Varicose Vein Treatment

Minimally Invasive Relief for Leg Pain and Visible Veins

  • Varicose veins are more than just a cosmetic issue. They can cause persistent aching, heaviness, leg cramps, itching, and in some cases, skin discolouration or ulceration. Left untreated, they may worsen over time, affecting your comfort, mobility, and confidence. Fortunately, modern treatments offer lasting relief without the need for traditional surgery.
  • Dr. Praveen offers image-guided, minimally invasive varicose vein treatment that targets the problem veins directly, without incisions or hospital admission. The procedure involves using ultrasound to guide a small catheter into the affected vein. Once in place, the vein is gently sealed using radiofrequency energy, laser therapy, or a specialised medical foam. The treated vein is naturally absorbed by the body over time, while blood flow is rerouted through healthy surrounding veins.
  • This approach eliminates the need for vein stripping surgery and allows patients to return to daily life with minimal interruption. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, usually takes less than one hour, and patients are often able to walk out of the clinic the same day. For optimal healing, a compression stocking may be recommended for a short period.
  • Patients typically notice a reduction in leg heaviness, pain, and swelling within days. Over time, the visible veins fade and the legs look and feel healthier. This treatment is especially helpful for those whose lifestyle or work involves long hours of standing, or for those who have experienced discomfort and cosmetic concerns for years but avoided surgery due to fear or inconvenience.
  • Whether your concern is physical discomfort or restoring confidence in your appearance, varicose vein treatment offers a safe, proven, and well-tolerated solution. Dr. Praveen tailors each treatment to your symptoms and vein condition, ensuring a personalised plan that focuses on comfort, results, and long-term leg health.
