If you find that the appearance of your legs prevents you from wearing shorts or enjoying a day at the beach, we have great news for you. Thanks to modern medical techniques, spider and varicose veins can now be effectively treated, allowing you to feel comfortable and confident in your own skin.

Varicose veins are enlarged blood vessels that often appear swollen and twisted, resembling a blue rope-like structure. As a sufferer of varicose veins, you may experience symptoms such as tiredness, heaviness, aching, burning, itching, or cramping in your legs. On the other hand, spider veins are smaller, thin blood vessels that appear red or blue and lie close to the surface of the skin. They can appear as short, unconnected lines or in a spider web or cluster pattern.

The root cause of varicose veins is the improper functioning of the one-way valves in the veins. These valves are designed to prevent the backward flow of blood against gravity as it travels back to the heart. When the vein walls weaken, the veins stretch and hinder the valves, causing blood to pool in the veins. This pooling stretches and damages the veins. Spider veins, on the other hand, can be caused by blood backup, hormone changes, sun exposure, or injuries.

At Randwick Vein Centre, we offer sclerotherapy (micro-injection) as a highly effective technique for treating both varicose and spider veins. This procedure involves the use of tiny needles to inject a medication (sclerosing solution) directly into the unwanted veins. The solution acts on the inner lining of the veins, causing them to collapse and shrink, preventing further blood flow. Over time, the body absorbs the unused veins, resulting in a significant reduction in their visibility.

It is important to note that sclerotherapy should only be performed by trained medical professionals. The skill and techniques used by the clinician play a crucial role in achieving optimal results. Our principal doctor, Dr. Joe Chan, is an experienced sclerotherapist who specializes in treating various types of vein problems through sclerotherapy. He is a member of the Australian & New Zealand Society of Phlebology and the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine. Additionally, Dr. Chan has a special interest in skin cancer management and holds a professional certificate in skin cancer medicine and surgery from the University of Queensland.
