What does a phlebologist do?

Varicosis

Varicose veins are a disease that thinns the venous wall and increases the lumen of the veins.

When the work of the veins is disturbed, blood begins to circulate chaotically, enters the surface vessels and turns into the characteristic "spiders" - twisting veins that protrude to the surface.

Today varicosity is defined as a real scourge: studies show that it occurs in 30-40% of women and 10-20% of men over 18 years of age. Varicose veins are often diagnosed in middle-aged and elderly people.

Treatment of venous system diseases

If you see a phlebologist immediately, the pathology is completely eliminated. In other cases, the specialist uses conservative or surgical treatment, as well as sclerotherapy.

There are several ways of surgical treatment:

radiofrequency obliteration of blood vessels. The structure of the veins is restored from the inside;
endovenous occlusion by impulses. The vessels are affected by the flow of steam, which allows penetration into any part of the veins;
laser coagulation of the veins. A special laser is used for treatment;
venaseal technique. Vascular valves are glued together by means of biological glue;
Varadi method. The vessel is removed, which shows 100% efficiency of treatment.
