Your legs are made up of a network of veins. Healthy leg veins contain valves that open and close to assist the return of blood back to the heart. Venous reflux disease develops when the valves that keep blood flowing out of the legs and back to the heart become damaged or diseased. This can cause blood to pool in your legs and lead to symptoms such as pain, swelling, swollen limbs, leg heaviness and fatigue, skin changes and skin ulcers, and varicose veins.The following brief video explains how varicose veins form.
The Vein Clinic at Albany Surgical, PC offers the most advanced vein treatments available, including the VNUS Closure procedure for varicose veins. Your physician will choose the method that is most appropriate for your individual situation, following your evaluation and ultrasound studies, if needed.
Sclerotherapy is the injection of a chemical into the spider vein to cause the vein to close and scar internally, effectively causing the spider vein to "disappear". It is generally a highly effective treatment that has excellent cosmetic results, and little risk to the patient. The following educational news video discusses sclerotherapy for spider veins.
The most advanced treatment available for varicose veins (sometimes incorrectly spelled vericose) is the VNUS ClosureFAST procedure. VNUS Closure and the newer and quicker ClosureFAST procedure both work in the same manner. The VNUS ClosureFAST procedure is performed in our office under a local anesthetic, which ensures the procedure is virtually painless.
