Operation of varicose veins

Varicose veins are dilated veins, mostly in the lower limbs. During classic varicose vein surgery, the entire enlarged, non-functioning section of a large or small vein (saphenous vein) is surgically removed from the venous blood circulation. Thanks to this procedure, the recurrence of varicose veins is prevented, which is the biggest advantage of the classic surgical procedure. The operation is suitable for extremely enlarged veins. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia.

Varicose sclerotization

It solves the aesthetic problem of enlarged vessles of the lower limbs. During sclerotization, a sclerotizing solution is injected into the vessel located on the surface. The latter subsequently causes irritation of the vein wall and its inflammation, the result
is the collapse of the vein wall and its absorption.

This procedure does not require hospitalization. Depending on the extent of the varicose veins, 1 to 3 sessions are usually required, the duration of the treatment is approximately 15-30 minutes. One session is limited to a maximum of 20ml of sclerosing agent.
After the procedure, compression stockings are worn for 4 to 6 weeks.

it is possible to perform a classic plastic surgery without the use of mesh
in local anesthesia.
