Sclerotherapy involves injecting a chemical solution directly into the varicose or spider vein. ✨🦵

Then, the solution causes the vein walls to swell, stick together, and seal shut, stopping blood flow. The intensity and consistency of this solution are adjusted according to the size of the vein being treated.

Once the vein collapses, a clot forms and is gradually reabsorbed by the body. As a result, the vein fades within a few weeks.

Although this process may sound intimidating, it is much less invasive and painful than it sounds; if you want to know more about this procedure, contact us via DM.

✨ Endovenous Laser Therapy is one of the main varicose and spider vein treatments. It can be used for cosmetic issues and to treat painful symptoms caused by varicose veins.

Venous stasis ulcers are open sores on the lower legs or ankles due to poor blood circulation from venous reflux. 🦵⚕️

These ulcers usually develop when chronic venous hypertension causes fluid to seep from the veins into the nearby tissue, resulting in tissue deterioration and ulcer formation.

They are characterized by slow-healing wounds that may persist for weeks, months, or even years if left untreated.

In the United States, over 200,000 people are diagnosed with Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). ✨🦵

A vascular surgeon may recommend anticoagulant medications, also known as blood thinners, to prevent existing clots from glowing larger and to prevent new clots from forming.

Additionally, elevating and moving the affected area can help reduce swelling and discomfort related to DVT.

Are you experiencing severe swelling, pain, or tenderness in the lower body? Schedule an appointment via DM, and we’ll provide you with top-of-the-line Deep Vein Thrombosis screenings to resolve your concerns quickly.
