Varicose Vein Treatment

Often, treatment for varicose veins aims to reduce the visibility of disfigured veins.

We offer a diverse range of treatment choices, including: 

  • Phlebectomy to remove varicose veins near your skin’s surface
  • Sclerotherapy, a minimally invasive procedure to remove large, unsightly veins
  • Laser procedures to lighten your veins

 

Treatment for Chronic Venous Insufficiency

When blood doesn’t properly flow through your veins, you are at a higher risk for blood pooling in your legs.

Treatment for chronic venous insufficiency helps increase blood flow and may include a combination of the following treatments:

  • Compression stockings
  • Lifestyle changes, including weight loss and increasing physical activity
  • Stents
  • Procedures to seal or remove damaged veins

 

Deep Vein Thrombosis Treatment

DVT treatment is usually urgent, as a blood clot that’s lodged in your leg can break off and travel to your lung. To prevent this from happening, your doctor may recommend clot-dissolving medications or a filter to catch coagulated blood.

Your doctor will explain the benefits of each treatment and help you prepare for any special procedures.
