Yes but.: Veinwave like veingogh and ellman microneedle are radio frequency techniques to treat very small caliber veins. They treat only these veins and nothing more. If you have other types of veins such as reticular or varicose veins then you should have a venous evaluation by a vein specialist to look for a source of your vein problem.
