If you are experiencing a vascular condition like varicose veins, you know how uncomfortable it can make you feel at times. First of all, you have the symptoms to contend with. They can include things like itching and burning. There can also be some numbness and tingling, and many people experience swelling around the ankles and in the lower legs. Or course, they can be painful as well. Secondly, they can hurt your self-esteem because of the impact they have on your appearance. When they are visible through the skin, they look like large blue streaks that often bulge out. If this sounds like your situation, consider a mini-phlebectomy procedure.
It is important to understand that venous treatment is not one-size-fits-all. The right course of action for you can best be determined after an evaluation that includes checking your vascular condition and reviewing your medical history. The size of the vessels that need to be removed can be a factor in determining the right treatment method as well.
Sclerotherapy is often done to remove problematic veins. However, this may not be feasible in all conditions, such as with larger veins. Mini-phlebectomy may be a better choice in these situations. The procedure is done by making very tiny incisions above the vein that is to be removed. A small hook is then inserted into the vessel through the incision. This hook removes the vein. Since the vein will collapse, even relatively large ones can be removed through very small incisions. In fact, the incisions are so small that no stitches are required.
Mini-phlebectomy procedures are much less invasive than the traditional vein stripping surgery that requires a hospital stay. Mini-phlebectomy treatments are done in the comfort of our office. Patients can immediately return home after it is complete.
Advantages that are provided by having a mini-phlebectomy procedure include the avoidance of surgery. If you want a way to alleviate the pain and negative appearance associated with varicose veins, you should ask our specialist at Canada Vein Clinics for more detail regarding how a mini-phlebectomy treatment could be of benefit, based on your current condition. You may find that you will receive the same benefits of surgery without having to endure the risks, downtime or discomfort associated with it.
Canada Vein Clinics has locations in Toronto, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Ottawa, Kanata, Orleans, Kawartha Lakes, Halifax, Dartmouth and Moncton. Contact us today to schedule a consultation for mini-phlebectomy.
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.
