Varicose Veins

Varicose Veins

Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that often appear on the legs and can cause discomfort, swelling, and aching. While sometimes dismissed as a cosmetic issue, varicose veins are often a sign of underlying vein disease that requires medical attention. At Medical Art Center, we provide advanced, minimally invasive treatments to address both the symptoms and appearance of varicose veins.

Understanding Varicose Veins


Varicose veins develop when the valves inside the leg veins fail to function properly, causing blood to pool instead of flowing efficiently back to the heart. This increased pressure stretches the veins, making them enlarged and visible under the skin.

Common symptoms include:

  • Bulging, rope-like veins in the legs
  •  Heaviness or aching in the legs
  •  Swelling, cramping, or throbbing pain
  •  Restless legs or nighttime discomfort

Diagnosis and Evaluation

Our specialists begin with a comprehensive evaluation to understand the extent of your vein disease. This may include:

  • Physical examination of the legs
  • Ultrasound imaging to assess blood flow and identify vein dysfunction
  • Review of symptoms and medical history

Treatment Options for Varicose Veins

Following protocols like those at Premier Medical Group, we offer a range of minimally invasive treatments to safely and effectively treat varicose veins:

  • Sclerotherapy → A special solution is injected into the vein, causing it to collapse and fade. Best for smaller varicose veins and spider veins. 
  •  Laser Therapy → Focused light energy is applied externally to seal off smaller superficial veins.
  • Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) → A catheter delivers heat to the inside of a vein, closing it and rerouting blood to healthier veins. 
  •  Vein Removal (Ambulatory Phlebectomy) → Small incisions are used to remove larger, bulging varicose veins close to the skin.

Benefits of Treatment

With modern techniques, varicose vein treatment is:

  • Quick and effective → Procedures are often performed in less than an hour. 
  •  Minimally invasive → Most require only local anesthesia and tiny incisions, if any. 
  •  Low downtime → Patients usually return to normal activities the same day. Cosmetic and medical → Treatments not only improve leg appearance but also relieve pain, swelling, and heaviness.
