The most common treatment for vein disease is sclerotherapy. This involves injecting a solution directly into the affected veins, which helps to close them and prevent further blood flow. Through repeated treatments, the vein will eventually be completely sealed off. After a successful sclerotherapy treatment, you should begin to see improved circulation and symptoms of your vein disease should start to decrease significantly.
Ambulatory phlebectomy is another option for treating vein disease. This procedure involves making small cuts in the skin near the affected veins and then using special tools to remove them. It is usually performed under local anaesthetic and takes only around an hour. Recovery time can range from one day up to a few weeks depending on the severity of the condition being treated. You may experience some swelling and bruising after this procedure however, it is generally well tolerated with minimal risks or complications.
Endovenous laser treatment (EVLT) is another option for treating vein disease which uses lasers to target the affected veins from within the body, causing them to collapse and seal shut. EVLT is a minimally invasive procedure which can be performed in just one session providing quick relief with minimal discomfort or downtime for patients. The success rate of EVLT in treating superficial venous diseases has been reported as high as 98%, making it an effective way of alleviating symptoms caused by various types of venous insufficiency.
