Has anyone had varicose veins removed?

I figure that while I'm going down this self improvement path, I might as well address these pesky veins as well. They're not the worst I've seen, and I don't plan on showing a lotta leg ever (because my legs will NEVER be great), but if I could de-vein myself without a lot of trouble I'd definitely do it. How long is recovery? Is it something to avoid doing during the summer? Do they look bad for a while? Does insurance cover this? Thx!
