Suffer no more from unsightly varicose veins or spider veins which cause leg swelling, aches, tiredness, and embarrassment.
Sclerotherapy:
This is a treatment for cosmetic and functional vein disorders. This procedure is an injection of a sclerosing solution into the veins.
Deep veins are buried beneath skin, muscle, and bone and cannot be seen except during surgery. The superficial veins are the ones you can see just under the skin.
The perforator veins connect the two systems.
Reticular veins are incompetent superficial veins.
Varicose veins are superficial veins, which are not only incompetent, but are swollen, elongated.
The most fundamental problems must be fixed first and these are:
· Incompetent deep veins
· Incompetent perforator veins
· Incompetent superficial veins
· Spider veins
Varicose Vein Laser Surgery:
This procedure is used to treat spider veins on the face and recently proved to work on legs too. This procedure works by sending strong bursts of light onto the vein that makes the vein slowly fade and disappear. There are no needles or incisions, making the procedure less painful if at all, and more effective with fewer side effects.
