What Vein Treatments are available?

We present non-surgical, walk-in-walk-out varicose vein removal solutions, without the lengthy downtime; which we are able to offer to 99% of visiting patients.  Suited to different varicose vein cases, our varicose vein treatment portfolio includes EVLA (EndoVenous Laser Ablation), Sclerotherapy, Phlebectomy and VenaSeal.  Your Consultant Vascular Surgeon will advise the best treatment, or perhaps combination of treatments, for you after detailed assessment, including an ultrasound of the affected area, which we provide free to all of our patients. Please see each of our treatments detailed below:
EVLA: Performed under local anaesthetic, EVLA uses ultrasound technology to locate the affected vein, before using laser heat in order to collapse the veins wall and target the cause of the problem. Recommended by NICE, the treatment has a success rate of 95.4% after five years.

Sclerotherapy: In Sclerotherapy, a chemical is injected into the vein affected, which damages the varicose vein, causing it to close off, and then shrink and disappear. The treatment is available in liquid or foam form. Liquid sclerotherapy is suited to small veins which are not associated with underlying venous reflux while foam sclerotherapy is appropriate for larger varicose veins.

Phlebectomy: The treatment involves the insertion of a hook into the affected area, through very small incisions, which is used to gently remove the varicose veins. The incisions made are so small that no stitches are needed.

VenaSeal: A closure system, VenaSeal varicose vein treatment uses a safe medical adhesive to seal the vein. A quick and painless treatment, VenaSeal offers shorter recovery and does not require patients to wear compression stockings after treatment.

Looking to treat Thread Veins instead?

As well as our innovative varicose vein treatments we also offer solutions for thread veins, including Sclerotherapy and Cutera CoolGlide. In Sclerotherapy, the affected veins/capillaries are injected with a sclerosing agent resulting in the veins walls becoming sticky, and preventing blood from passing through. With no blood passing through the vein, the capillaries will collapse and become absorbed by the body, and gradually disappear from view. In the Cutera CoolGuide laser treatment, intense light is directed at the thread veins. This causes the blood in the veins to coalgulate, and divert back into veins found deeper below the skins surface. The previous thread vein is consequently gradually absorbed by the body.
