Hot weather + spider veins = the question we hear all summer 🌑️

"Will heat make them worse?"

The honest answer: heat doesn't cause spider veins, but warm weather can make them more noticeable (blood vessels dilate) β€” and warmer months also mean more bare legs, so we tend to spot them.

Treatment is straightforward and available year-round.

Living with vein discomfort? You're not stuck with it. πŸ’ͺ

Today's treatments are nothing like the old vein-stripping procedures you might remember from years ago. Modern techniques like EVLA and RFA are:

✨ Minimally invasive (no general anaesthetic)
🩺 Walk-in / walk-out
⏱️ Usually under an hour
πŸ’™ Suitable for most patients

Why we don't believe in "putting it off till winter" πŸ‚

A common misconception: "I'll deal with my veins once the cold weather hits."

Here's the thing β€” treatment is comfortable and quick in any season. Plus, starting now means you can enjoy autumn walks and Christmas events with healthier, more comfortable legs.

What does our ultrasound actually show? 🩻

Duplex ultrasound is the gold standard for diagnosing vein problems. In your consultation, we use it to:

βœ”οΈ Map the veins in your legs
βœ”οΈ Identify which veins are leaking (refluxing)
βœ”οΈ Plan precisely targeted treatment

It's quick, painless, and gives us a clear picture of what's going on beneath the surface β€” meaning your treatment plan is tailored, not guessed at.

How would you feel if you stopped thinking about your legs every day? 🦡❀️

For many patients, that's the most surprising change after treatment β€” not the visible difference, but the freedom from constant low-level worry.

If aching, heaviness, or visible veins are part of your daily background noise, you don't have to live with them.

Vein myth or fact? πŸ€”

🚫 "If they don't hurt, varicose veins aren't a problem."

The truth is more nuanced. Some varicose veins really are purely cosmetic. Others quietly cause swelling, restless legs, skin discolouration β€” even ulcers β€” long before they're painful.

The only way to know which camp yours fall into? A proper assessment.
