Compression socks or stockings are a form of compression therapy that are used to prevent varicose veins or any venous diseases from further developing, they are also worn after the Sclerotherapy procedure to keep pressure on the veins so blood doesn't return. The slight pressure of the socks/stockings help your muscles relax, so blood can flow freely, they also can be worn to ease swelling and aches. If you are interested in purchasing a pair of compression stockings/socks ...you can call us or visit our website for further information (416) 929-0834 https://www.theveininstitute.com/ #Compressionstockings #Compressionsocks #Sclerotherapy #loveyourlegs #varicoseveins #spiderveins #phlebotomy #varicoseveinstreatment #veintreatment #VeinClinic #Toronto #ontario

Sclerotherapy involves injecting a solution directly into the vein. The injected solution causes the vein to scar, which forces the blood to reroute through healthier veins. The collapsed vein is then reabsorbed into local tissue and eventually fades. It effectively treats varicose and spider veins and we here at #TheVeinInstituteofToronto think its the best way to treat small varicose veins.

One of our most popular treatment options at The Vein Institute of Toronto, the VenaSeal! VenaSeal The VenaSeal Sapheon Closure System is a unique, minimally invasive treatment that uses a safe-for-the-body medical glue to quickly and effectively treat varicose veins (venous reflux disease). Using ultrasound, a doctor will guide a tiny catheter through a small access site in the skin and into the diseased area of the vein. Next, the VenaSeal dispenser delivers a very small... amount of medical glue to close the vein. Once the affected vein is closed, blood is immediately re-routed through other healthy veins in the leg. Unlike other treatments, VenaSeal does not require anaesthesia to be injected into the leg via multiple needle sticks (tumescent anesthesia) and, because there are no pre-procedures drugs involved, patients can return to their normal activities right after the treatment. Unlike heat-based procedures, with VenaSeal there is no risk of skin burns or nerve damage. VenaSeal usually does not require any post-treatment pain medication or uncomfortable compression stockings. See more

What is the difference between an artery and a vein? Arteries are thick-walled vessels which carry blood from the heart to the periphery. Veins are thin-walled vessels which carry blood from the periphery back to the heart. There is a third kind of vessel, called the lymphatic vessels which are tiny, extremely delicate vessels that carry proteins and lymphatic fluid from the periphery back to the heart.

Symptoms: Burning or itching are the most common symptoms of spider veins. Incidence and Causes:... Nearly 70% of all women and 30% of men will develop some type of venous disorder. No one knows exactly the cause of spider veins, but several factors, including heredity, are believed to cause a person to be more likely to develop them. Oral contraceptives, hormone changes and therapy, sun exposure, and the natural aging process also may contribute to their development. Spider veins may also be related to rosacea and other trauma to the skin, or may be heredity. Contributing factors include: Heredity Pregnancy Hormonal changes Advancing age Trauma Sun-exposure

Facial Vein Therapy The Vein Institute of Toronto Technique Description of Facial Veins:... Telangiectasias or spider veins are dilated superficial veins. Facial spider veins generally appear on the nose, chin or cheek area and often occur in rosacea.

To understand venous problems, you need to know about the anatomy and physiology of the venous system. You will learn about deep veins, superficial veins, connecting or perforating veins, the venous pump, and the importance of venous valves. If you read the next short section and take a look at the vein diagram (below), you will know more about venous disease than most physicians. Venous Anatomy and Physiology What is the difference between an artery and a vein?... Arteries are thick-walled vessels which carry blood from the heart to the periphery. Veins are thin-walled vessels which carry blood from the periphery back to the heart. There is a third kind of vessel, called the lymphatic vessels which are tiny, extremely delicate vessels that carry proteins and lymphatic fluid from the periphery back to the heart. What are the important veins of the legs? There are three different kinds of veins in the legs. The deep veins run down the center of the leg (dark blue in the picture). In the calf, there are three pairs of deep veins. The superficial veins are closer to the skin. Two have names: the great saphenous vein, and the small saphenous vein. There are short connecting veins between the superficial and deep veins. These are called perforators because they penetrate the fascia of the leg. The heart. The heart pumps oxygenated blood returning from the lung out to the periphery of the body. How does blood get back from the periphery to the heart? The muscles of the foot and the calf constitute the venous pump. When you walk using your calf muscles thus compressing the veins in your feet, the blood is propelled upward toward the heart. If you sit motionless for a long period of time, such as riding in a car or plane, blood accumulates in your feet, ankles and lower legs causing swelling. A one-way street As you walk, blood is pumped up the veins by the calf muscles. As you prepare to take the next step, gravity intervenes and tries to pull the blood back down. Venous valves are located throughout the veins of your legs to prevent the backward or downward flow of blood (reflux). If these valves are damaged or defective, reflux occurs; that means that the blood flows the wrong way down the vein. This is the cause of venous hypertension (high blood pressure in the veins) and the fundamental cause of all the problems associated with varicose veins or chronic venous insufficiency. If you would like to have a consultation please contact the Vein Institute, Torontos premier clinic for leading edge, state of the art treatments for leg varicose, spider and facial veins. See more

If you suffer from problems related to varicose and spider veins, you are not alone.
