Our Treatments
Radiofrequency Ablation (ClosureFastTM)
Varithena Ablation
Varithena ablation is a quick, minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. A foam medication is injected into the vein, causing it to close and redirect blood to healthier veins. It helps reduce pain, swelling, and the appearance of varicose veins, with little downtime needed.
Micro Foam Sclerotherapy
Compounded Sclerotherapy
Frequently Asked Questions
What are Varicose Veins? What are Spider Veins?
In your leg, you have two sets of veins. They are called deep veins and superficial veins.
Deep veins are in the deeper part of the leg where the muscles are, and superficial veins are right under the skin.
In healthy legs, the blood would circulate from the feet towards the heart in both sets of veins.
When someone has a venous insufficiency the blood will actually go up the deep veins and then go backwards into the superficial vein.
The blood will start pooling in the superficial veins.
Since the superficial veins are closest to the skin, they will start to bulge and create varicose veins. They are often bluish or purple in color.
Spider Veins are essentially a smaller version of varicose veins. They are red, purple, and blue vessels that are also twisted and turning. They are most often seen on the legs, chest, or face.
Do Varicose Veins ALWAYS Show Physical Symptoms?
No. Varicose veins can occur deeper in the leg, where one can’t see them. Varicose veins are classified under the spectrum of venous insufficiency disease.
Venous insufficiency disease causes leg discomfort, swelling of the ankles and leg, itching, and weariness. Other signs and symptoms may be prickling, cramping, aching, and heaviness of the lower limbs after prolonged standing.
Keep an eye out for these symptoms besides simply visible veins.
Can I Get Rid of Varicose Veins Naturally?
In short, no. Exercise and compression stockings may help reduce some of the symptoms of varicose veins, but usually only medical treatment can effectively get rid of a varicose vein.
What Happens If I Don’t Treat Varicose Veins?
Untreated varicose veins can worsen, leading to rashes, sores, bleeding, or blood clots. In rare cases, they may cause deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or a life-threatening pulmonary embolism.
