An introduction to Treatment Options
At VeinCare the goal in varicose veins treatment is to provide a
safe, effective and minimally invasive procedure with an
emphasis on cosmetic outcome. An appropriate patient specific
treatment is the standard in management.
Treatment for varicose veins is of different parts; initially treating
the larger inner vein with the reflux and then treating the visible
lumpy veins under the skin. Different minimally invasive
techniques allow for optimal treatment to be provided at a single
admission or at multiple stages thereby ensuring quicker
recovery and continuous mobility. These newer techniques can
even be offered to patients who had been refused surgery due to
age, previous surgery or associated medical conditions.
All surgeons may not offer the newer minimally invasive
treatments for varicose veins and a good outcome can be
obtained from any of these varicose vein operations as long as
the procedure is carried out to a good standard. Please note that
any opinions provided are that of the author of the website and
other surgeons will have their own views that might differ.
In clinics across Europe and USA the newer varicose vein
treatments are performed in multiple stages at an outpatient
setting. However, in Ireland according to current Health & Safety
policy and Health insurance company policy, these procedures
are performed in an operating theatre and in the hospital setting.
