If varicose veins, spider veins, or other venous concerns are causing you discomfort or self-consciousness, the expert vein doctors at Vanishing Veins can help. Our doctor and specialist offer complete vein care in Springfield, MA, and at our vein clinic in Longmeadow, MA, utilizing the latest technologies and techniques. Here’s more about our effective treatments tailored to your specific vein issues.
What is Sclerotherapy?
One of the most common treatments our doctor or specialist provides is sclerotherapy, which eliminates spider and smaller varicose veins. This minimally invasive procedure involves injecting a solution directly into the affected veins. The solution irritates the vein’s lining, causing it to swell shut. Over time, the vein becomes scar tissue that simply fades from view.
Though often effective alone, sclerotherapy is most effective when combined with other treatments, such as radiofrequency ablation. This combined approach allows us to target underlying venous problems and visible surface veins precisely. Our vein doctor will determine the ideal personalized treatment plan based on your lifestyle, individual needs and a comprehensive evaluation.
Sclerotherapy requires no anesthesia or downtime. After treatment, you may experience mild bruising, swelling, or tenderness, but you can resume normal activity with some limitations based on each person’s lifestyle. Treatment is typically needed for optimal spider vein removal, with maintenance sessions recommended every few years.
The Types of Veins We Treat
From tiny spider veins to large bulging varicose veins, no vascular concern is too small or too large for our experienced vein specialists. Some of the common venous problems we successfully treat include:
Spider Veins
These web-like clusters of bluish-purple veins under the skin’s surface most often appear on the legs and feet. Sclerotherapy is the gold standard for removing spider veins.
Reticular Veins
Slightly larger than spider veins, these bluish-green veins form complex networks below the skin. We eliminate them with sclerotherapy, laser, or light therapy.
Varicose Veins
Twisting, enlarged superficial veins ranging from blue to flesh-colored. We use radiofrequency ablation, sclerotherapy, ultrasound sclerotherapy, or ambulatory microphlebectomy to remove varicose veins.
Deep Vein Thrombosis
A blood clot obstructing circulation, often causing severe leg pain and swelling. We treat DVT with medications, compression stockings, or procedures.
No matter your specific vein disorder, our vein specialists in Suffield, CT, have advanced solutions to eliminate it. Our detailed ultrasound testing and comprehensive expertise ensure precise diagnosis and treatments tailored to your needs.
