Clinical Philosophy
Visible veins do not mean that every symptom is caused by a vascular problem.
A careful assessment brings together your history, symptom pattern, physical examination and ultrasound findings. When needed, neurological, spinal, lymphatic, musculoskeletal and other causes should also be considered.

Treatment
Treatment options begin with assessment.
These are concise summaries of common options. The most appropriate approach still depends on individual anatomy and clinical assessment.
Medical adhesive treatment
VenaSeal
Depending on the individual case and treatment, compression stockings may not be required after VenaSeal. If recommended, they are usually worn for up to 1 week.
Laser treatment
Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA)
Laser energy closes a refluxing truncal vein. Tumescent anaesthesia is required. Compression stockings are usually worn for about 2–4 weeks, with recovery or rest of about 2–3 days. Individual advice may vary.
Injection treatment
Sclerotherapy
A sclerosant is injected into the target vein so that it gradually closes. It is commonly used for spider veins and selected tributary varicose veins. Suitability and the number of sessions depend on the vascular pattern and clinical assessment.
