SPIDER/VARICOSE VEINS
Varicose veins and spider veins are swollen, twisted veins that usually appear on the legs. Women are more likely to have varicose veins and spider veins. Pregnancy, older age, and obesity can increase your risk of varicose veins and spider veins. Varicose veins and spider veins are often painless and do not usually cause health problems. However, we can have them removed, by sclerotherapy (injection) or by Laser treatment.

BENEFITS OF SCLEROTHERAPY:
1. You’ll Suffer Less Pain
If your varicose veins are causing you pain or discomfort, opting for treatment can eliminate that pain. At the beginning of the procedure, your vein specialist will perform an ultrasound of the affected areas in order to map out all your veins.
This will allow them to eliminate varicose veins at the source, not just those that are visible through your skin, addressing the underlying issues that have caused your condition.
2. Your Appearance Will Improve
Many people who experience varicose veins also experience a loss of self confidence when showing off their legs. With customized varicose vein treatment, you’ll be able to confidently wear shorts, dresses, or skirts without worrying about your appearance.
3. You Can Live a More Active Lifestyle
In many cases, varicose veins cause swelling that interferes with normal movement. This means that people who would otherwise be active become less mobile due to this condition. Having your varicose veins treated will get rid of your swelling and allow you to get back to a more active, healthy, and mobile lifestyle.
4. You’ll Get Better Sleep
Some people who suffer from venous disease can experience night-time discomfort. This includes pain, itching, or even restlessness in the legs. By visiting a vein specialist for treatment, you may be able to alleviate such symptoms and get a better night’s rest.
