Healthy leg veins contain valves that open and close assisting in the return of blood from the legs to the heart:

Thanks to modern technology, venous reflux and varicose veins can now be treated with a minimally invasive procedure known as ClosureFast. Not only is this procedure quick and relatively painless, as opposed to surgery, but it has also shown great success rates with nearly a 95% reflux free rate at 5 years follow up.

Spider veins and reticular veins are small, web-like, blood vessels that are easily visible on the surface of your skin. They can be red, blue, or purple and are commonly associated with varicose veins. Spider veins range in diameter from 0.1 to 1 mm. Reticular veins are dilated bluish sub-dermal veins measuring between 1 and 3 mm in diameter. When veins are more than 3mm in diameter, they are referred to as varicose veins. Varicose veins, although still visible through the skin, are usually larger, raised blood vessels that are swollen.
|
Although spider and reticular veins are considered a cosmetic problem, they are often a result of underlying venous reflux in the larger veins. When reflux develops in the larger veins and results in the veins becoming bigger, the pressure is often transmitted to the nearby smaller veins under the skin and these manifest as spider veins and reticular veins. Therefore it is imperative that while seeing a patient with spider veins, the clinician also rules out underlying reflux in the larger veins which may be the cause of the problem.
|
It is therefore prudent to see a vein specialist to get varicose veins treated.

Most patients report having limited to no scarring, bruising, or swelling following the procedure and many patients feel very little to no pain during the ClosureFast™ procedure. Our surgeon will give a local anesthetic to numb the treatment area.
