Treatments

RADIOFREQUENCY ABLATION

Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a popular treatment option as it is minimally invasive. Treatment involves small incisions (no bigger than 2mm for minimal scarring) carried out under local anaesthetic, so you’re able to get back to your normal activities the same day. RFA has been clinically proven to cause less pain, less bruising and with fewer complications compared to conventional surgery and laser options. It’s also very effective – with long-term data proving its efficacy and occlusion rates over 91% at 5 years.

MICRO SCLEROTHERAPY

Micro Sclerotherapy is a procedure designed to improve the appearance of your varicose veins, with ultrasound guided injections. Sclerotherapy treatments are performed so that you can return to your everyday activities the next day. There is little to no anaesthetic required, as the procedure only uses a number of injections. It is a fantastic, effective option for very small veins for which other procedures have been deemed unsuitable.

AVULSIONS TREATMENT

Avulsions is a very popular treatment to remove large visible varicose veins for a clean cosmetic look. An avulsion procedure (also known as Phlebectomies) is a technique used to remove varicose veins via local anaesthetic. Very tiny cuts are made at the surface of the skin under local anaesthetic and the vein is removed. The cuts are so small, stitches are not needed and instead small paper stitches (steri-strips) are used.
