Phlebology is a specialized medical field dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of venous conditions, such as varicose veins, reticular veins, and telangiectasias. Though treatments for abnormal veins have existed for over a century, this discipline continues to evolve with innovative approaches. Phlebologists are highly trained medical experts who provide personalized, effective care tailored to the unique needs of each patient.
Why Choose a Phlebologist?
A comprehensive assessment by a phlebologist is key to addressing venous concerns effectively. Without precise diagnosis and expert care, treatments may fall short, leading to unresolved issues or further complications.
Your first consultation sets the stage for a customized care plan. During this initial meeting, your phlebologist will:
- Take a thorough medical history to understand your symptoms, previous treatments, overall health, medications, allergies, and surgical history.
- Conduct a detailed clinical examination, often complemented by ultrasound imaging to evaluate vein function and pinpoint problem areas.
At Dermapure, we emphasize a holistic approach to venous health, combining advanced diagnostic tools with a focus on your long-term well-being. Every patient benefits from a personalized treatment plan designed to align with their goals and lifestyle.
Modern and Personalized Treatment Options
Treatment options depend on the severity and location of affected veins. Our range of innovative solutions includes:
- Compression Stockings: Gradual pressure improves venous circulation and alleviates symptoms from mild to severe.
- Sclerotherapy: A specialized solution closes smaller veins, ideal for treating visible varicose and reticular veins.
- Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy: Ensures precise treatment of deeper or harder-to-reach veins.
- Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT): Uses laser technology to seal larger problematic veins, offering a minimally invasive alternative.
- VenaSeal™: An advanced adhesive solution to close damaged veins without the need for anesthesia or compression stockings post-treatment.
- Microphlebectomy: A surgical procedure to remove visibly prominent veins.
Preventing and Managing Varicose Veins
Healthy lifestyle habits can help prevent vein issues or slow their progression:
- Stay active with activities like walking, swimming, or cycling to support circulation.
- Maintain a healthy weight to reduce pressure on leg veins.
- Use compression stockings to alleviate symptoms and prevent worsening of vein conditions.
- Alternate between sitting and standing, and elevate your legs to improve circulation.
- Avoid excessive heat, such as hot baths and saunas, which can exacerbate venous insufficiency.
