Introduction
Varicose veins are a common condition that can affect both the comfort and appearance of your legs. Fortunately, modern medicine offers a variety of solutions, ranging from traditional remedies to advanced minimally invasive techniques such as endovenous laser treatment.
In this article, we outline the most effective treatments for varicose veins available at our clinic, so you can make an informed decision about the best approach for your leg health.
Modern Treatment Options for Varicose Veins
Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a simple, highly effective, and minimally invasive option, especially suited for small, superficial varicose veins. The treatment involves injecting a special solution directly into the affected vein, causing it to close and be naturally absorbed by the body over time.
Advantages:
- Quick, non-surgical procedure
- Affordable (cost varies based on the number of sessions)
- Visible aesthetic improvement within weeks
Laser Treatment
Laser therapy is one of the most advanced and reliable minimally invasive methods for treating varicose veins. It uses targeted laser energy to seal the affected veins, redirecting blood flow to healthy vessels. This option is ideal if you are looking for a fast and safe treatment with minimal disruption to your routine.
Advantages:
- Short recovery period
- Minimal scarring
- Performed on an outpatient basis
Other Minimally Invasive Techniques
Beyond sclerotherapy and laser surgery, there are other modern treatment options such as radiofrequency ablation, vapor therapy, VenaBlock, and steam thermal ablation. These methods provide effective alternatives to traditional surgery and are valued for their quick recovery times and low risk of complications.
How Varicose Vein Treatment Works
Regardless of the chosen technique, the primary goal is to close and eliminate the problematic veins. At VenArt Clinic, all procedures are performed by our doctors under ultrasound guidance to ensure maximum accuracy.
Typical steps include:
- Identifying affected veins using ultrasound
- Applying the chosen treatment (laser, sclerotherapy, etc.)
- Post-procedure monitoring and personalised recovery recommendations
Recovery After Varicose Vein Treatment
Most patients can return to their normal activities within one to two days following the procedure. Wearing compression stockings for one to two weeks can help reduce swelling and speed up the healing process.
At VenArt Clinic, our team is here to provide all the information and guidance you need for a smooth recovery.
Cost of Varicose Vein Treatments
The price of treatment varies depending on the method, the extent of the condition, and the clinic performing the procedure. For example:
- Sclerotherapy: Lower cost, best for small varicose veins
- Laser surgery: Higher cost, but delivers fast and lasting results
For an accurate evaluation and detailed cost estimate, we recommend booking a consultation with one of our specialists in vein care.
