Varicose and Spider Veins

November 17th, 2011

Used to be, the only way to get rid of varicose veins was to undergo a painful surgical procedure known as vein stripping.  Lots of people live with varicose veins because they are afraid that is the only treatment available.  Not so any more.  For the last ten years, we have been successfully treating varicose veins with comfortable non-surgical techniques.  Instead of cutting veins with a knife (think heart bypass surgery…), we can shrink them with medicine, and close deeper larger ones with a laser fiber through a needle, using only local numbing medicine (think angioplasty, but in reverse…).   You can drive yourself home after the procedure, which usually takes less than one hour.  Even the most severe gnarly-looking varicose veins can be treated non-surgically, making your legs look and feel better.  Many people with varicose veins and leg cramps, after treating the veins, report striking improvement in cramping and pain.

The most common response I hear after treatment is, “wow, that wasn’t bad at all – I can’t believe I waited so long to do this!” Now that the weather has cooled, come see us and think about wearing shorts again.    We have simple techniques for eliminating spider veins on the face legs and body as well.  Injecting spider veins is a fine art – believe me, you don’t want to be injected by a novice who has been doing it for a few months.  I specialize in injection therapies, and have been eliminating veins for over 10 years, every day.  It is important to be injected correctly, to eliminate the source of the veins (i.e., so they do not return for a long time!) as well as to reduce the number of required treatments.

Have a great holiday season,
