Four ways we can treat varicose & spider veins at RBVC:

1️⃣ EVLA (endovenous laser ablation) — for refluxing trunk veins
2️⃣ RFA (radiofrequency ablation) — similar to EVLA, uses radio waves
3️⃣ Foam sclerotherapy — for medium-sized varicose veins & tributaries
4️⃣ Microsclerotherapy — for fine spider veins & thread veins

The right choice depends on your veins and your goals — which is why a proper consultation matters.

Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA), explained 🩺

It's our gold-standard treatment for varicose veins:

🔬 A thin laser fibre is guided into the affected vein
🔥 Heat seals it closed
🩸 Blood naturally reroutes through healthy veins nearby
🚶 You walk out the same day

Typically takes around 45 minutes. Long-term success rates above 95%.

The pre-treatment hesitation — and what's on the other side 🤔

Most patients tell us they wish they'd booked sooner. The most common worries before treatment:
😟 "Will it hurt?" (Usually no — local anaesthetic only)
😟 "Will I lose work time?" (Usually a day or less)
😟 "What if it doesn't work?" (Modern treatments have 95%+ success rates)

Sound familiar? A free chat can put a lot of those worries to rest.

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) — and warmer months also mean more bare legs, so we tend to spot them.

Treatment is straightforward and available year-round.

Why we don't believe in "putting it off till winter" 🍂

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

Here's the thing — 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:

✔️ Map the veins in your legs
✔️ Identify which veins are leaking (refluxing)
✔️ Plan precisely targeted treatment

It's quick, painless, and gives us a clear picture of what's going on beneath the surface — 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 — 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.
