Why Sclerotherapy Treatment For Vein Disease?
Sclerotherapy is a great treatment for vein diseases. It involves injecting chemicals, known as sclerosing agents, into damaged veins. In addition to diminishing the appearance of varicose or spider veins, Sclerotherapy can also reduce pain or side effects. Varicose veins can cause itching, pain, cramping, and discoloration. Spider veins are smaller and less severe than varicose veins. Varicose veins are more common in women than in men, although anyone can get them.
How Does EVLT Treatment Help With Vein Disease?
Endovenous Laser Ablation Therapy (EVLT) is a procedure that makes use of catheters, lasers, and ultrasound for vein disease treatments. Moreover, this procedure is best for veins that are still relatively straight and untwisted.
Dr. Bacha starts the EVLT procedure by inserting a catheter into the injection site. Using ultrasound to see inside the patient, Dr. Bacha guides the catheter through the vein. The procedure uses laser energy through a concentrated beam of laser light delivered with razor-sharp precision directly to the affected tissue. This causes blood to stop flowing through the vein. During recovery, circulation will become more efficient, and the faulty vein shrinks and fades.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Are Varicose Veins?
Varicose Veins are one of the vein diseases people suffer from. They usually announce themselves as bulging, bluish cords running just beneath the surface of your skin and prevent blood to flow naturally. Varicose veins can cause skin discoloration because the blood is pooling in the veins for the long term.
Visibly swollen veins sometimes are surrounded by patches of flooded capillaries known as spider veins that are considered superficial varicose veins.
Besides a surface network of veins, legs have an interior, or deep, venous network. On rare occasions, an interior leg vein becomes varicose and may cause leg ulcers. Such deep varicose veins are usually not visible, but they can cause swelling or ache throughout the leg.
What Are Spider Veins?
Spider veins are damaged veins that appear on the surface of the legs or face. They are another vein disease that many people suffer from. Spider Veins are usually not painful or harmful. However, some people may wish to treat them for cosmetic reasons. They can be blue, purple, or red and may appear in the form of thin lines, spider webs, or branches. However, people sometimes also refer to them as thread veins. A range of treatments can remove spider veins or reduce their appearance. Extra body weight can place added pressure on leg veins and medical conditions. In The Legs, Spider Veins Can Occur When The Valves Inside The Veins Stop Working Properly. Veins Carry Blood Back To The Heart. Therefore, To Prevent Blood From Flowing Backward, They Contain A One-Way Valve That Closes Once The Blood Passes Through It.
What Is Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)?
DVT is a serious vein disase that’s caused by a blood clot forming in the deep leg veins. Deep vein blood clots typically form in the thigh or lower leg area, but they can also develop in other areas of the body. Other names associated with this condition may include Thromboembolism, Thrombophlebitis or the common name Blood Clots. Wearing compression stockings can prevent swelling and might lower your chance of developing clots. In addition, compression stockings also help with leg pain as they improve blood circulation and reduce swelling.
Dr. Bacha is an expert at identifying and treating DVT. most patients visit our clinic after diagnosis was made in the emergency room or by their primary care physician.
Ultrasound is one of the most common tests for DVT, and Dr. Bacha may use blood tests to evaluate the presence of disorder that increases the risk of blood clots formation. However, we do not do routine cancer screening as those types of testing are usually done by your primary care physician, CT scan, and MRI scans are rarely used to evaluate pelvic venous circulation and pelvic congestion syndrome.
Does Insurance Cover The Treatment?
Unfortunately, no insurance company pays for plasma treatment. like most of the procedures that are performed at the Anti-Aging Institute, these type of procedures are considered experimental and cutting edge, furthermore, the safety and efficacy of plasma related procedure has not been established by the FDA. However, there have been several studies regarding the safety and efficacy of this type of treatment along with plenty of testimonials on how safe and effective the procedure is.
