Varicose veins are not only an unwelcome sight on your legs, but they can also be a health risk if left untreated. Microfoam chemical ablation in Westminster is a minimally invasive option for treating venous disease and reducing symptoms. The procedure utilizes a unique foam substance to fill and block varicose veins and improve blood flow.
The treatment is minimally invasive, requires little recovery time, and provides permanent results. After treatment, your blood flow and physical function should significantly improve, relieving your discomfort. If your varicose veins are causing you pain and disrupting your life, consider speaking with Dr. Pinsinski at Artemis Vein Center to learn about your medical treatment options.
Microfoam chemical ablation is a procedure used to treat varicose veins in a minimally invasive way. During the treatment, Dr. Pinsinski will insert a foam-like substance into your diseased veins through a small number of injection sites. The foam fills your faulty veins, resulting in a blockage that allows blood to flow to nearby, healthier veins.
Results of microfoam chemical ablation treatments are permanent, eliminating the need for future sessions. As your blood flow improves, symptoms such as skin discoloration, pain, and swelling subside for better physical comfort and functioning.
Since the treatment is minimally invasive, you may resume light activities the day of treatment, though it is necessary to wear compression stockings for two weeks. Further, it is vital to avoid heavy exercise for a week and walk at least ten minutes per day for one month after the procedure.
Varicose veins lay just beneath the skin and have become twisted and swollen due to weak, damaged, and aging vein walls and valves. If left untreated, varicose veins lead to painful swelling of the legs, inflammation, and skin discoloration.
You may be an ideal prospect for microfoam chemical ablation if you experience leg cramping, restless leg syndrome, or have leg ulcers. You may also benefit from this treatment if you are experiencing skin issues, such as rashes, itchiness, and dryness. Additionally, microfoam chemical ablation is an excellent option if you have previously undergone thermal ablation but need further treatment.
You may not be a good candidate for this procedure if you have a history of blood clots, reduced mobility, or arterial disease. Additionally, those undergoing chemotherapy or pregnancy or who have had major surgery in recent months do not qualify for the treatment. Further, some individuals with other vein problems may benefit more from thermal ablation treatments than microfoam chemical ablation.
Medical vein technology has advanced over the years, and the treatments are far less painful than they were in the past. Microfoam chemical ablation in Westminster is a minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins in the legs with no significant risks and minimal recovery time.
