Varicose Veins Removal in Leicester

Varicose vein removal is a medical treatment designed to reduce discomfort and improve the appearance of swollen, twisted veins, usually found in the legs. These veins can cause pain and swelling, and, in some cases, lead to more serious issues like ulcers or blood clots. There are various treatment options for varicose veins, such as sclerotherapy, laser therapy, endovenous laser ablation (EVLA), and venectomy. Sclerotherapy involves injecting a solution into the veins to make them collapse and disappear, while laser treatments use focused light to close off the veins. EVLA is a minimally invasive procedure where a laser fibre is inserted into the vein to shrink and seal it. These treatments can enhance the appearance of the legs, relieve symptoms like aching and swelling, and prevent future problems related to veins.

Varicose veins manifest as swollen and twisted veins, typically found on the legs and feet. These vascular irregularities not only detract from one’s appearance but also signal underlying problems with the venous valves. Over time, they tend to grow in size and become increasingly distended. The veins beneath the skin, which supply blood to these visible varicosities, suffer from valve dysfunction.

This is a prevalent condition, affecting one in three individuals at some point in their lives. It presents a range of concerns, from cosmetic issues like unsightly thread veins to more severe symptoms such as large, painful varicose veins and even the development of skin ulcers. The impact of varicose veins varies from person to person; some may feel self-conscious about wearing shorts, while others may experience bleeding and ulcers.
