Are you dealing with unwanted varicose veins? There is good news in that the varicose veins in your legs can be removed, and you have several options for treatment. It is important to have your veins tested and diagnosed before a varicose vein treatment is selected. During a consultation with our specialist at Canada Vein Clinics, your veins can be evaluated and the right treatment may be prescribed.
Varicose veins affect more women than men. This is partly because pregnancy and other hormonal issues contribute to weakness in the veins. However, both men and women can develop them.
There is no one-size-fits-all treatment for varicose veins and the smaller spider veins. Some of the most common treatments are:
- Sclerotherapy is a treatment that involves the injection of a special solution into the affected vein. This solution irritates the vein wall and weakens the tiny valves inside the vein that help push the blood along. When this happens, the vein will collapse and the blood will flow through a healthier vein. You may be asked to wear compression stockings for a set amount of time after the treatment.
- Laser varicose vein treatment is also very popular. During this treatment, laser light is used to shrink the vein, causing it to eventually disappear from view. This is a minimally-invasive procedure that is performed in the comfort of our office. Only a topical anesthetic is used, and no invasive surgery is involved.
- Mini-phlebectomy is often used to treat larger varicose veins that are unable to be treated with sclerotherapy. During this procedure, tiny incisions are made in the skin. This allows for special hook-like tools to be inserted in order to gently remove the problematic vein from the area of treatment.
These are just some of the most popular procedures used to treat varicose veins. During a consultation at Canada Vein Clinics, you can learn about all of your options for varicose vein treatment, including which procedure is best for you. There are several safe and effective treatments that can help you to have smooth legs again.
For your convenience, Canada Vein Clinics has offices in Toronto, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Ottawa, Kanata, Orleans, Kawartha Lakes, Halifax, Dartmouth and Moncton. We invite you to schedule a consultation at one of our locations to learn more about how your varicose veins can be treated. Don’t spend another day covering up your legs due to 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.
