Vein Clinics are established all over Texas and offer the latest treatments for both spider and varicose veins. The major reason why individuals in Texas want treatment of their veins is primarily cosmetic. However, associated with the growing number of individuals with complaints about their veins, has also seen an increase in the number of other health care professionals who now also treat vein disorders. The two most common vein disorders which frequently require treatment include spider and varicose veins.
Varicose veins: These large superficial veins in the leg may on occasion cause pain and heaviness in the leg. In others there may be no symptoms but the problem may be cosmesis. There are a number of methods available to treat varicose veins. However, the newer minimally invasive methods are fast becoming the treatment of choice for many individuals. Endovenous laser therapy is now being performed as an outpatient all over Texas. The procedure is done under local anesthesia. It entails the insertion of a laser probe through a small needle hole in the varicose vein. When the laser is heated, it causes collapse of the vein which then disappears over time. Another related procedure is the Closure procedure. Both these procedures can be done within 30-45 minutes and there is very little downtime. Most individuals recover rapidly after the procedure.
Spider veins: In Texas, almost every spa and clinic offers laser therapy for the treatment of these tiny "star shaped" veins. The laser beam is pointed at the spider veins and erases them. A number of spider veins can be treated in a matter of minutes. However, most individuals requires a few sessions for the best results. The major side effect of a laser session is a mild sun burn like effect. This usually resolves over a few days.
The cost of treating spider and varicose veins in Texas is slightly variable and ranges between $200-500 depending on the severity of the condition.
