At Hager Advanced Vein Care, we treat a wide variety of vein disorders.
SPIDER VEINS / SCLEROTHERAPY
Spider veins or telangectasias are small varicose veins located just beneath the skin. Most frequently found on the legs these veins are considered a cosmetic problem and their treatment is simpler.
VARICOSE VEINS / ABLATION TREATMENT
Varicose veins are superficial veins that have enlarged due to increased pressure in your veins caused by incompetent or leaking valves.
RETICULAR VEINS
Reticular veins, often called feeder veins, are the dilated blue and green veins beneath the skin surface. Although they can exist independently, they can also be an underlying problem that contributes to the appearance of surface spider veins.
VENOUS REFLUX
Venous insufficiency and reflux occurs in nearly 50% of adults to some degree and many suffer from pain, swelling and varicose veins. Treatment is similar to that of varicose veins.
TREATMENT OPTIONS
There are many ways to help correct these vein problems ranging from conservative treatment (elevation, compression stockings, exercise and weight control) to more extensive treatment (sclerotherapy, radiofrequency treatment, etc.)
