Complete guide about the treatments of
Varicose Veins:
The varicose veins are responsible for the appearance of visible veins, very
unsightly, which seem to be about to protrude under the skin of the lower
limbs. They are due to dilation of the superficial veins of the thighs and
legs. The blood return is poor and the blood begins to stagnate in the vessels.
Endovenous laser: to eliminate varicose veins
Safe and mildly traumatic, this Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins in Legs
eliminates almost all varicose veins for perfect legs. Of all the operative
techniques, this method is the least traumatic.
The principle of the Endovenous laser:
The endovenous laser treats unsightly surface varicose veins. It acts on the vein
inside the thigh or saphenous varix. Of all the operative techniques, this
method is the least traumatic. This is particularly a good alternative to
stripping. The heat emitted by the laser alters the vein. It breaks down and is
eliminated by the body over time (between three to six months). The Best
Surgeon for Varicose Veins is the vascular surgeon or phlebologist which
operates varicose veins under ultrasound control.
How is the intervention done?
The laser fiber is introduced inside the vein, most often at the knee. The
infiltration of local anesthetic forms a thickness of water around the vein to
protect the surrounding tissues of the laser and to avoid any risk of burns.
The specialist activates a laser shot every three millimeters, removing the fiber
as it goes outward. If necessary, the varicose branches are removed by
phlebectomy using tiny incisions. A compression stocking is placed.
What are the causes of varicose veins?
Some population groups are more likely to develop varicose veins than
others. Standing without moving or stomping would promote the appearance
of the disorder. Thus, the trades of restoration, hairdressing or sales, requiring
standing, are among the professions at risk. Certain behaviors indeed favor the
appearance of the varicose veins:
 The fact of remaining standing, already evoked, but also to remain a long
sitting still.
 The sedentarity and the absence of sport practice.
 The overweight.
 The pregnancies.
 The menopause.
 Age.
Symptoms and diagnosis of varicose veins: The main symptom is the
appearance of these dilated veins visible under the skin of the legs. Sometimes
it's the only one that exists. In other cases, varicose veins are accompanied by

legs, itching, burning sensation.
The persons with varicose veins can also experiencing "impatience": a need to
move to fight against a feeling of numbness of the legs occurring during a
period of immobility. Since varicose veins are a venous disorder, phlebologists
or angiologists, specialists in
the venous system and its
pathologies, are the most
qualified to make a diagnosis.
