Types of Varicosities
Spider veins
Spider veins are those unsightly,
superficial veins that are blue, purple, or red in color (photo).
There is a safe and virtually painless
treatment for them, called sclerotherapy,
which does not involve surgery.
Varicose veins
Varicose veins are those bulging, more
profound veins that are often accompanied by pain, itching, fatigue,
heaviness, and swelling (photo).
They are caused by a disease called venous
incompetence, in which the vein valves have lost their ability to
function properly, thus impeding the proper circulation of blood back into the
bloodstream.
After finding the exact location and
seriousness of the incompetence, the physician uses an effective, fast
and safe procedure called ambulatory
phlebectomy to eliminate the problem at its source.
Venous Incompetence
Complications
Complications arise when a varicose disease has
been mistreated or left untreated for a long time.
Complications cause skin pigmentation,
heavy swelling, itching, ulcers, and pain.
Depending on each case, our patients are
able to recover almost immediately thanks to advanced
surgery techniques.
