Most patients who visit our vein clinic are under the false impression that varicose vein treatments are surgical, complicated, or time-intensive. None of that is accurate — minimally invasive varicose vein treatments are non-surgical, painless, safe, and conclude within an hour. We want to correct the misconceptions about varicose vein treatments by explaining our entire vein care process. This article provides a step-by-step overview of our personalized vein care process, from the initial consultation to the recovery.

Most vein diseases and vein problems, such as spider veins, varicose veins, leg swelling, throbbing leg veins, restless legs syndrome, etc., are caused by underlying chronic venous insufficiency. Venous insufficiency is a medical condition wherein the collapse of your vein valves makes blood accumulate in your leg veins. Continued blood accumulation eventually leads to several vein problems.

Unfortunately, far too many vein centers and vein specialists treat the superficial symptoms of vein disease without diagnosing the root cause. Patients often suffer from recurrence of spider veins and varicose veins because the underlying vein disease hasn’t been treated. At Vein Treatment Clinic, our vein specialists carefully examine your leg veins to diagnose the root cause of your vein problems before curating a treatment plan.

During your initial consultation, our vein doctors examine your vein problems to look for signs and symptoms of vein disease. They study your medical history to look for risk factors. And finally, they use the latest vascular imaging tests (like Duplex Ultrasound) to visualize the blood flow in your leg veins. The vascular imaging tests conclusively reveal the diseased saphenous vein responsible for your vein problems.

If you have underlying vein disease, we start with minimally invasive varicose vein treatments that neutralize the diseased saphenous vein, such as radiofrequency ablation, endovenous laser ablation, or VenaSeal. If you don’t have underlying vein disease, we can skip over this step and move to the next.

During radiofrequency ablation and endovenous laser ablation, the vein specialists create an incision on your skin’s surface to insert a catheter or laser fiber. The catheter or endovenous laser is guided (under vascular imaging) into the diseased saphenous vein, where they are activated. The resultant thermal energy and laser energy collapse the diseased vein, rerouting the accumulated blood to healthier veins.

During VenaSeal, the vein doctor simply injects a medical-grade adhesive into the problematic saphenous vein. The vein glue fuses the saphenous vein’s walls, turning it into scar tissue that eventually gets absorbed by the body. Meanwhile, the accumulated blood flows to healthier leg veins, restoring smooth blood circulation to the heart.

If you don’t have underlying vein disease, or after the primary vein treatment, we remove the visible spider veins and varicose veins on your legs. Without underlying vein disease, the visible leg veins are essentially harmless, but most patients prefer to get them removed to restore their leg’s former beauty.

Sclerotherapy is the best minimally invasive treatment for spider veins. The vein doctor injects a sclerosant solution into the spider veins, hardening and fusing their vein walls. The spider veins turn into scar tissues that eventually get absorbed by the body, fading away from your legs. The procedure concludes within 30 minutes, and you can resume all your daily activities immediately.

After the treatment, we discuss some post-treatment recovery guidelines, and you can resume all your daily activities.
