We always diagnose the root cause of spider veins and varicose veins
Spider veins are dense clusters of blood vessels visible just underneath the skin’s surface. Varicose veins are bulging veins that protrude out from the skin’s surface, looking like a mass of tangled, twisted, and knotted ropes. Spider veins and varicose veins are essentially dilated blood vessels with excess blood. It’s assumed that spider veins and varicose veins are harmless and that vein treatments are cosmetic, but that’s incorrect.
Spider veins are usually harmless, but spider veins and varicose veins are often caused by underlying chronic venous insufficiency. Venous insufficiency is a medical condition wherein the collapse of vein valves leads to the accumulation of blood in leg veins, eventually leading to vascular dilation and the formation of spider veins and varicose veins. As such, treating spider veins and varicose veins increases the risk of recurrence.
Unfortunately, most vein clinics and medical centers treat spider veins and varicose veins without addressing the root cause, so the vein problems reappear later. Our vein doctors always diagnose the root cause of your vein problems. They examine your leg veins, review your medical history, and discuss your symptoms to curate the ideal minimally invasive vein treatment plan. As such, we only provide comprehensive and personalized vein treatments that ensure long-lasting results.
We offer the latest minimally invasive varicose vein treatments
Besides focusing on comprehensive vein care, we also provide minimally invasive spider vein and varicose vein treatments instead of vascular surgeries. Surgical procedures, such as vein ligation, vein stripping, and venous bypass surgery, increase the risk of complications, and they involve hospitalization, general anesthesia, and downtime. Minimally invasive spider vein and varicose vein treatments are safe, effective, and convenient, and they conclude within an hour with no downtime.
We select the ideal minimally invasive vein treatments based on your unique symptoms, goals, diagnosis, and insurance coverage options. If you have chronic venous insufficiency, we recommend radiofrequency ablation, endovenous laser ablation, or venaseal. If you don’t have vein disease or after the primary vein treatment, we recommend ambulatory phlebectomy and sclerotherapy. Below, we provide a brief overview of your vein treatment options.
Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency ablation is the most popular minimally invasive procedure for chronic venous insufficiency. The vein doctor makes a small incision on the skin’s surface to insert a catheter into the diseased saphenous vein under ultrasound guidance. Once inside, the catheter is activated to generate thermal energy and collapse the diseased vein, rerouting the accumulated blood into healthier leg veins.
Endovenous Laser Ablation
Endovenous laser ablation is one of the earliest minimally invasive vein treatments for chronic venous insufficiency. The vein doctor makes a small incision on the skin’s surface to insert a catheter with a laser fiber into the diseased vein under ultrasound guidance. Once lodged in place, the laser fiber generates laser energy to collapse the damaged vein, restoring effective blood circulation to the heart.
VenaSeal
VenaSeal is one of the latest minimally invasive vein treatments for chronic venous insufficiency. The vein doctor injects a vein glue into the diseased saphenous vein under ultrasound guidance. The vein glue fuses the diseased vein’s walls, turning it into a hardened scar tissue eventually metabolized by the body. The accumulated blood flows into healthier leg veins. This treatment has only recently received FDA approval.
Ambulatory Phlebectomy
Ambulatory phlebectomy is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure for superficial varicose veins. The vein doctor makes small incisions on the skin’s surface to physically extract the superficial varicose veins. The incision marks gradually heal into scars that fade away from the skin’s surface. Your legs look and feel significantly improved.
Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is one of the most effective, time-tested, minimally invasive procedures for spider veins. The vein doctor injects a sclerosant solution into the spider veins. Sclerosant is a medicine that fuses the spider veins’ walls, turning them into hardened scar tissues eventually absorbed by the body. The spider veins gradually fade away from the skin.
We provide free insurance verification
Most minimally-invasive spider vein and varicose vein treatments are covered by insurance, especially if they’re deemed medically necessary. We provide free insurance verification before your appointment, so you’ll know the exact extent of insurance coverage before your procedure. Furthermore, our vein doctors actively consider your insurance coverage options while curating a treatment plan, helping you maximize coverage and minimize out-of-pocket costs.
