Varicose Vein and Spider Vein Treatment in Sycamore, IL
At Gilvydis Vein Clinic, we use a variety of methods and techniques to effectively treat and prevent the return of patients experiencing vein disease. Each tailored method targets different kinds of veins found along the legs, effectively limiting the pain and discomfort often associated with vein disease by improving blood circulation.
Sclerotherapy
Used to treat varicose veins found along the legs, this treatment targets veins found below the surface with the help of ultrasound equipment. Considered a minimally invasive technique, the treatment is administered by injecting a chemical solution into the veins to effectively cut off blood flow to that area.
Endovenous Laser Ablation
Most often used to treat veins not seen from the surface of the skin, endovenous laser ablation is a treatment that targets large veins found deep in the venous system. This procedure is performed with a laser which seals off an unhealthy vein’s blood supply. The dead vein tissue will then be absorbed by the body.
Radiofrequency Ablation
Also used to combat abnormal veins found deep in the venous system, this minimally invasive treatment method utilizes radio wave frequencies to heat and destroy abnormal veins in the system. Administered via needle, radio frequencies probe tissue surrounding the questionable vein, heating the area, and causing nearby cells to die. This effectively cuts off blood flow and the immune system eventually removes the dead cell tissue.
VenaSeal
Often called endovenous adhesive ablation, this mode of vein treatment is similar to others in that it seeks to restore healthy blood flow by severing abnormal veins from regular blood circulation. To increase healthy blood flow, this treatment is administered by using a laser or radio frequency to seal off the varicose vein, eliminating the possibility of blood having the opportunity to circulate through the damaged tissue.
Understanding the Symptoms of Vein Disease
1. Painful, Achy Legs
Are you experiencing leg pain or aches throughout the day? You may have vein disease. While leg discomfort isn’t uncommon, especially after sitting or standing for long periods, those with vein disease may find the pain to be unbearable. This feeling may be accompanied by leg fatigue and heaviness. Compression stockings and elevating one’s legs are great ways to achieve temporary relief.
2. Swollen Ankles and Legs
Significantly swollen ankles and legs are related to fluid buildup in the body’s tissue. This condition is called edema and portrays visual indicators by way of swollen skin. Most commonly found on the arms and legs, this is a clear sign that the veins in your legs are not functioning properly. Swelling can be mild but is known to worsen over time and throughout the day. Individuals with sedentary lifestyles and office jobs (sitting and standing) are more likely to suffer from this condition.
3. Protruding Veins
Varicose veins can be hard to diagnose on one’s own. However, there is one clear indication that you may be suffering from vein disease: swollen and distorted veins that slightly rise above the surface of the skin. The often bulging and twisted veins appear blue/purple and are a result of weak valves within the veins. Feelings of itching and burning may accompany this symptom as well.
4. Restless Legs At Night
The nagging urge to move your legs is a condition called restless leg syndrome (RLS). RLS can be a genetically predisposed condition, however, there is evidence that your environment can contribute to this symptom by way of iron deficiency in the brain. Often accompanied by tingling and itching sensations, this symptom results from abnormal blood flow throughout the legs, leading to nerve irritation, most commonly experienced at night.
5. Skin Changes
Skin discoloration, thickening, or scaling are all clear signs that you may have an abnormal vein condition. Over time, vein disease may darken the appearance of your legs to a reddish-brown color, while also inflaming and roughening the skin in certain areas.
Sclerotherapy for Vein Treatment in Sycamore, IL
Gilvydis Vein Clinic offers a variety of vein treatments but specializes in minimally invasive sclerotherapy. Our personalized method ensures you receive the best treatment tailored to you and your needs, so you walk out of our office with the ability to live a full life free of leg pain and discomfort. By injecting sclerosant into your varicose vein, we effectively reroute your blood to circulate throughout healthy valves, eliminating side effects almost immediately.
This minimally invasive laser therapy treatment option offers a shorter recovery period, helping you get back to doing what you love sooner than other modalities. The treatment is administered by lasering shut unhealthy veins, effectively sealing them from blood flow circulation, and killing off the abnormal tissue.
Even though other treatment options exist, endovenous laser ablation is a straightforward method with limited risks often found to be highly effective for a vast majority of patients.
Some varicose veins are found deep within the venous system and require tools to see past the surface of the skin. Our ultrasound vein mapping treatment is a painless procedure that allows our vein doctors to assess whether or not your vein is healthy or unhealthy. A screening is required before the treatment to understand your symptoms better, which ultimately aids in our doctor’s ability to treat your discomfort.
