At VCLEW, We can determine whether or not you have vessel disease with a noninvasive and painless ultrasound scan.
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. It involves using heat to close off the affected vein, redirecting blood flow and improving symptoms. The procedure is quick, done on an outpatient basis, and has a high success rate. It allows for a quick recovery and has lower recurrence rates compared to traditional surgery.
During the RFA procedure, a thin catheter is inserted into the diseased vein through a small incision. The catheter emits radiofrequency waves that generate heat, causing the vein to contract and seal shut. This process redirects blood flow to healthier veins, relieving the symptoms of varicose veins.
Consult with our qualified healthcare professionals who can evaluate your individual case, discuss the benefits and risks, and determine if RFA is an appropriate treatment option for your varicose veins.
Compression stockings are specialized elastic garments designed to provide graduated compression to the legs. They are commonly used as a conservative treatment option for varicose veins and other venous disorders.
The primary purpose of compression stockings is to improve blood circulation in the legs by applying gentle pressure. The stockings are tighter at the ankles and gradually loosen as they move up the leg. This compression helps to reduce the diameter of the veins, enhance blood flow towards the heart, and alleviate symptoms associated with varicose veins, such as swelling, pain, and fatigue.
Compression stockings are available in different strengths or pressure levels, ranging from mild to firm. The appropriate pressure level is determined based on the severity of the venous condition and the recommendation of a healthcare professional.
It is important to wear compression stockings correctly and consistently for optimal effectiveness. Regular use of compression stockings can provide relief from varicose vein symptoms and help prevent the progression of the condition.
However, it’s worth noting that compression stockings are not a cure for varicose veins. While they can help manage symptoms, they may not eliminate the underlying venous issue. Consulting with our professional healthcare professional team to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your specific condition.
