe in.

Varicose Vein Treatment Options
With more than 30 million American adults suffering from varicose and spider veins, vein disease is a common issue. Varicose veins (large, twisting, blue or red veins that may stand out from the skin’s surface) and spider veins (smaller, web-like vein that appear on the surface of the skin) are an embarrassing and potentially painful issue. Vein disease strikes both genders, although women are more likely to experience this problem than men.


No matter a patient’s age or gender, there are a number of safe, minimally invasive, and virtually pain free treatment options available. Techniques such as microphlebectomy, radiofrequency ablation, and sclerotherapy help improve the legs’ health and aesthetics by eliminating or removing spider and varicose veins. Minimally invasive vein treatments are effective and do not expose patients to a high risk of scarring or a lengthy recovery period
