Specialized venous care
Individualized assessment and treatment for superficial venous conditions—from symptomatic varicose veins to small veins that may be an aesthetic concern.
Understanding venous disease
Venous conditions can range from small, cosmetically concerning spider veins to symptomatic varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency. The aim of treatment is to relieve symptoms, improve venous function, help prevent complications and, where relevant, achieve a natural aesthetic result.
Conditions we treat
Enlarged, twisted veins most commonly develop in the legs. They may be visible without discomfort or cause symptoms and complications.
Veins may reappear after previous treatment. Examination and duplex ultrasound help identify reopening, progression of disease or new abnormal pathways.
These small superficial vessels are often an aesthetic concern, but may occasionally be linked to discomfort or an underlying venous problem.
Recommendations depend on location, vessel size and depth, surrounding anatomy and individual goals.
Your vein assessment
Clinical findings and, when medically indicated, duplex ultrasound form the basis of an individualized treatment plan.
Your history, symptoms and goals are reviewed in detail.
The legs and visible veins are examined to assess their distribution and identify swelling, skin changes or other signs of venous disease.
This painless, non-invasive examination evaluates vein structure, blood-flow direction and valve function. It helps identify venous reflux or obstruction and guides treatment planning.
Conservative management
Some patients may initially benefit from non-procedural measures. These can help reduce symptoms, but do not replace assessment when significant reflux, skin changes or complications are suspected.
Regular walking and physical activity
Avoiding prolonged immobility
Elevating the legs when appropriate
Weight management
Individualized compression therapy
Skin care when chronic venous changes are present
Treatment journey
Your symptoms, medical history and treatment goals are discussed. A clinical examination and, when indicated, duplex ultrasound are performed.
The findings and suitable options are explained clearly, including expected benefits, limitations, possible risks and alternatives.
Many vein procedures can be performed using minimally invasive techniques. The setting and anaesthesia depend on the selected procedure and the individual patient.
Follow-up is arranged according to the treatment performed. Additional ultrasound assessment or staged treatment may be recommended when medically appropriate.
Frequently asked questions
Your personal recommendation may differ according to examination and ultrasound findings.
No. Treatment depends on symptoms, clinical findings, complications and personal concerns. An assessment determines whether observation, conservative management or an intervention is appropriate.
The most suitable method depends on the affected veins, ultrasound findings, previous treatments, symptoms and overall health. Treatment is therefore selected individually.
No. Visible veins may be primarily cosmetic, but varicose veins can also cause pain, swelling, skin damage, inflammation, bleeding or venous ulcers.
A successfully closed or removed vein is no longer functional. However, venous disease can progress and new varicose veins may develop over time, so follow-up can remain important.
The number of sessions depends on the extent of the condition and the selected treatment. Small superficial veins may require several staged sessions.
Recovery varies according to the procedure and the individual patient. Specific advice about walking, work, exercise, compression and wound care is provided after treatment.
Minimally invasive procedures are designed to limit skin incisions. Temporary marks or, less commonly, small permanent scars remain possible and are discussed before treatment.
