What Causes Varicose Veins Anyway?
First, what exactly are varicose veins?
Varicose veins happen when the valves inside the veins in your legs stop working properly. These valves are supposed to keep blood flowing in the right direction, back up to your heart. When they malfunction, blood starts going backward and pools inside the vein, causing it to get swollen and enlarged.
This backed-up blood makes the veins stretch and bulge out. That’s when they become visible under the skin as squiggly, ropy varicose veins.
A number of factors can increase your risk of developing varicose veins:
- Family history – VARICOSE VEINS can run in families. If your parents had them, you’re more likely to get them too.
- Age – VARICOSE VEINS become more common as you get older. The valves inside veins can weaken over time.
- Weight – Being OVERWEIGHT puts more pressure on your veins. This extra strain can cause valves to malfunction.
- Pregnancy – During PREGNANCY, the volume of blood in your body increases. The added pressure of your growing baby can damage valves.
- Standing a lot – Jobs that require STANDING for long periods of time, like nursing or hairdressing, can lead to varicose veins. Gravity makes it harder for blood to flow up the legs.
- Injury – Leg INJURY can damage vein valves. VARICOSE VEINS may show up after a broken leg has healed.
As you can see, there are a number of factors that play into varicose vein development. But thanks to Varithena treatment, you can take your legs back no matter what caused your varicose veins.
Why Live with Varicose Veins When You Can Have Varithena® Treatment?
If you have varicose veins, you know they do more than just look unsightly. They can cause a number of uncomfortable symptoms including:
- Aching, throbbing legs
- Heaviness and fatigue in your legs
- Swelling, especially in your ankles and feet
- Burning or itching skin over the varicose veins
- Restless legs, especially at night
On top of being downright uncomfortable, varicose veins also put you at risk for dangerous blood clots. And if they keep getting worse, varicose veins can lead to chronic venous insufficiency, skin damage, bleeding, ulcers and infection.
With so many downsides, varicose veins are something you’ll want to take care of sooner rather than later. The old approach used to be vein stripping surgery. But who wants to go under the knife when you don’t have to?
Today, we have better options like Varithena® treatment. It’s a minimally invasive procedure that doesn’t require any cutting. Best of all, it offers amazing results and lasting relief.
How Does Varithena® Vein Treatment Work?
Unlike surgery, Varithena is a walk-in, walk-out procedure. It uses a medication called polidocanol to collapse and close varicose veins. The polidocanol is mixed into a microfoam solution that our vein specialist will inject right into your problem veins.
The medication irritates the lining of the veins, causing them to collapse. Once injected, the varicose veins will scar, seal shut and eventually be reabsorbed into your body.
The whole process only takes about 20-30 minutes, since we can treat multiple veins in one session. And you’ll be able to see results right away! Over the next few weeks, as the varicose veins heal, you’ll notice even more improvements.
Benefits of Varithena® Over Surgery
There are so many reasons to choose Varithena over vein stripping surgery:
- It’s minimally invasive. No painful incisions!
- Treatment is FAST—in and out in 30 minutes or less.
- You’ll see results after your very first session.
- It works on veins of ALL SIZES, large and small.
- There’s no general anesthesia required.
- There’s little to no downtime before resuming your normal activity.
- It doesn’t leave scars like surgery does.
- Risks and side effects are minimal compared to surgery.
Our Varithena® Technique for Lasting Results
Here at Allure Medical, our skilled vein specialists have perfected the Varithena technique. We customize the injections to target only your specific varicose veins. This avoids accidentally closing off healthy veins.
We also use ultrasound guidance to view the veins and make sure the medication goes exactly where it should. This precision ensures we get rid of the varicose veins for good.
After your session, we’ll have you put on compression stockings to help stop bruising and swelling. We recommend wearing the stockings for 5-7 days. Staying active, avoiding long periods of sitting, and keeping your legs elevated can all help minimize side effects too.
Within just a couple weeks, you’ll really start to notice the amazing results. No more painful, unsightly varicose veins! Your legs will look and feel better than they have in years.
Could I Be a Candidate for Varithena®?
Wondering if you might be eligible for Varithena treatment? There are a few factors we consider to see if you’re a good candidate:
- You have varicose veins causing symptoms like achiness, heaviness or swelling.
- You haven’t had recent vein surgery or sclerotherapy treatment.
- You don’t have a current blood clot in the treatment area.
- You don’t have a known allergy to polidocanol or other ingredients.
- You aren’t pregnant or breastfeeding.
The best way to find out if you’re a candidate is to come in for a FREE leg screening. Our skilled vein specialist will examine your legs and discuss all your treatment options.

We Can Help with Spider Veins Too!
In addition to treating varicose veins, we also offer solutions for spider veins. These are smaller, red, purple and blue veins that branch out and look like spider webs under your skin.
While spider veins don’t usually cause discomfort like varicose veins, they can still make your legs look unsightly. At Allure Medical, we have two excellent treatments for banishing spider veins for good.
Sclerotherapy – This involves injecting a saline solution into the vein. The solution irritates and collapses the vein, eventually causing it to fade. Treatment takes just 30-60 minutes and you’ll notice improvements quickly. Generally 2-5 sessions are needed for best results.
Laser Treatment – Using laser energy, we can selectively target and destroy spider veins. You may feel a warm, prickling sensation as the laser zaps each vein. Some redness may last a few hours after. On average, you’ll need 1-3 sessions spaced a month apart.
Which treatment we recommend for spider veins will depend on the size, location and number of veins to be treated. We’ll help you decide which option is right for your individual needs.
