How does the session work?
The phlebologist marks the veins while standing (if necessary, under ultrasound for those invisible to the eye), then performs a series of microinjections: the foam form of sclerosant is effective for larger tributaries. Afterwards - eccentric compression with rollers and knitwear: around the clock for 3-5 days. The veins harden and fade within weeks; Pigmentation along the way is temporary. The interval between sessions is 2–4 weeks. Important: with reflux along the trunks, the source is first eliminated (phlebectomy/thermoobliteration), otherwise sclerotherapy will cause a relapse.
Indications
- varicose veins with reflux along the great/small saphenous vein - radical treatment;
- varicose tributaries and reticular veins - sclerotherapy;
- trophic disorders, previous thrombophlebitis of the superficial veins;
- aesthetic discomfort, heaviness and swelling in the evening.
Modern treatment of varicose veins
The goal of treatment is to eliminate the reverse flow of blood (reflux) through incompetent veins and remove varicose veins: combined phlebectomy solves this surgically in one procedure and remains a reliable method for severe transformation; sclerotherapy closes the tributaries and reticular veins with injections without incisions. The methods are combined according to the ultrasound map. After treatment, blood flow is reorganized to healthy deep veins; proper compression and active walking are the keys to quick recovery and lasting results.
