If so, you may be eligible for non-invasive varicose vein treatment.

What is Venous Reflux?

Do you have significant bulgy veins that cause an unsightly appearance and sometimes persistent tingling pain?
You may be suffering from vein disease. Venous reflux, also called Chronic Venous Insufficiency, happens when your veins can no longer circulate blood properly due to a lack of elasticity.

Trusted by Patients Across Fort Myers

I was very impressed with the staff very nice helpful. Doctor took the time to evaluate another medical issue I am having. He has me taking care of my other medical issue first and in thirty days he will start my procedure. Most doctors do not care like that anymore..
Exceptional staff and personable. I felt very comfortable with the team right from the start: from the receptionist, to the ultrasound tech to the physician. Put me at ease and explained the treatment process. Asked me what my comfort level was for the treatment plan. If you are in need of medical care for your vein concerns, I would not hesitate to schedule a consult and meet with the care team. Thank you!
I am extremely pleased with my experience at Ft. Myers Vein Specialist. We waited so long for approval from my insurance company but in the end Nora was able to fit me in the schedule before the end of the year. Way to go Nora!! My procedures went smoothly. Dr. Jared was simply amazing. He explained everything about the procedure and kept conversation going as he proceeded . They even offered to play my favourite music "Reggae" during the procedure. The rest of the staff was amazing too. I would definitely recommend Ft. Myers Vein Specialist.

Why Fort Myers Vein Specialists?

Fort Myers Vein Specialists uses only the latest medical technology to bring you the comfort and convenience you deserve for your varicose vein treatment.
Using radiofrequency ablation (RFA), we apply Medicare-approved and safe, non-invasive procedures to help you remove varicose veins.
Unlike traditional methods such as ligation and stripping, our procedures do not require cuts over the veins. Our modern procedures also do not require tying the veins and stripping them, which can be prone to infection.

Why You Shouldn't Leave Your Varicose Veins Untreated

While some individuals think that varicose veins are just a cosmetic concern, varicose veins can bring severe complications if left untreated.
  • Stubborn pain: Since varicose veins cause reflux or pooling of blood on the veins, poor blood flow becomes the ultimate cause of cramping and aches. Oxygen transmitted by the blood can no longer reach proper areas, which leads to muscle cramping and aches near the veins.
  • Infections: Venous disease can bring leg ulcers, which may cause lesions on the skin. When an ulcer is exposed to bacteria, conditions may cause even more discomfort.
  • Bleeding: Varicose veins are closest to the skin. They often become embossed on your skin when inflamed, leaving them more susceptible to wounds.
  • Swelling: Since blood flow is restricted, blood isn’t pumping correctly through your legs. This can cause reflux, which leads your legs to swell.
  • Blood Clots: A clot usually forms since blood becomes pooled on your legs. The clots can detach and enter the bloodstream and cause life-threatening conditions such as deep vein thrombosis.
Don’t wait! Seek treatments while still early.

FAQs

Most frequent questions and answers

In your leg, you have two sets of veins. They are called deep veins and superficial veins.

Deep veins are in the deeper part of the leg where the muscles are, and superficial veins are right under the skin.

In a normal person, the blood circulates from the feet toward the heart in both veins.

When someone has venous insufficiency, the blood will go up the deep veins and back into the superficial vein.

The blood will start pooling in the superficial veins.

Since the superficial veins are closest to the skin, they will bulge and create varicose veins. They are often bluish or purple.

Spider Veins are essentially a smaller version of varicose veins. They are red, purple, and blue vessels that are also twisted and turning. They are most often seen on the legs, chest, or face.

No. Varicose veins can occur deeper in the leg, where one can’t see them. Varicose veins are classified under the spectrum of venous insufficiency disease.

Venous insufficiency disease causes leg discomfort, swelling of the ankles and leg, itching, and weariness. Other signs and symptoms may be prickling, cramping, aching, and heaviness of the lower limbs after prolonged standing.

Keep an eye out for these symptoms besides simply visible veins.

In short, no. Exercise and compression stockings may help reduce some of the symptoms of varicose veins, but usually, only medical treatment can eliminate a varicose vein.

Progression of varicose veins can be dangerous as they may later become venous ulcerations. When left without treatment, complications may include rashes, infections, bleeding, sores, and blood clots.

In rare cases, varicose veins can cause deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism, which is life-threatening.

1) Consult – We start you with a consultation where you will be listened to and encounter a friendly staff that will ensure you get the best care. On the first visit, that care will come from our expertly trained team, including a provider and an ultrasonographer.

2) Ultra Sound – After the consult, we move on to the assessment, providing you with an accurate diagnosis. You will get the same-day ultrasound and results on-site while you see the provider. This will get you back to life as swiftly as possible.

3) Treatment Plan – After we conclude our assessment, we will provide you with a treatment plan.

There are many different options, such as Endovenous Laser Therapy (EVLT), sclerotherapy, pneumatic compression, and more. We will ensure you get the perfect customized treatment based on your needs and outcome goals.

It is normal to have some minor discomfort during the procedure. We will do everything we can to make this as relaxing and comfortable an experience as possible. After the procedure, patients may experience minor bruising or discomfort in the area of the treated vein, which normally resolves in 3-4 weeks. Overall, patients report minimal pain/discomfort and can go back to doing the things they love.
Patients usually return to work and activities on the very same day. A very little downtime is needed for our treatments.
