It may seem like an easy solution to remove your varicose veins but think twice before you try Botox injections as a treatment option. There are numerous treatment options to remove varicose veins. A common misconception about treating the condition includes using Botox to remove the veins. Unfortunately, it is a myth that Botox is effective in removing Varicose Veins.
What is Botox?
Botox is a cosmetic treatment that helps to remove fine lines and wrinkles. Due to its nature it can seem to be a good treatment for removing bulging varicosities. Botox injections use a neurotoxin to relax the muscles in the area it is injected in. In vein disease the main issue includes poor blood circulation and injecting Botox into the varicose veins would not aid to improve blood circulation in the legs. It is important to realize that even though your varicose veins appear to be on the surface of your skin, they are in fact underneath your skin. This emphasizes that Botox would not be an effective treatment option for removing varicose veins. However, even though Botox as a treatment for varicose veins is ineffective it is still marketed as a potential treatment option by certain clinics. The best way to find out how to treat your varicose veins is to do research and to meet with a doctor to discuss your options.
At Canada Vein Clinics we offer various effective treatment options for this condition. At our consultations we will outline the most beneficial treatment option for you. The following treatment options are offered at our clinics:
- Endovenous Laser Ablation
- Treats chronic venous insufficiency by delivering laser energy through a tiny puncture in the leg, closing the beginning point of the diseased vein.
- Clarivein
- Insertion of a small, temporary rotating wire catheter directly into the vein. This catheter administers medication to close the vein.
- Venaseal
- A catheter is inserted into the target vein, and then a special liquid is inserted into the vein. Once the liquid reaches its destination, it begins to seal the vein
- Sclerotherapy
- Sclerotherapy involves injecting a solution directly into the vein.
- The sclerotherapy solution causes the vein to scar, forcing blood to reroute through healthier veins.
- The collapsed vein is reabsorbed into local tissue and eventually fades.

Consultation
by Alan. Trufal
Category: generalAfter 3 veinous ultrasounds, due to a swollen left leg and painful ankle when walking, I got my doctor to refer me to Canada Vein Clinic. Another ultrasound was done in house. I lucked into a virtual consultation with Dr. Matz himself, shortly after , fully expecting a recommendation for one of the vein treatments . Laser was what I expected. Much to my surprise , after being asked a number of questions relating to my symptoms, Dr. Matz suggested that there was no serious vein problem . He recommended an arterial ultrasound, which was also done in house , shortly afterwards. Before I forget , I would also like to thank the staff , and in particular Sasha , for all her help and concern. It appears that I do have minor vein and artery issues in my left leg. But , nothing that would require any intervention at this point in time. I cannot thank Dr. Matz enough. I believe he is a very honest , caring and most competent doctor . If I ever do need a vein procedure , I will return to have Dr. Matz do it.
VenaSeal
by Billie Johnston
Category: generalGreat experience at Canada Vein Clinic. I had the procedure done approximately 3 years ago to remove my varicose veins. It has taken me this long to leave a review because I wanted to be sure it lasted. It has! I was VERY nervous, but on the day of the procedure felt comfortable and confident that I was "in good hands". The actual procedure was not painful and not even uncomfortable. However, 3 or 4 days after, I did develop pain and discomfort (because I did not follow instructions). It was recommended that I apply Arnica and I did not. When I developed the pain, I did start applying the Arnica and within a day everything was as it should be. Highly recommend Canada Vein Clinic. Very professional, courteous, and informative. And my leg is still smooth and vein free after 3 years!
Venalseal
by Gisele McCann
Category: vein therapyI had contacted Dr.Matz at the Canada Vein Clinic to have removal of some very large veins reviewd. Since I have some medical issues, Dr.Matz suggested that the safest way to achieve this would be with the venaseal procedure. Ultrasounds confirmed that this would be the safest way. I was aware that it may not result in a 100% result. The procedure was basically pain free with a minimal amount of bruising and very fast recovery. Multible Ultrasound checks over 1 years Confirmed that the procedure was successful and improved with time. I submitted pictures for a telephone consultation with Dr.Matz and was assured that minor issues could be addressed at a later date. I was treated with the utmost professionalism by Dr.Matz and the clicic staff. I would recommend to get an assessment by Drt.Matz at Canada Vein Clinics. GMCC
Never felt better
by Lori Brummell
Category: vein therapyOne year ago I got my various veins done. My legs have never felt better. It is expensive but well worth it.
Venaseal Treatment
by Francesco Giordano
Category: vein therapyMy varicose vein was so bad that my calf was almost double the size of the other one. After my Venaseal treatment with Dr. Matz, it has shrunk down to the same as the other one with some minor bruising as the only evidence left of the varicose vein. All the staff at the clinic were friendly and kind. Overall it was a great experience.
