Not only can the results of Vein Disease be unsightly and painful, but the condition, if left untreated, can lead to health problems such as swelling, hyperpigmentation (skin darkening), venous ulcers, deep vein thrombosis (blood clots) and even death.
Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) is a procedure that uses a laser beam light to eliminate or reduce varicose veins. The surgery closes and shrinks the vein and causes scar tissue within the vessel. This seals off the malfunctioning vein causing the blood to correctly flow through healthy veins instead.
Sclerotherapy is a procedure used to treat small varicose and spider veins. An irritant solution is injected directly into the vein, causing the lining of the blood vessel to stick together.
