Summary of the diagnosis and treatment of vein problems.

  • Step 1: Diagnosing the root cause of vein problems through a discussion of the symptoms, visual inspection, and vascular imaging tests.
  • Step 2: Curating a minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment plan for your specific needs, lifestyle, budget, and insurance coverage.
Are you concerned about what to expect from a minimally invasive vein treatment? In this article, a varicose vein doctor in Texas discusses the diagnosis and treatment process.
  • Step 3: Minimally invasive treatments of vein disease, such as radiofrequency ablation, endovenous laser ablation, or VenaSeal.
  • Step 4: Minimally invasive treatments for the superficial varicose veins and spider veins, such as ambulatory phlebectomy and sclerotherapy.
  • Step 5: You may leave the medical center after a quick discussion of the post-operative recovery guidelines.

Step 1: Diagnosing the root cause of vein problems.

Varicose veins and spider veins are usually symptomatic of underlying chronic venous insufficiency, a dangerous circulatory disorder in which your vein valves collapse, and blood accumulates in your leg veins. During your initial consultation, the vein doctor diagnoses the root cause of your vein problems through a combination of visual examination, discussion of the symptoms, and vascular imaging tests.

First, Dr. Jung discusses your medical history and talks about the symptoms of vein disease, such as restless leg syndrome, leg heaviness, frequent leg cramps, and throbbing leg veins. He’ll explain how these symptoms worsen at the end of the day or after long periods of sitting or standing.

Dr. Jung also examines your spider veins and varicose veins to identify other signs of vein disease, such as skin disease and discoloration or leg ulcers. After the discussion and visual examination, he administers a vascular imaging test to visualize the blood flow in your leg veins, identifying the diseased saphenous vein responsible for the varicose veins and spider veins.

Step 2: Curating a minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment plan.

Dr. Calvin Jung curates a treatment plan after carefully discussing all your treatment options. He’ll explain the benefits and potential drawbacks of all the minimally invasive vein treatments. He’ll also discuss your insurance coverage options, giving you all the information you need to make an informed choice. Based on the discussion, he’ll curate the ideal minimally invasive vein treatment plan.

Step 3: Minimally invasive treatments of vein disease.

Since varicose veins and spider veins are caused by underlying vein disease, the vein doctor must address the root cause of your problems before proceeding with the cosmetic treatments. If he treats the superficial varicose veins and spider veins without addressing the underlying vein disease, you may soon have a relapse.

Radiofrequency ablation, endovenous laser ablation, and VenaSeal are the best minimally invasive treatments of vein disease. During these procedures, the vein doctor delivers thermal energy, laser energy, or medical adhesives into the diseased saphenous vein, closing or collapsing the diseased vein’s walls. The accumulated blood flows to healthier veins, restoring smooth blood circulation to the heart.

Step 4: Minimally invasive treatments for the superficial varicose veins and spider veins.

After the primary vein treatment, the vein doctor addresses the superficial varicose veins and spider veins on the skin’s surface. The best cosmetic treatments for varicose veins and spider veins are ambulatory phlebectomy and sclerotherapy.

During ambulatory phlebectomy, the vein doctor creates incisions on the skin’s surface to physically remove the superficial varicose veins. The scars gradually heal and fade away. During sclerotherapy, the vein doctor injects a sclerosant solution into the spider veins, turning them into hardened scar tissues that eventually get absorbed by the body, fading away from the skin’s surface.

Step 5: Discussion of the post-operative recovery guidelines.

After the minimally invasive treatments of vein disease, the vein doctor discusses postoperative recovery guidelines. The vein treatment should conclude within an hour, and you can leave the medical center immediately after the treatment. You can even resume all your daily activities, but you may have to wear compression stockings for a few days or weeks to ensure smooth blood circulation.
