Review
Summary |
Varicose Relief Cream by BHI is a topical application that is said to be “Safe, Effective and Natural.” However, we believe the cream may not really do much to target varicose and spider veins, which appear due to weak veins that lack sufficient active neuromediators. Appearance of spider veins usually causes a number of untoward psychological distress; many of us with such problems may even hesitate to go to the beach or to swimming pools.
Fortunately, advancements in science and technology have allowed a detailed analysis of the causes and effects of varicose and spider veins. People get such veins because of a specific weakness of the vein walls and valves; as a result of the weakness, blood may begin to flow backwards, thereby causing the rather ugly looking veins. We will take a look at Varicose Relief Cream to conclude whether it may do anything to reduce the appearance of varicose and spider veins.

 | Ingredients at a Glance |
|
Unfortunately, there appears to be no official website for Varicose Relief Cream at this time. As of this review, only a couple of retail stores seem to carry the product, and none of them care to list the ingredients. As per one store, the formula contains at least Hamamelis Virginiana, which is commonly known as Witch Hazel. Apart from this ingredient, it is not clear whether the formula includes any other active element. We believe such lack of information may speak volumes about the product’s efficacy or popularity.

 | Ingredients in Focus |
|
Witch Hazel seems to be yet another natural ingredient that is surrounded by much hype. Witch Hazel is a genus of four species of flowering plants, described as shrubs or small trees that may grow up to around 3 to 8 meters tall. While two of its species may be found in North America, the other two may be found in Japan and China. The bark and the leaves of the shrub are described as an astringent, and may have been used medicinally for various purposes.
While using topical creams may provide some immediate and short-term relief, they may not do anything to target the problem from within. Opposed to such topical applications will be supplements that are meant to be ingested. An advantage of using such supplements for the relief of varicose and spider veins is that they get to work right at the root of the problem: the veins.

 | Website |
|
We believe a good way to judge the success of a product is to find out if it is promoted through its own exclusive and official website. Such websites also ensure a manufacturer’s customer service commitments. We find a good product website will have lots of customer testimonials and in-depth product information. Some excellent products will have detailed information on its key ingredients. Furthermore, a good website will be easily navigable.

 | Final Thoughts |
|
In the end, we remain skeptical that the cream may do much to reduce spider veins. For one thing, its ingredients are not even clear. Another thing to consider for those of us wishing to get rid of our varicose and spider veins is the fact that the product is not advertised to reduce their appearance.
Therefore, an alternative may be to research other products. Actually, there already are some supplements created specifically to reduce the appearance of varicose and spider veins. We find a trustworthy and safe product will be FDA-approved and guaranteed to work. Moreover, products with proven track records will have advanced and approved ingredients. For instance, products with ingredients like Diosmin 95® that have undergone numerous clinical studies may be worth trying.
