Unwanted veins can impact your life in more than one way. Depending on the particular condition and its severity, you can suffer from symptoms that include things like pain, burning sensations and itching. Sometimes, as in the case of varicose veins, there can be some swelling as well.
In addition to the symptoms, unwanted veins can have an undesirable effect on your appearance. These effects are usually caused by either varicose veins or spider veins. Varicose veins typically develop in the legs as the veins become enlarged and are no longer sufficient in keeping the blood flowing the way it should. When they are enlarged, the blood will begin to pool inside them. This causes them to become visible through the skin, and they are usually blue. They can also bulge out and look like cords that have been placed under the surface.
Spider veins are most common on the legs and face. While they seldom cause any pain or other symptoms, they are unwanted because of the impact they have on the appearance.
They look like fine lines on the skin that are frequently entangled, going off in various directions. They get their name because they can often resemble the legs or web of a spider. Just because they do not produce any physical discomforts does not mean their presence should be taken lightly. They can greatly diminish a person’s self-esteem. If you are in a situation like this, you should consider having those unwanted veins treated at our state-of-the-art vein clinic.
Our vein clinic has a number of treatment methods at our disposal. Most of them are non-invasive or minimally-invasive and can be done in the comfort of our office without the need for a hospital visit. One of the most widely used methods today is laser therapy. During this procedure, the heat from the laser safely destroys the targeted veins. The tissue that remains starts to fade from view and will typically be gone within weeks when the body has absorbed the tissue.
If you are looking for the treatment method that has been in use the longest, you will likely want to consider sclerotherapy. During these treatments, an injectable solution, rather than laser energy, is used to get rid of the targeted veins. The solution causes the blood inside to become thick and the walls of the vein to collapse. The vein is then absorbed by the body.
If you have unwanted veins, you should set up a time to visit Canada Vein Clinics in Toronto, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Ottawa, Kanata, Orleans, Kawartha Lakes, Halifax, Dartmouth or Moncton. During this consultation at our vein clinic, you can look at all the available treatment options and choose what is right for you. Contact us today to schedule an appointment!
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.
