Fighting Varicose Veins with Sclerotherapy and Doppler Ultrasound
Показать описание
Fighting varicose veins with sclerotherapy, ultrasound doppler.
At our greenford clinic we advise patients that varicose veins can surface as the result of insufficient venous circulation. Affected veins appear as purple lines under the skin that protrude over the surface with time. This is not an aesthetic look and patients at our aesthetic medicine clinic in London complain that they can be painful and cause complications such as inflammation, thrombophlebitis, and even pulmonary embolism. Therefore, it is necessary to treat varicose veins. A good alternative to surgery for varicose veins is sclerotherapy, which closes the varicose veins from the inside.
Sclerotherapy is a procedure that enables the practitioner to close varicose veins. It consists of injecting a special fluid into the vein, closing the blood vessels and excluding them from the bloodstream. It is a minimally invasive method compared to surgical interventions of varicose veins treatment. At the Eskulap Clinic in London, we have specialized ultrasound machines, thanks to which sclerotherapy and doppler treatment can be performed under the supervision of a specialist radiologist, which additionally increases the safety and therapeutic effectiveness of sclerotherapy method. We are one of the few clinics in the UK that use ultrasound before each aesthetic medicine treatment to plan and accurately assess the effects.
What are the indications for the treatment of varicose veins closure, sclerotherapy?
The most common problems faced by ultrasound patients at greenford aesthetic medicine clinic are spider veins and varicose veins on the legs at various stages. Typical situations include recurrent varicose veins, varicose and leg ulcers, varicose veins after laser or surgical treatment. Therapeutic reasons for treatments are obvious but more and more patients require procedures from a aesthetic perspective.
Sclerotherapy can be combined with other methods, such as laser treatment of varicose veins or cryotherapy. The procedure is short, painless, and performed on an outpatient basis, it allows you to almost immediately return to your daily activities in accordance with the doctor's recommendations.
What is the procedure for removing varicose veins and sclerotherapy?
In order for perform sclerotherapy, make-up or medications such as varicose ointment should not be applied to the skin before the procedure. You should be well hydrated before the procedure. Do not epilate the limbs immediately before the procedure. We start sclerotherapy and echosclerotherapy with a medical interview and ultrasound examination - vein doppler, during which blood vessels and veins are examined, prepared for marking and closing. The doctor then determines the concentration of the fluid that will be injected into the vein. The patient lies down during the procedure. To help close the blood vessel lumen by emptying the vein of blood, you may be asked to raise the treated limb above the level of the heart. The next step is to inject the sclerosant into the lumen of the vein. The doctor makes punctures in the previously indicated places, and the number of punctures depends on the thickness of the vein and the size of the treated area (there may be many of them when treating varicose veins in the legs). After the procedure, put on a pressure dressing. The applied compression therapy accelerates the closure of blood vessels and prevents the decongestant from reaching a healthy state, which is important for maintaining proper circulation.
After surgery for varicose veins, sclerotherapy.
• We do not use saunas, jacuzzi,
• do not sunbathe, as it increases the risk of long-term discoloration,
• Do not use the sauna or hot tub as this can promote the formation of small, dilated red veins,
• Avoid strenuous physical activity and exposure of the lower limbs to strong sunlight for two weeks after sclerotherapy treatment, as this may lead to permanent brown discoloration of the skin - loose clothing covering the lower limbs is recommended in the post-treatment period,
• If discoloration appears after the sclerotherapy treatment, we recommend the treatment with chemical peels and whitening substances.

The cost of one sclerotherapy treatment is £ 150. See the full price list of aesthetic medicine treatments.
