You can’t stand the sight of your legs. They are marred by blue, bulging, snake-like veins that are wriggling across the surface. You never thought you would have problematic veins, but here they are. They ache and make your legs feel heavy. Worst of all, they look terrible. You’ve tried creams, walking and compression stockings. They aren’t going anywhere. Sclerotherapy is a treatment that can really boost your confidence as you deal with the discomfort and embarrassment of unwanted veins.
The Ins and Outs of Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is one of the most common forms of treatment that is advised to treat problematic veins. It involves having an injection of an irritant into the affected vein. The irritant causes the vein walls to collapse, effectively sealing off that vein so that blood can no longer travel through it and collect in it. It won’t happen overnight, but the blood will find a new path to travel and your veins will eventually be replaced by healthy tissue. Sclerotherapy is non-surgical and will spare you more complex alternatives that require invasive means.
Why Have a Sclerotherapy Treatment?
When you have problematic veins, you have faulty valves in the affected veins. The valves are supposed to close after your blood passes through the vein as it travels to your heart. In your case, the valve does not close. This allows blood to flow back in the wrong direction, where it collects in your vein. This causes a pool of blood to form. The blood continues to accumulate until your vein begins to bulge. If you do not treat your vein, it will only get worse. You will notice that the vein is bulging more and more. It isn’t going to go away without some form of treatment. Sclerotherapy is usually the easiest way to treat these types of veins. By making healthy choices following treatment, you may be able to avoid future issues with your veins.

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.
