The Latest In Vein Care : Restoring Health to Your Legs

Do you have tired, achy legs? Fatigue, swelling, leg heaviness and discomfort may be the symptoms of a vein circulation problem called venous insufficiency. It’s the same condition that can cause varicose veins, discolored skin, night cramps and even restless leg.

Today, the treatments and techniques used to improve both vein health and appearance continue to evolve. At VEINatlanta, experienced surgeons offer a full range of treatment options and provide great outcomes. All evaluations and treatments are done in one location in an office setting using local anesthesia. You can resume normal activities like driving and walking right away with zero down time!

 

MODERN, ADVANCED TREATMENT FOR EVERY VEIN PROBLEM

Varicose Veins

va_varicoseVaricose veins are enlarged, bulging blue veins that are close to the surface of the skin. Because valves in the veins are damaged, they hold more blood at higher pressure than normal.

Treatment Options:

  • Radio freqency (RF) Ablation uses radiofrequency energy to help improve circulation. The surgeon inserts a catheter into the vein under ultrasound guidance. The vein is numbed and then closed down by thermal ablation.
  • Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) is a similar technique which uses laser energy. This procedure is also performed in the office.
  • Ambulatory Micro-Phlebectomy (AP) is used to treat bulging and visible varicose veins. Using a special technique under local anesthesia, the vein is carefully removed in small sections.
  • VenaSeal is the first FDA approved superglue treatment to permanently treat venous insufficiency (reflux), which causes bulging varicose veins.

 

Spider Veins

va_spiderSpider veins are small thin, red, blue or purple veins on the surface of the skin. They can be an isolated cosmetic issue or the tip of the iceberg indicating deeper, more significant venous disorders such as chronic venous insufficiency.

Treatment Options

  • Sclerotherapy uses an FDA-approved medicine called Asclera (polidocanol) which is injected into the vein to close the vein down.
  • Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy uses ultrasound to help deliver polidoconol foam in the deeper larger feeder veins.
  • Surface Laser Therapy is also used to treat spider veins. VEINatlanta uses the most state-of-the-art lasers available.

 

Facial Veins AND REDNESS

va_facialFacial veins and redness are dilated blood vessels found on the nose, cheeks, chin and around the eyes. They can be seen as thin, red spider veins, blue reticular veins, areas of redness or rosacea. These veins and patches of redness are primarily a cosmetic issue.

Treatment Options

  • Surface laser therapy can be used to treat facial veins. The laser energy causes the vessels to close down, ultimately being absorbed and disappearing.
