What Causes Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins form when too much pressure is put on certain parts of your body. These twisted veins invade your skin, particularly as you get older, appearing unpleasant and sometimes accompanied by discomfort. Certain factors, like your age, weight, and genetics, can increase your risk of developing this issue.
How Do We Address This Issue?

Contact us today to set up a consultation so that we can determine the best treatment plan you.
What to Expect From Treatments
Endovascular laser closure relies on a laser fiber that is threaded into a catheter and directed to the exact location of the vein. Heat generated from then closes the vein, permanently sealing it off. Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy relies on an ultrasound machine and a fine needle that injects a sclerosing solution directly into the affected vein. VenaSeal is an FDA-approved system that relies on a catheter and medical glue that is also injected directly into the the affected vein.
