At-home treatment myths
It may seem that as quickly as your varicose veins appeared, they can also disappear on their own. Unfortunately, this is not the case! Varicose veins will not go away without treatment, and it is in fact better to get your legs treated as soon as they become an issue as the longer you wait for treatment, the more complications can arise.
The predominant reason that people develop varicose veins is due to their family history. There are also lifestyle changes that you can make in order to lower your chances for developing the condition. Lifestyle changes include keeping active, not standing or sitting for prolonged periods of time, maintaining a healthy diet (click here for a link to a blog that examines foods you should avoid eating), and wearing compression stockings.
Are there topical creams that remove varicose veins?
There are many topical cream options out there that may seem like an affordable option to remove varicose veins but be aware that while these creams may provide immediate relief, they are not a permanent solution. Because of the origin of varicose veins even though they may appear to be on the surface of the skin, they are not, and therefore topical creams will not be sufficient to fix the root of the problem. After using a cream that promises to remove your veins for good you will find yourself continuing to struggle with this condition.
Does massaging work to remove varicose veins?
As with the topical creams, it is impossible for massaging to truly get to the root of the problem as varicose veins are underneath the skin’s surface. This at-home remedy for varicose veins may seem like a good option to remove some of the symptoms of the condition such as the pain and swelling of your legs but this will only provide a short-term relief solution. If you do suffer from these symptoms it is important to get a specialist to examine your legs in order to effectively treat your condition.
The best way to ensure you are getting rid of your varicose veins once and for all is to have a specialist examine your legs. At Canada Vein Clinics we always cultivate a personalized treatment plan for each patient, this ensures that each patient will have the most beneficial treatment option for their Varicose 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.
