Vein Health Clinic Announces New Treatment Options for Varicose Veins

New treatments reduce the risk of scarring and pain that are commonly seen with traditional surgery, VeinHealth.com.au reports

Melbourne, Victoria – June 1, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

Varicose veins plague individuals around the globe. It is estimated that 30 percent of women and ten percent of men have this condition, and there are numerous causes. Obesity plays a role in the development of varicose veins, and this condition tends to run in families. Individuals who sit or stand for long periods of time are also more prone to developing this condition. Thankfully, varicose veins treatments allow men and women to address this problem, one that may have a negative effect on their self esteem.

“In the past, individuals found they were limited in terms of their treatment options with regard to varicose veins. Advances in technology now offer different solutions for people, thus every patient can find the one that best meets their needs. The new treatment options come with a reduced risk of scarring and less pain. With the help of Vein Health Clinic, individuals are now discovering they can treat their varicose veins using surgical and non-surgical techniques, depending on what the doctor feels will work best in their situation,” Peter Paraskevas, founder of Vein Health Clinic, announces.

Sclerotherapy involves the injection of a solution into varicose veins to scar and close the vein. As time passes, typically within a few weeks, the veins treated with the solution fade. No anesthesia is required for this procedure, reducing the risk associated with the procedure, and this treatment tends to be effective. However, some veins may need repeat treatments to obtain the desired results.

“For those veins that remain hidden beneath the skin, an advanced form of sclerotherapy may be recommended. Ultrasound guided sclerotherapy is similar to sclerotherapy in that the sclerosant solution is injected into the veins. However, the ultrasound allows the doctor to see veins that may not be visible to the human eye and ensures adjacent structures aren’t affected. Furthermore, the ultrasound helps in determining the root cause of the varicose veins,” Paraskevas continues.

Sclerotherapy is only one of many options available to those who have varicose veins. Others include radiofrequency ablation and VenaSeal. Each treatment option comes with advantages and disadvantages, thus an individual needs to discuss their complete medical history with their doctor to determine which treatment will best work for them.

“Vein Health Clinic wants every patient to be satisfied once their treatment is complete. For this reason, the clinic continues to offer new treatments for varicose veins, spider veins and more. Contact the center to set up an appointment. Our staff will be happy to discuss your issues and how we may be of help to you,” Paraskevas states.
