Fact: Modern Interventional Radiology (IR) treatments are designed to be as comfortable as possible. Most procedures are performed under local anesthesia through a tiny incision, no stitches, no hospital stay.

Patients often walk out the same day and return to normal activities within 24 hours. Instead of weeks of recovery, you get lasting relief with minimal downtime.

Don't let fear keep you from healthier, lighter legs. Visit https://vcspecialists.com/vein-treatment-options/ to learn more about minimally invasive varicose and spider vein treatments.

RFA is a minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. Using gentle heat from radio waves, an interventional radiologist closes off the unhealthy vein so blood naturally reroutes to healthier ones.

- Minimally invasive, no stitches
- Performed under local anesthesia
- Quick recovery, most people return to normal activities the next day

The result? Less pain, less swelling, and healthier-looking legs all without major surgery.

The name may sound complicated, but the treatment is small, safe, and effective.

Venous insufficiency occurs when the valves in the leg veins fail to function properly, making it difficult for blood to flow back to the heart. Over time, this can cause uncomfortable symptoms and, if untreated, lead to more serious complications.

Signs and symptoms to watch for include:
-Swelling in the ankles or lower legs
-Aching, throbbing, or heaviness in the legs
-Restless legs or night cramps
-Skin discoloration, especially around the ankles
-Varicose veins or clusters of spider veins

Early detection matters! If you notice any of the symptoms above, give us a call to schedule a consultation: (863) 577-0269

Sclerotherapy is one of the most common treatments for spider veins and small varicose veins. Here’s what you can expect during the process:

✅ Quick Procedure – The treatment usually takes 15-45 minutes and is done right in the office.
✅ Minimal Discomfort – A fine needle delivers a solution into the vein, causing it to collapse and fade over time. Most patients describe it as a mild sting or cramp.
✅ No Downtime – You can walk immediately afterward and return to normal activities the same day.
✅ Gradual Results – Veins begin to fade within a few weeks, with continued improvement over several months.

Endovenous Laser Therapy treats larger varicose veins from the inside out. A thin laser fiber is guided into the vein, where it delivers heat energy to close the diseased vein. Blood naturally reroutes to healthier veins, improving circulation.

Benefits:
Outpatient procedure
Local anesthesia only
Quick recovery, with most patients resuming daily activities the same day

EVLT is a well-established, FDA-approved treatment for varicose veins.

Not quite! While they both involve unhealthy veins, spider veins are small, web-like lines that usually appear on the legs or face. Varicose veins are larger, bulging, and often cause aching, heaviness, or swelling.

Both conditions are treatable—and the earlier you address them, the better the outcome.

That's right, the study of veins and blood vessels dates all the way back to ancient Egypt!

Over 3,000 years ago, Egyptian physicians recognized the importance of blood flow in the human body, a discovery that predated modern medicine. They believed that "channels" carried not just blood, but also air and life throughout the body.

While their understanding wasn't perfect, it laid the foundation for what we now know as vascular medicine.

The more we learn about our veins, the better we can protect our health today.

While there are factors like genetics that can't be avoided, there are ways to reduce the risk of developing spider veins.

✔ Regular exercise
✔ Maintain a healthy weight
✔ Avoid prolonged sitting or standing
✔ Limit alcohol consumption

These factors are easily within your control, and greatly reduce your risk.

If you do develop spider veins, don't panic. They're not dangerous and don't usually cause symptoms.

According to the Chicago Vein Institute, the prevalence of varicose veins is greater in women (55%) compared to men (45%).

For some, they can be very painful, and for others, there may be no symptoms at all. Varicose veins might also be a sign of a more serious venous issue like deep-vein thrombosis and blood clots.

If you're concerned about your varicose veins, give us a call to set up a consult: (863) 577-0269

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) affects millions, but many don't even know they have it. Left untreated, it can lead to serious health complications, including stroke, heart attack, or limb loss.

Know the signs:
✔ Leg pain while walking that improves with rest
✔ Numbness or weakness in the legs
✔ Slow-healing wounds on feet or toes
✔ Coldness in one leg or foot

Early detection saves lives. Talk to your doctor if you're at risk, especially if you have diabetes, smoke, or have high blood pressure.

Good news—many vein treatments are covered by insurance, especially if you're experiencing symptoms like pain, swelling, or skin changes. Coverage often depends on the severity of your condition and whether the treatment is considered medically necessary.

✨ Tip: A simple ultrasound can help determine if your vein issues qualify.
